Automatic - ZHU x AlunaGeorge

Speed: 122 bpm Recommended bpm range: 120 to 125 bpm The DJ's Take: Can't lie - I like this guy's music. Equally good for dancing or driving; a smooth and refined sound that should play well to a wide range of crowds. And that sax solo at the end could've easily undermined everything, but it works here. Try mixing with key-compatible tracks like Sugar - Robin Schulz ft. Francesco Yates , Fire Burning - Sean Kingston , Sugar - Maroon 5 , and Shut Up and Dance - WALK THE MOON . Download the song: Amazon

Hold Up, Wait A Minute - ZHU ft. Bone Thugs-N-Harmony & Trombone Shorty

Speed: 116 bpm Recommended bpm range: 115 to 120 bpm The DJ's Take: Besides the obvious MJ references and West Coast vibe, I feel like this beat would've fit in pretty well on Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveSounds. Also, cool to hear Bone Thugs-N-Harmony; haven't seen anything from them since high school. Just good, solid dance music anyone can get down to - try mixing with tracks like the following: Cake By The Ocean - DNCE , How Deep is Your Love - Calvin Harris + Disciples , Talking Body - Tove Lo , She Came To Give It To You - Usher , Blurred Lines - Robin Thicke , Take Your Time (Do It Right) by The S.O.S. Band , Ghost Town - Adam Lambert , Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepsen Download the song: iTunes Amazon

Working For It - ZHU & Skrillex & THEY

Speed: 100 bpm Recommended bpm range: 100 to 105 bpm The DJ's Take: Just listening to this makes me feel a little cooler. We actually covered it in the last edition of the newsletter , and I think it's worth a download for the new music portion of your program. If you're staying key-compatible, try mixing with Saved - Ty Dolla $ign ft. E-40 , This Is How We Do It - Montell Jordan , Not For Long - B.o.B ft. Trey Songz , Body Language - Kid Ink (feat. Usher & Tinashe) , Gust of Wind - Pharrell ft. Daft Punk ,  Bend Ova - Lil Jon ,  Recess - Skrillex , No Letting Go - Wayne Wonder ,  Get Busy - Sean Paul , Up Down - T-Pain , and/or  Hold Yuh - Gyptian .
