Drunk In Love - Beyoncé ft. Jay-Z

tempo: 70 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm , 70 bpm to 75 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #2 in Episode 41 (2:17): Got in and got out pretty quickly, but it's a quality cut. Super deep bass, so keep that in mind when you're deciding what to mix with - blasting this on top of another heavy track may distort the sound and pop the speakers. A virtual lock to get the females singing along on a pop or hiphop night. Some other key-compatible music: Ni**as in Paris - JAY-Z & Kanye West Deuces - Chris Brown Curve - Gucci Mane ft. The Weeknd Grammys - Drake, Future Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae) - Silento iSay - Wiz Khalifa ft. Juicy J Light Years - Yellow Claw Malibu - Miley Cyrus Download or stream Drunk in Love: Spotify playlist Amazon

Disturbia - Rihanna

tempo: 125 bpm bpm range: 120 to 125 bpm , 125  to  130 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #7 in Episode 40 (9:05): If I'm running a retail store, this one needs to be in the playlist - because we all know fast pop music gets people to buy buy buy . Old enough that I had it in the rotation when it came out. One of the regulars at the bar used to request Disturbia on behalf of the manager, saying she loved the song. I think he was just messing with me though. Worth a spin on a throwback dance night.

Ni**as in Paris - Jay- Z & Kanye West

tempo: 70 bpm bpm range: 65 bpm to 70 bpm , 70 bpm to 75 bpm The DJ's Take: Leadoff song in Episode 41 : Feel like I've heard this more than once in an NBA arena as a point guard sets up the offense in the half court. One of the great hiphop hype tracks in recent memory, and a good litmus test for a set. Because if your crowd can't get down to this, you maybe facing an uphill battle.

Gangnam Style - PSY

tempo: 132 bpm bpm range:   130  to  135 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #6 in Episode 40 (7:56): Had to slow this down a few bpm's, but still sounds ok. Another one of those one-hit wonders that straddles the line between hot and humorous; probably closer to the latter. But people should still recognize it, and if they're feeling loose, this should get them going - even if no one understands a single word PSY is saying. Try mixing / mashing up with: Without You - Avicii ft. Sandro Cavazza Meet Me Halfway - Black Eyed Peas Down - Jay Sean Sexy Bitch - Akon Yeah 3X - Chris Brown Sun Is Shining - Axwell ^ Ingrosso download or stream Gangnam Style: amazon spotify playlist

Moves Like Jagger - Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera

tempo: 128 bpm bpm range:   125  to  130 bpm The DJ's Take: Song #5 in Episode 40 (5:56): Some people like watching ASMR videos. Others like popping bubble wrap. For me, it doesn't get much better than when two beats turn into a singular pulse, like this one does with Who's That Chick . Beautiful.

Who's That Chick - Rihanna and David Guetta

tempo: 128 bpm bpm range: 125 to 130 bpm The DJ’s Take: Song #4 (4:29) in Episode 40 : Kinda creeps up on you, right? Guess that's what happens when you put two heavy pop EDM tracks from the same artist back-to-back. Should keep things moving on a dance night or at a pretentious pool party. If you're between 125 to 130 bpm, try mixing with key-compatible tracks like: Don't Start Now - Dua Lipa Breathe - Jax Jones ft.
