Ok, im planning a mix. I need songs that mix without much pitch control which ALSO mix with these:
See me climb - Stealth
Heart Of Gold - Force & Styles
I dont need nobody - Scott Brown
OR...
Tell me how many bpm's need to be adjusted in order for them to be able to mix easily.
Thanx!!

If mixing were that easy every man and his dog would be a DJ... I think you will find it really hard to find 10-15 tracks all at the same exact BPM.
My suggestion, know your pitch adjustments before hand, practice the mix several times and write down the pitches so you will not have to make too many adjustments when mixing.... it's a little cheating but it will get your mix down... only problem is if you get a gig from your mix tape I don't think you will be doing that live :)

virus: the BPM is important if the tracks are not in the same range, you can't mix 190BPM with 160BPM, no matter how much pitch you give it :)

One song that seems to go with everything and is a classic anthem;
Highlander - Hold me now.

my advice would be to get tracks that are very similar, maybe even by the same artist, and that have simple beats at the start, ie a basic kick beat instead of a breakbeat, it will make it alot easier for ya first mixes...
 ...we were taught to believe, that everyone was created equal in the masterplan...
