Setlist

The following table lists the mixes and their constituent songs that are available on the ''DJ Hero 2'' disc. Most mixes involve two different songs, but others are beat juggles using the same core song on two different tracks for unique effects. Within the game's career mode, songs are arranged in six venues, and further into three or four song setlists, often featuring songs all mixed by the same DJ artist. In certain sets that feature a real-life artist, the player will perform as that artist's avatar within the game. The player must earn a certain number of stars from previous venues and setlists to unlock later ones. Other mixes are specifically designed as Battle Mixes to be played in the game's two-player DJ Battles mode. All mixes are available to play in the game's Quickplay mode. Reviewers found the soundtrack provided a wider range of genres, moving away from hip-hop and into
