Hi
My suggestion would be to check out some mixes from other DJs - on YouTube, Soundcloud, Mixcloud etc. and take note of the tracks you like.
There are also sites that have charts from all types of DJs and genres. Note the track names then have a listen to them on Spotify, YouTube or somewhere.
If you spend time watching other DJs then you will also pick up tips on DJing styles/methods and use of effects.

I found that Deadmau5 songs work well. They're all 128 bpm. (I mix instrumentals together. Two songs with vocals in them do not work well.) Try mixing There Might Be Coffee and Some Chords. Make sure they're lined up and if they aren't, moveone of the jogwheels forward or backward depending on which one.
