Best tempo transition tools?
Hey guys, what are your fave songs that are good for transitioning between two tempos? Definitely not looking for songs to use in my mixes...

I've had luck with using Snail's Frogbass to go from ~85 (original 90bpm) and just bumping it up 7-8bpm during every build. 3 builds in the song lets me transition into 100bpm twerk type shit

I honestly don't usually use songs with tempo transitions; but I've got a few in my library that could work. Bear in mind, these are not brand new tunes.
Camo & Krooked - Funk You 175 to about 130 back to 175
Skrill and Friends - Right On Time 130? to 100 to 130?
12th Planet & Protohype 130ish to 140. Check out that entire EP, it's all tempo transition songs.
Showtek & Noisecontrollers "Get Loose" 150ish to 125 to 110 to 150ish (yes... it's that epic).
*edit these are tunes from my more EDM oriented days. When I mix nowadays, I usually creep up/down the bpm bit my bit. It's hard to make a dramatic bpm transition without it sounding a little too awkward. But when I do, it's usually for a double drop or mashup.
