FWIW, I find that knowing the keys and bpms only helps as a rough guide to what *might* sound good once mixed. So it's a good way to come up with ideas for some tricky mixes, but it's still up to you to try each one and find the winning combinations. Also, there are mixes that seem like they'd clash just looking at the key signatures, but which somehow meld together great.
