I use everydns.net for a similar setup. It lets you create a zone with dynamic A record as it's root (with a client to run on your system for automatic updates) and then you can add static records to it.

Something like
yourdomain.com. 300 IN A 1.2.3.4 (this updates automatically) yourdomain.com. 300 IN MX 10 whatever.com (this is static)

The service is free, and very stable. (thought it supports only A/NS/CNAME/MX records for now - so no spf/ipv6/etc.)
