    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    Key takeaways

    What weakened the set

    • Long static loops (6×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (18:00, 26:00, 44:00, 51:00, 55:00, 59:45). Long loops kill dancefloor momentum.

    What to try next

    • Experiment with more diverse sub-genres of D&B to add texture.
    • Use longer breakdowns to build even more anticipation.
    • Incorporate more live-remixing elements to further distinguish the set.

    Timestamped insights

    Each moment below is tagged with how it was produced: “measured” comes from the DSP pass on the audio, “listening” comes from the multi-agent listening pass.

    About this drum and bass set

    Andy C - AllNight 2014 Mix is a drum and bass DJ set by Andy C, running 1h 06m. It was measured by the SOONOS multi-agent engine and scores 88/100 overall — festival ready.

    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    How the score breaks down

    SOONOS scores this set across 5 weighted categories. The strongest is IDENTITY at 96/100; the weakest is SURPRISE at 85/100.

    Analysis coverage for this file is 100% — the share of the set the engine could measure with full confidence.

    Energy and structure

    The energy curve was sampled at 26 points, moving between 65 and 98 on the SOONOS energy scale — a moderate dynamic range across the set.

    7 transitions were detected and scored individually.

    Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 586.3 grid breaks per hour, with a median beat offset of 25 ms.

    How this score is built

    Measured layer (DSP): the audio file is analysed directly — beat grid, tempo stability, loudness and energy. These values are measurements, not opinions.

    Listening layer: a multi-agent pass reads musical intent — programming, storytelling, coherence and crowd effect. This layer interprets, it does not measure.

    Fusion and ceilings: the two layers are merged, and the measured layer always wins on execution. When the DSP hears an execution problem, it caps the final score even if the listening layer is positive.

    Measured coverage for this file is 100% of the set.

    Methodology and limitations

    This report is produced automatically from the published recording. It measures what is present in the audio file: a bad source encoding, a partial upload or a heavily processed broadcast version can change the measured values. Nothing here reflects the room, the crowd or the night itself.

    What score does Andy C's Andy C - AllNight 2014 Mix get?
    Andy C - AllNight 2014 Mix scores 88/100 in the SOONOS Mix Database (festival ready), based on audio measurement plus multi-agent listening.
    How long is Andy C - AllNight 2014 Mix?
    The analysed recording runs 1h 06m.
    Which part of the mix scores best?
    IDENTITY is the strongest category at 96/100, while SURPRISE is the lowest at 85/100.
    How is this score calculated?
    SOONOS measures the audio with a DSP pass (beat grid, loudness, tempo, energy) and runs a multi-agent listening pass on top. Measured axes always override the listening layer, so an execution issue heard in the file caps the final score.
