    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    Key takeaways

    What weakened the set

    • Long static loops (4×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (8:00, 35:00, 39:00, 53:00). Long loops kill dancefloor momentum.

    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.

      Smooth transition, well-timed low-end exchange.

    About this high tech minimal set

    Christmas Mix 2024 is a high tech minimal DJ set by Boris Brejcha, running 59 min. It was measured by the SOONOS multi-agent engine and scores 68/100 overall — developing.

    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    How the score breaks down

    SOONOS scores this set across 5 weighted categories. The strongest is TECHNIQUE at 82/100; the weakest is SURPRISE at 68/100.

    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 21 points, moving between 60 and 88 on the SOONOS energy scale — a moderate dynamic range across the set.

    6 transitions were detected and scored individually.

    Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 181.2 grid breaks per hour, with a median beat offset of 20 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.

    Questions about this analysis

    What score does Boris Brejcha's Christmas Mix 2024 get?
    Christmas Mix 2024 scores 68/100 in the SOONOS Mix Database (developing), based on audio measurement plus multi-agent listening.
    How long is Christmas Mix 2024?
    The analysed recording runs 59 min.
    Which part of the mix scores best?
    TECHNIQUE is the strongest category at 82/100, while SURPRISE is the lowest at 68/100.
    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.
