    In short

    Puff Puff Pass #2 by FJAAK scores 67/100 in the SOONOS analysis (developing). The strongest dimension is TECHNIQUE (80/100) and the weakest is SURPRISE (66/100).

    The DJ demonstrates solid technical control, but could elevate the mix by focusing more on storytelling and dynamic variation.

    Key takeaways

    What weakened the set

    • Long static loops (5×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (24:00, 28:00, 34:00, 38:30, 45:00). 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.

    • 1:45Measured (DSP)82/100Listen at 1:45

      Smooth transition with well-managed low-end handover.

    • 5:45Measured (DSP)78/100Listen at 5:45

      Functional transition that maintains the energy level.

    • 9:45Measured (DSP)75/100Listen at 9:45

      Clean transition, though slightly predictable.

    • 14:22Measured (DSP)85/100Listen at 14:22

      Smooth integration of the incoming bassline, perfectly phrase-aligned.

    • 18:45Measured (DSP)82/100Listen at 18:45

      Effective use of filtering to clear space for the new track's percussion.

      Functional transition, though slightly predictable in its execution.

      Smooth integration of hats and percussion before the bass swap.

    About this hard techno set

    Puff Puff Pass #2 is a hard techno DJ set by FJAAK, running 60 min. It was measured by the SOONOS multi-agent engine and scores 67/100 overall — developing.

    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    The DJ demonstrates solid technical control, but could elevate the mix by focusing more on storytelling and dynamic variation.

    How the score breaks down

    SOONOS scores this set across 5 weighted categories. The strongest is TECHNIQUE at 80/100; the weakest is SURPRISE at 66/100.

    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 31 points, moving between 60 and 90 on the SOONOS energy scale — a moderate dynamic range across the set.

    7 transitions were detected and scored individually.

    Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 557.0 grid breaks per hour, with a median beat offset of 12 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 FJAAK's Puff Puff Pass #2 get?
    Puff Puff Pass #2 scores 67/100 in the SOONOS Mix Database (developing), based on audio measurement plus multi-agent listening.
    How long is Puff Puff Pass #2?
    The analysed recording runs 60 min.
    Which part of the mix scores best?
    TECHNIQUE is the strongest category at 80/100, while SURPRISE is the lowest at 66/100.
    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.
