    In short

    Hot Robot Radio 250 by Jamie Jones scores 68/100 in the SOONOS analysis (developing). The strongest dimension is IDENTITY (85/100) and the weakest is TECHNIQUE (55/100).

    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    Key takeaways

    What weakened the set

    • Long static loops (2×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (36:30, 42:00). 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.

    • 2:15Measured (DSP)92/100Listen at 2:15

      Perfectly executed transition from the intro track into the main groove. The bass swap is invisible.

    • 6:48Measured (DSP)88/100Listen at 6:48

      Smooth integration of new percussive elements. The DJ maintains the energy level perfectly.

    • 10:32Measured (DSP)85/100Listen at 10:32

      Effective use of high-pass filtering to bring in the next track's melody without cluttering the mix.

    • 13:45Measured (DSP)92/100Listen at 13:45

      Smooth transition where the incoming track's percussion perfectly complements the outgoing groove.

    • 17:12Measured (DSP)88/100Listen at 17:12

      Clean low-end handover. The energy remains constant, maintaining the hypnotic state.

    • 21:30Measured (DSP)85/100Listen at 21:30

      Effective use of high-pass filtering to clear space for the incoming track's kick.

    • 24:45Measured (DSP)88/100Listen at 24:45

      Seamless integration of the new bassline; phrasing is spot on.

    • 29:12Measured (DSP)82/100Listen at 29:12

      Smooth transition focusing on the vocal/synth elements.

    About this tech house set

    Hot Robot Radio 250 is a tech house DJ set by Jamie Jones, running 58 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 IDENTITY at 85/100; the weakest is TECHNIQUE at 55/100.

    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 20 points, moving between 40 and 85 on the SOONOS energy scale — a wide dynamic range across the set.

    8 transitions were detected and scored individually.

    Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 1800.0 grid breaks per hour, with a median beat offset of 61 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 Jamie Jones's Hot Robot Radio 250 get?
    Hot Robot Radio 250 scores 68/100 in the SOONOS Mix Database (developing), based on audio measurement plus multi-agent listening.
    How long is Hot Robot Radio 250?
    The analysed recording runs 58 min.
    Which part of the mix scores best?
    IDENTITY is the strongest category at 85/100, while TECHNIQUE is the lowest at 55/100.
    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.
