In short
Christmas In Bed 2024 by Solomun scores 68/100 in the SOONOS analysis (developing). The strongest dimension is TECHNIQUE (83/100) and the weakest is ENERGY (71/100).
The engine files this performance as “Promising”.
Key takeaways
What weakened the set
- Long static loops (5×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (31:00, 35:00, 41:00, 46:45, 55:00). Long loops kill dancefloor momentum.
What to try next
- Use high-pass filters to create tension before dropping the bass back in.
- Experiment with shorter, more aggressive transitions to inject energy.
- Incorporate tracks with more distinct melodic hooks to break the percussive loop.
- Monitor the energy plateau and ensure the mix doesn't stay static for more than 3 minutes.
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.
Perfectly executed transition where the incoming bassline replaces the outgoing one without any phase cancellation or volume dip.
Smooth integration of the incoming bassline; phrase alignment is spot on.
Effective transition, though the incoming track is slightly louder in the high-mids.
Well-timed low-end handover that maintains the momentum perfectly.
Smooth transition with well-managed low-end handover.
Clean transition, though the incoming track is very similar in energy.

Energy and structure
The energy curve was sampled at 30 points, moving between 20 and 70 on the SOONOS energy scale — a wide dynamic range across the set.
6 transitions were detected and scored individually.
Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 741.6 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.
