    In short

    Supreme Podcast 302 by Spartaque scores 73/100 in the SOONOS analysis (solid). The strongest dimension is TECHNIQUE (83/100) and the weakest is SURPRISE (70/100).

    The DJ demonstrates a 'less is more' approach, relying on subtle layering to maintain a high-quality club groove.

    Key takeaways

    What worked

    • Technical precision in EQing
    • Relentless groove continuity
    • Excellent phase alignment

    What weakened the set

    • Recurring mid-frequency clash (3×) — Mid-range buildup muddies the soundstage and washes out vocals/synths during transitions. Detected 3× (08:30, 14:45, 24:25).
    • Long static loops (1×) — Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (49:00). Long loops kill dancefloor momentum.

    What to try next

    • Incorporate a brief moment of silence or extreme minimalism to heighten the impact of the next drop.
    • Explore layering a third, non-rhythmic element (like a field recording) to add unique texture.
    • Try a slightly more aggressive EQ cut during transitions for a more 'live' feel.

    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.

    • 02:12Measured (DSP)92/100Listen at 02:12

      Perfectly executed handover. The incoming percussion layers naturally over the outgoing groove.

    • 05:45Measured (DSP)85/100Listen at 05:45

      Clean transition, though the incoming track has a slightly brighter top end.

    • 08:30Measured (DSP)78/100Listen at 08:30

      A bit abrupt compared to previous blends, causing a slight dip in momentum.

    • 11:15Measured (DSP)85/100Listen at 11:15

      Very smooth transition, tracks are perfectly in phase.

    • 14:45Measured (DSP)78/100Listen at 14:45

      Clean handoff, though the incoming track is slightly louder.

    • 21:15Measured (DSP)88/100Listen at 21:15

      Smooth introduction of the new percussive layer, perfectly in phase.

    • 24:25Measured (DSP)82/100Listen at 24:25

      Clean low-end transition, though a slight mid-range buildup was audible.

    • 29:10Measured (DSP)90/100Listen at 29:10

      Excellent use of high-pass filter to build tension before the new track drops.

    About this peak techno set

    Supreme Podcast 302 is a peak techno DJ set by Spartaque, running 1h 03m. It was measured by the SOONOS multi-agent engine and scores 73/100 overall — solid.

    The engine files this performance as “Promising”.

    The DJ demonstrates a 'less is more' approach, relying on subtle layering to maintain a high-quality club groove.

    How the score breaks down

    SOONOS scores this set across 5 weighted categories. The strongest is TECHNIQUE at 83/100; the weakest is SURPRISE at 70/100.

    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 24 points, moving between 60 and 92 on the SOONOS energy scale — a moderate dynamic range across the set.

    8 transitions were detected and scored individually.

    Beat-grid measurement (DSP) reports 606.9 grid breaks per hour, with a median beat offset of 17 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 Spartaque's Supreme Podcast 302 get?
    Supreme Podcast 302 scores 73/100 in the SOONOS Mix Database (solid), based on audio measurement plus multi-agent listening.
    How long is Supreme Podcast 302?
    The analysed recording runs 1h 03m.
    Which part of the mix scores best?
    TECHNIQUE is the strongest category at 83/100, while SURPRISE is the lowest at 70/100.
    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.
