    Recurring patterns

    • Recurring mid-frequency clash

      Mid-range buildup muddies the soundstage and washes out vocals/synths during transitions. Detected 2× (09:45, 29:15).

    • Long static loops (6×)

      Sections sitting on the same loop without layering, EQ moves or tension shifts (19:00, 30:00, 32:00, 36:00, 42:00, 61:00). Long loops kill dancefloor momentum.
