Chemistry weighs harmonic, rhythmic, energy, groove, mood and vocal compatibility. Tempos are as analysed from the recording — where a genre is habitually detected an octave down, this is how we handle it. Different measurement from the audience-overlap list further down the page.
DJs and producers closest to Buku by audience overlap — the artists their listeners also play. It’s a taste signal, not a measured key-and-tempo match: good for shortlisting crates when you’re prepping a set around Buku, then check the chemistry on the pair you actually mix.

A transition counts at 80 chemistry or above, the same number shown on a track page. One measured example: yaheardme into BLT, 9A to 8A, 89 chemistry.
