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 Mahoota 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 Mahoota, then check the chemistry on the pair you actually mix.

We scored every transition between Mahoota's 12 analysed tracks and every track by 12,460 other artists. 140 catalogues clear the bar by more than chance would give, and Busta 929, DJ Maphorisa, Focalistic are three of them — listed alphabetically, because the set is reproducible and the order inside it is not. A transition counts at 80 chemistry or above, the same number shown on a track page. One measured example: Ama Vithi Vithi into Aus'Mapula, 2A to 2A, 91 chemistry.
Mahoota sits closest to Oskido, Big Nuz, Dj Mbuso in our catalog. That ranking is audience overlap — the artists their listeners also play — rather than a measured key-and-tempo match, so treat it as a shortlist worth digging through, not a promise that any two tracks will beatmatch.
