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.

It’s a taste signal, not a measured key-and-tempo match: good for shortlisting crates when you’re prepping a set around Modestep, then check the chemistry on the pair you actually mix.
