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 Protoje 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 Protoje, 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: HILLS into Like We, 9A to 9A, 83 chemistry.
Protoje sits closest to Kabaka Pyramid, Jesse Royal, Chronixx 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.
