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 Zani by audience overlap — the artists their listeners also play.

A transition counts at 80 chemistry or above, the same number shown on a track page. One measured example: Endless Ride into Niyanglinga (feat. T&T MuziQ), 8A to 8A, 91 chemistry.
Zani sits closest to Sweet John, 感覺莓果, Hello Nico in our catalog.
