A.F.T.E.R: peak-time tempo techno, C major (8B), 129 BPM. The feel is dark and driving. Rhythmically it is built for the dancefloor. The mix is almost entirely instrumental. Its spectrum is weighted to the sub and kick, with a heavy low end. The master keeps real dynamic headroom. A 2018 production that still circulates in sets. More bass-heavy than 95% of Argy's catalogue. For programming, treat it as a peak-time weapon.

How to mix it
In 8B at 129 BPM: 9B (G major) — move to 9B to push the floor harder; 8A (A minor) — switch to 8A for a mood change without losing the groove; 7B (F major) — drop to 7B to bring the room down gently.
Pitch range at ±6%: 121-137 BPM — anything in that window beatmatches without sounding stretched.
Key on the fader: without key lock (Master Tempo on CDJs), above roughly +5% it plays a semitone higher, so treat it as 3B rather than 8B; below -5% it reads as 1B. With key lock on, it stays 8B across the whole range.
Programming: a peak-time weapon — save it for the main stretch (energy 90/100).
