A drum n bass cut, Kontroller sits in B major (1B) at 174 BPM. The feel is dark and driving. The mix is almost entirely instrumental. Its spectrum is weighted to the sub and kick, with a heavy low end. The master is loud and heavily compressed. The master keeps unusual dynamic range for club music (crest 13 dB). A 2010 production that still circulates in sets. Less groove-driven than 99% of Break's catalogue.

How to mix it
In 1B at 174 BPM: 2B (F♯ major) — move to 2B to push the floor harder; 1A (A♭ minor) — switch to 1A for a mood change without losing the groove; 12B (E major) — drop to 12B to bring the room down gently.
Pitch range at ±6%: 164-184 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 8B rather than 1B; below -5% it reads as 6B. With key lock on, it stays 1B across the whole range.
