Key, BPM and audio features: model-based audio analysis · how we measure · catalogue updated July 2026
A club-tempo house cut, Free Generation sits in C major (8B) at 125 BPM. The feel is bright and euphoric. 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 unusual dynamic range for club music (crest 11 dB). A 2008 production that still circulates in sets. More underground than 99% of Sabo's catalogue. For programming, treat it as a peak-time weapon.

How to mix it
In 8B at 125 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%: 117-133 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 80/100).
