Key, BPM and audio features: model-based audio analysis · how we measure · catalogue updated July 2026
A club-tempo tech house cut, Nostalgia sits in B♭ minor (3A) at 123 BPM. It reads as punchy, neutral in mood. 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 14 dB). A 2017 production that still circulates in sets. Better known than 80% of Sébastien Léger's catalogue. In a set it works best as a floor-filler.

How to mix it
In 3A at 123 BPM: 4A (F minor) — move to 4A to push the floor harder; 3B (D♭ major) — switch to 3B for a mood change without losing the groove; 2A (E♭ minor) — drop to 2A to bring the room down gently.
Pitch range at ±6%: 116-130 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 10A rather than 3A; below -5% it reads as 8A. With key lock on, it stays 3A across the whole range.
Programming: a floor-filler.
