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 12 dB). A 2014 production that still circulates in sets. Hotter than 97% of Skrillex's catalogue. In a set it works best as a floor-filler.

How to mix it
In 2B at 160 BPM: 3B (D♭ major) — move to 3B to push the floor harder; 2A (E♭ minor) — switch to 2A for a mood change without losing the groove; 1B (B major) — drop to 1B to bring the room down gently.
Pitch range at ±6%: 150-170 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 9B rather than 2B; below -5% it reads as 7B. With key lock on, it stays 2B across the whole range.
Programming: a floor-filler.
