How it works
From what’s playing to what’s next.
Sidekick keeps the search close to the set — it follows the active deck, ranks what could play next, and gets out of the way.
- 01
Listen
Sidekick follows the active deck and refreshes its suggestions as the set moves.
- 02
Match
Every suggestion is weighed by key, BPM, and energy against the direction you choose — cool it down, keep the vibe, or take it up.
- 03
Download and mix
Download the strongest option, then drag it straight into your DJ software and get back to the blend.
