Recommended tracks for your collection — with a reason

Streaming apps suggest songs for your playlists, but they rarely tell you why a track showed up. For DJs that's the part that matters: a recommendation is only useful if you understand whether it fits because of the key, the tempo, the label, or because working DJs actually play it next to what you already have.

So we built recommendations into collections — and every pick comes with a reason.

How it works

Open any collection and you'll find a Recommended for this collection section under your tracks. It reads what's already in the collection and suggests songs that fit, each tagged with a short explanation:

• More <genre> — leaning into the genres you've been saving.
• More from <label> — digging deeper into a label that shows up in your crate.
• More from <artist> — other tracks from an artist you already collect.
• Mixes in key with your tracks — songs in harmonically compatible keys (same key, ±1 on the Camelot wheel, or the relative major/minor).
• Around your tempo — tracks in the same BPM ballpark as the collection.
• DJs play this alongside your tracks — songs that appear right next to yours in real tracklists. This is the one streaming apps can't do: it comes from how DJs actually sequence sets, not from a black-box model.

If a collection is brand new and empty, you'll still get sensible starting points drawn from what's popular across DJ sets.

Shuffle for a fresh dig

The suggestions are deliberately random within each reason — there's no single "best" next track, just a lot of good ones. Hit Shuffle and the whole list re-rolls, surfacing a different set of songs that still fit your collection. It's the digital equivalent of flipping to another stack in the record shop.

Anything you don't have yet is one click away: the + button adds a recommended track straight into the collection, and it drops out of the suggestions so you can keep moving.

Why reasons matter

A recommendation without a reason is just a guess. When every pick is labelled, you can decide how to use it — pull the harmonic matches when you're building a smooth blend, grab the same-tempo picks when you're locking a section of a set, or follow the "played alongside" suggestions to mirror how a track actually lands in a real room.

Start a collection, add a few tracks you love, and let the recommendations dig the rest with you. And if you want to understand the key matches behind the suggestions, our guide to the Camelot wheel breaks it down.
