    Trust your ears, MIK energy and BPM are just guides.. use your ears and see if the song really is low or high energy, it will be obvious, and only you will be able to judge when it should be high or low energy and for how long. With a lower energy song, many times you can layer on some more energetic drums to bring the energy up mixing into a more high energy song in any case.

    Your ears, your passion for music and knowing the tunes you play are the main deciding factors.

    MIK is part of my workflow because it’s useful to know the bpm and key when I’m making a playlist but beyond that I never could understand how that energy stuff was supposed to work. Make a playlist then freestyle off it. Trust your ears and play the tunes you know.
