What This Move Does

It eases the energy back down a notch — the classic cool-down move after a peak, or a way to reset the room before the next build. Use it when the floor needs a breather, not at the height of a peak.

In the booth: Moving down Camelot wheel — energy drop. Line the phrases up, bring the new track in over 16–32 bars, and let the key relationship do the rest — 6B and 5B sit close enough on the wheel that nothing clashes.

The wheel below is set to 6B — 5B is one of its highlighted safe moves. Tap any key to explore from there.

Hover or tap any key — the wheel shows the four safe moves out of it. Green is the same key, cyan a ±1 step, violet the major/minor flip, amber a +2 energy lift.

This move works in both directions: 5B → 6B is the +1 step up the wheel — same harmonic ground, opposite effect on the room.
