Core Elements

• Intro/Outro sections (clean segments for mixing)
• Main hooks/melodic phrases (memorable musical themes)
• Bassline segments (foundation for energy and groove)
• Drum patterns (both basic beats and fills)
• Vocal phrases (if present, both lead and backing)

Textural Elements

• Pad sounds/atmospheric elements (for building tension)
• Synth arps/sequences (rhythmic interest)
• Transitional effects (risers, downlifters, impacts)
• Background textures (ambient sounds, field recordings)

Structural Markers

• Build-up sections (increasing energy)
• Drop moments (peak energy points)
• Breakdown sections (stripped-back portions)
• Bridge segments (contrasting sections)
• Instrumental solos

Energy Modifiers

• Percussion loops (add/remove for energy control)
• Filter sweeps (frequency manipulation)
• Echo/delay tails (spacing and transition tools)
• Stabs/one-shots (punctuation elements)
