Yesterday's bagel. Skim it, don't savour it.
Summary
boots.list is a macOS tool that transforms Rekordbox DJ collection XML exports into structured, set-ready playlists. It automatically orders tracks along an energy arc (intro, build, peak, resolve) and allows filtering by genre, duration, and BPM range. The app includes a local audio scanner that fills in missing BPM or Camelot key data without cloud uploads or telemetry, preserving cue points and loops.
