Win or lose, I am so proud of @wolframbonnet because if youâve followed his Brolic Army journey throughout the years, youâll notice a vast improvement in his understanding of maintaining a steady pocket as a beat juggler. Whatâs more, Iâm hearing that X-Men funk in his juggles. I smiled throughout this entire routine. What an awesome job. All Mystery has to do now is learn how to incorporate advanced movements into what he knows.

I thought Mysteryâs set was solid to strong, even if I didnât see anything mindblowing. I think heâs good at picking sections that will go well with what he does to them; sometimes I see other DJs doing patterns that might be cool, but that donât sound good with the parts and sounds they are using. Mystery doesnât have that issue.

Mystery has improved as a scratcher compared to his previous appearances in Brolic Army challenges. He now has a better grasp of structure and composition. Even his delivery has improved somewhat. However, he still needs to work on scratching with more intention. By that, I mean Mystery sometimes fluctuates between successfully landing a complex Transformer with perfect timing and losing rhythm and accuracy when attempting what sounded like âcrabsâ and âflares.â Overall, his routine lacks consistency in accuracy, and it seems that at times, Mystery is competing with the music heâs scratching to, scratching quickly to sound fast, rather than truly complementing the music as a scratcher. I encourage Mystery to focus on slowing down and really understanding how scratch combos work.

Sample selection is nice, but I would have liked to have heard more than 3 samples. You also cut yourself off 8 seconds early in the routine, which is about 4 bars. You could have used that to add another sample or shown a different technique. In the âcut like that styleâ thereâs a couple things going on. It doesnât seem like the sample is matched to the beat and that youâre trying to force it to be on time by tap/pausing the sample. All said, it seems like you have good knowledge of a lot of these techniques, but I think you need to slow down the beat a bit to get them cleaner. Just remember, you gotta crawl before you can walk, walk before you can run. Keep up the good work Soldier!
