Methodology
How Zeltor Labs builds and checks its public music intelligence claims.
This methodology explains the evidence chain behind public pages and product outputs: cited literature, corpus reference baselines, browser-native analysis, and the rules that govern interpretation.
Stage 1
Citations ground the conceptual layer.
Stage 2
Corpus benchmarks ground the comparative layer.
Stage 3
Browser-native analysis grounds the per-track measurement layer.
Stage 4
Narrative interpretation only happens after the measurement chain is established.
Interpretation Standard
Narrative follows measurement.
MusicMind can describe, compare, score, and frame a track because the signal layer exists first. The report voice matters, but it must always sit on top of measured values, benchmark ranges, cited theory, and methodological constraints.
What not to do
No claim should outrun the underlying benchmark support.
No narrative flourish should replace measurement provenance.
No single chart should be treated as universal without domain caveats.
