Behind Tempo

The sonic worlds of Side Liner (#downtempo) Renil Edis (#techno) converge in this podcast, a direct channel into the creative process of the artist and label manager. Here, the atmospheric, slow-burning textures of downtempo meet the driving, intricate patterns of techno, reflecting the dual musical identities of the host. Each episode is a curated journey, often blending these styles with related genres like the immersive pulse of psytrance and laid-back chill beats. As the force behind the Cosmicleaf and Koslif imprints, Renil Edis brings a curator's ear, sharing not only original productions and mixes but also the nuanced, mood-focused sound that defines his labels. This isn't about crowd-pleasing formulas; it's an exploration of depth, rhythm, and atmosphere. Listening feels like accessing a private studio session or a bespoke club set, designed for focused listening, late-night drives, or moments requiring a deep, electronic soundtrack. The podcast serves as both a personal creative log and an invitation to experience the broader spectrum of electronic music that inspires his work, all delivered with a cohesive, intentional flow that prioritizes the journey over any single track.
