Existential Downtempo
Existential Downtempo
Existential Downtempo is a side-project of electronica influenced dub and chill-out music. Calm enough to relax to, but with a big enough electronic part to keep you awake.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Live performances are coming soon, whereby a full band will be used. Look out for gigs in the Midlands.
Your musical influences
Current electronica artists such as Squarepusher and Four Tet are a major influence, but the dub and "chill" influence comes from the trip-hop and dub sounds of Massive Attack, !!! and Mad Professor. Special mention must go to Gorro too.
What equipment do you use?
Programs including Cubase, ACID, Fruity Loops, alongside such lo-fi real instruments as battered electric guitars, vintage keyboards and 4 track recorders. Found sounds recorded from various, anonymous places.
