about

To celebrate 5 years of Subtempo, we've put together a compilation of up-and-coming talent, some veterans like Axel Toben and Souns, as well as new friends of the label. A perfect tempo for this time of the year, a gift from us to you.

All proceeds will be donated to Gray Area Foundation for the Arts, a non-profit based in SF with a focus on community, education, visual art, and technology.

The Sails p.1
by loscil

supported by 7 fans who also own “We Beat a Different Drum”

The Sails is a sonic journey that takes the listener from the familiar to the alien and keeps your foot tapping the whole way. Rhythm is driven by layers of bass, synths and samples often without a drum track. Give Still a listen, a glorious riot to take your ears on an adventure. Also, who else is writing 9 minutes long tracks any more? @mohlers pick for best of 22 Album Club
