Downtempo mixes

Downtempo is electronic music taken slower: relaxed beats, warm textures and room to breathe, somewhere between chill-out and dance. Play a finished set below, or start a downtempo set with the AI DJ. The music keeps playing; on Free the long DJ blends last your first 30 minutes a day, and founding members get them all day.

Downtempo, answered

What BPM is downtempo?

Usually 85 to 110 beats per minute. Beatomat keeps a downtempo set inside that window and only pairs records whose keys sound good together.

What does downtempo sound like?

Laid-back beats, soft synths and samples, often with acoustic instruments, slow enough to talk over.

Can I mix downtempo myself in the browser?

Yes. Open Beatomat Decks: two decks, a three-band EQ, hot cues, loops and effects, and every record shows its tempo and key, so you can see which ones will blend before you try.

Are these mixes free?

Yes. Every finished mix plays free in any browser, without an account, and the music keeps playing. On Free your first 30 minutes a day are mixed with long DJ blends, then records change with a short fade; Unlimited, free for founding members, keeps the blends going.
