About this podcast
Andre Mayborn crafts immersive downtempo journeys that invite deep introspection and open pathways to transformative experience. In 2024, he re-envisioned the former Literary Music label as Art Of Downtempo (@art-of-downtempo), a curated imprint dedicated to exploring the avant-garde dimensions of slow electronic music. The label reflects his passion for storytelling through sound and serves as a home for both emerging and established artists with a distinctive signature and vision.
