Downtempo
The city hums in the background while you finally tune out.
Downtempo is a style from the Breathing Silence family. 90 BPM, Weirdness 32, Style Influence 86.
Slow trip-hop beats and deep bass beneath atmospheric pads. Downtempo is the hypnotic calm of midnight — relaxed, enveloping, with a groove that rocks you without rushing anywhere.

Sample excerpt
Manejo despacio por una avenida sin tráfico, las once de la noche de un martes cualquiera. No me espera nadie y no me apura nadie y descubrí que eso a veces está bien.
Sin prisa, sin destino, sin cuenta, así también se puede pasar una noche. No todo lo que vale se persigue, algunas cosas nada más se dejan pasar.
Workshop note — Primera persona, presente, pausada. El downtempo combina groove lento y textura: la letra debe ser observacional y sin clímax. A 90 BPM el fraseo va detrás del beat, así que usa palabras llanas.
