Sinitus Tempo
Born as Nathan Peters on March 1st, 1989, the youth of this producer was cultivated by the sounds of [a=Madlib], [a65080], [a=MF Doom], [a14295]. The adoration of his older brother’s skill of writing music pushed the much-younger Sinitus Tempo to match the words with a touch of sound. Under the technique of “looping and adding” which allowed him to sample a record and use it repetitiously with added drum effects, was the manner in which Tempo enhanced his style---until he heard production by 9th Wonder and [a218406] of the Justus League squad. Another gem was added to his toolbox of knowledge and from there, he set forth on a journey of mastering the art of reinventing classics. Through this understanding of manipulating the pitch of old tunes, an intrigued Sinitus Tempo developed a style of his own, building a more pronounced sound that have many awaiting his signet of ability to stamp their music. Loyal, but tight-nit is the persona of Sinitus Tempo. Working alongside childhood friend and producer Doc Battle, Tempo also manages a green, yet dynamic company with Alex Kohler, making him both dually active in the business and artistic side of his production. His confidence is encouraged by a strong history of collaborations with artists such as Markyland (SRC/Universal), Add-2 ([a=9th Wonder], [a=Roots], lrg, MTV) and [a=Substantial] ([a=Nujabes]) as well as a long list of production work for acts from all over the world, ranging from names like Canadian MC EDGE (Djbooth.net kevin nottingham.com and more) to JUn Chikuma (Original Creator of the Bomberman Soundtrack). The seeker of vintage vinyl keeps his future motives in front of him, making plans to collaborate with the likes of [a=Flying Lotus], [a=Yukimi Nagano], [a=Common], [a=Bonobo], Koop, [a=XX] and many more. In just a few years, Sinitus has made a serious name in the anime community with the release of six highly-praised tributes to Claymore, Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop, and Soul Eater. Just from looking at the determination of Sinitus Tempo’s aim at being one of the top underground producers of the hip-hop realm makes the status of his upcoming projects look like an imminent win from the start.
