Side-Line introduces Man-009 – listen now to ‘Render’ (Face The Beat profile series)

Track 38 on our free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 3” is by Man-009. On “Render” the former Lestat member Timothy Smith offers a filmic electronic approach that should please those in search of a dark rhythmical (almost ritual) analogue sound. Not surprising that Smith himself is describing the Man-009 project as a film score project.
You can listen to the track below.
Based in Cleveland, Ohio, Timothy Smith also contributed to our previous free download compilation “Face The Beat: Session 2” with the track “Lleh” as you can hear below.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
