The Edge by Medline is an album by French-Chilean music producer Medline, blending a variety of genres such as funk, jazz, and soul beats. The album is known for its smooth yet dynamic sound, featuring rich, atmospheric compositions with groovy basslines and jazzy instrumentation. The Edge captures a laid-back yet energetic vibe, with tracks that are both intricate and easy to groove to.

More than just an album, The Edge is a tribute to rare and iconic music from around the world. Drawing inspiration from cult Italian soundtracks, 80s anime scores, English and French library music, and legendary samples that shaped hip-hop, Medline reinterprets 11 carefully selected compositions from his crate-digging treasures.

Unlike traditional beatmakers who sample, Medline takes a unique approach: he recreates entire tracks from scratch, playing every instrument himself—from flutes and horns to keyboards and guitars. This labor of love is a continuation of the journey he started with Solstice in 2018, further cementing his place in the world of rare groove producers at the crossroads of jazz, funk, soul, and hip-hop.

Crafted in his small home studio, The Edge evokes the warmth and depth of a full 70s orchestra, all created by a single artist with no formal music theory training—only raw passion, deep musical knowledge, and a dedication to honoring the originals.

For crate diggers, beat connoisseurs, and lovers of rare grooves, The Edge is an essential listen, pushing boundaries while paying homage to the past.
