Lofi music

Just a thought, I listen to a lot of lofi music, lofi hip hop, lofi chill for sleep and I really like it. It feels like the perfect combination of chilled vibes with, a good beat, often hip hop, equally good with or without lyrics. I know there is a vintage feel to it, for a lot of people and maybe it’s that drawing me in. I love my alternative music, like metal. I like my reggae and my dance music, mostly techno and hard dance. Sometimes though nothing can beat a little lofi, I would say one thing lofi to me means low quality, rough round the edges or not highly processed, but I think there needs to be a vintage feel too, am I wrong? Who knows. My music is often rough around the edges but is it Lofi, I doubt it.

I think i need to learn how to polish them into vintage pieces myself, I don’t tend to make hiphop or viably commercial pieces, I think my stuff is more my creative vomit in musical form. I can write lyrics, I can make ok beats, but I can’t sing and I am easily distracted. I work full time and if I won the lottery I’d likely have a better chance of making better music, not because I’d have money to buy gear, but because I’d have money to not need to spend time working. Isn’t that everyone’s dream though?

So yeah just a little ruminating on an underrated genre of music in my opinion. Nice background music, creative style that is widely enjoyed, maybe one day I’ll get some of my own out there for people to enjoy.

Thanks for reading
