lofi hip hop radio - beats to relax/quarentine to

By demonzor on March 22, 2020 5:45 pm

had this in the back pocket, added some guitar and other effects, uploaded. basically wrote a piano part, dropped it down 2 octaves, stretched it to 2x the original length, and added some other junk.  pretty much followed youtube steps and a formula to make a lofi-ish song.  no motivation this week... stay safe all!

Glad you let this back-pocket track out. This is legit my man. The mixing is really well done. You could almost kiss your homie to this.

Well done anyways, motivation is overrated. Just do it, Nike have a great slogan... What are the "brass" type sound I am hearing?

This is cool as hell man, the mix is impeccable.  Thats a cool ass idea to transpose and stretch the piano like that, I'm going to have to try and mess around with that on a track some time.  Is there an extra layer of synth on this too or is that just what happened when you stretched it?

This relaxes me, which is very welcome lately.

Hell yeah this is LOFI af.  I had no motivation this week either.  This quarantine shit is driving me crazy.  Nice work though you definitely nailed the sound.  I like the title too lol

i used the DSK brass vst to get the horn sounds.  There are definitely some better brass vsts out there, I've just had trouble setting them up properly.

It's actually a pretty bare track.  It's the .wav file of the stretched piano, a guitar with plenty of effects playing the same notes at the piano( prob what you're thinking of the extra layer), the deep bass, kick/snare, speech samples, and then brass section.  I put MGF timewarp on the master to give it the vinyl/lofi effect.

That melody is beautiful! Very airy! Lofi baby!

Beautiful, and so hopeful.  Couldn't have come at a better time.  Stay safe!

As I texted you, great use of CC's speech. Such a relevant speech then, as it continues to resonate in times like today. Great job bud. She's a beaut.

Don't forget to detune half a semi down.

Wonderful piece, the piano is very relaxing.
