🌱 Chillhop Essentials · Spring 2023 [chill lofi / instrumental hiphop beats]

With over 40 musicians across 28 tracks, Essentials Spring 2023 might be our most treasured one yet. Featuring a who's who of some of our favorite musicians in the community, we present a 2xLP to keep everyone vibrant and alive as the seasons change and days start to warm.
Essentials Spring 2023 features recent Chillhop beat tape alumni like El Train, Evil Needle, illiterate, and Mr. Slipz, while also showcasing songs from familiars like Oatmello, SwuM, Toonorth, Blue Wednesday, HM Surf, The Doppelgangaz, and dozens of others.
This album features over 70 minutes of chillhop, jazzhop, lofi hip-hop. Soulful beats, boom bap, old school. However you might like to classify this. It's all part of the same Chillhop vibe - a welcoming and comforting sign of the springtime to come. A new season is here. Drop the top on your new convertible (whether real or imagined) and jazz things up with this carefully curated compilation. Buy a boombox. Buy a roadmap. Pack the car and go.

such an honour for having a song in this beautiful compilation 🥰

[@splendidcyan]

Can I just say, shoutout to Chillhop for having some amazing art and animation, AND for not using image generators for their work? It's actually sucked lately finding fun lofi channels and realizing their youtube art is AI-- 1) its sloppy and ugly and 2) haha that's work like mine that's been chewed on and spat out for the sake of "the aesthetic" -- especially since lots of illustrators and painters would totally love to do collabs with lofi channels! Nowadays I only watch/listen to lofi videos that use anime gifs, are from over 2 years ago, or are visibly original and have hours of care put into them, like what Magellan and Flo have done for Chillhop.

[@creature_featurre]

Unfortunately as sinners the only 'karma' we deserve is death, but Yeshua (Jesus) died in our place allowing us to enjoy the mercy of God. The 'universe' itself does not come with any sort of moral instruction, so how can you define what would constitute 'good karma'? I hope that you think on these things, I say them in love and no ill-will.

[@kdua_]

To everyone who's studying with this music: Checklist: • A bottle of water, at least 1liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧 • Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋 • Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones, because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧 • a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕ • Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone , a few pens, paper or whatever you need.⌨ •Anything else you could need, what about a heat pad, a blanket, a good lamp, your pet so you have a study buddy 🐈 Reminder: After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me. You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book. 📖 I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight 😴🧸
