Given the setting has things like phonographs, pianos, early revolvers (pepper boxes), and a shed load of other things that are very 1800s I personally have always thought of it as being sort of pseudo modern no real time thing going on. Sort of like how disk world books do. So the look of the art in them is to me just how I thought the setting looked.

Since I was young I always new I wanted to work in storytelling.... now I'm a VFX artist and indie game developer. For the longest time I was worried that my profession was not important.... if we had to cut down to the essentials in a national or global crisis my job would be the first. With age I've realized that fantasy is more important even in times of crisis. It's a place for us to retreat to and learn from... coming back to reality stronger. In WW1 Tolkien had Middle Earth, in WW2 America had comics. Don't feel guilty for escaping into your games, films, or RPGs.... use it to come back with renewed strength to face the world.

You can buff allies, debuff enemies, put a rock over a guy, pull people out of danger, etc.

Nearly 4 years later, still one of my favourite compilations of Lofi beats

[@Crashenty]

This is so beautiful and stuffed with small details! The blueberry muffin, the spell components, the magic lights being recast, the portion that bubbles and changes colour, the magic circle illuminating in different patterns, the tusktooth sticker, Beau casually stroking the cat while reading, and ofc Professor Tadeus' flyby at 4:39ish. I'm in love with this! Congrats to the creators!

[@charlottebligh649]

I was at 4:36 when I read this, looked just in time to see it

[@geylforcewynd]

i just saw Thaddeus at 34:44 ! I freakin' called it.

[@Crashenty]

@@geylforcewynd nice catch!

[@pmzpdrzbr]

I *was* procrastinating studying all day today but NOPE, JUST KIDDING, I HAVE MY SPELL BOOK OUT AND OPEN AND I'M READY TO STUDY TO "Mighty Vibes" VIBES. Thank you, Critical Role, for keeping dem kids in school.

[@glenndegrebber2812]

Oh I love Widogast's tunes of Chilling, my favorite spell!

[@Heman_916]

Small detail that I think is super cool I just noticed, if you look at Caleb's eyes, you can literally see them go down the left page, then go back up to the left, then down that page and flip to the next one, this animation is gorgeous and I love it.

[@alexguglielmo9084]

I gotta say, I love this album, mainly because the way I see it, the soft chill music is Caleb studying quietly, while the soft but consistent beat is Beau reading in the back. Together they come together to form some absolute bangers!!! Thank you mighty vibes!!

[@kronolockcosplay]

Heck yeah! I love the little comments sprinkled in

[@nolanthompson5100]

Same

[@idk49779]

Maybe check out autumm ornage, he did a lot of Lofi music with comments from the campaign, I love his stuff

[@kronolockcosplay]

Merit Engler OH MAN thank you! It’s awesome!!

[@jeohranalfhir8366]

See what you did there

[@eurydiceapologist]

Beau kicking her leg a little and petting Frumpkin is such a great touch I love this!!!

[@peachykeen4268]

The amount of immediate joy when I saw this notification was off the charts

[@OccidentalAvian]

Fun fact, Marisha's Darrington Brigade character, Hazel Copperpot, invented the wax cylinder phonograph in 825 PD (she called it the "audiomatic"). Vinyl records, or something similar, may have been invented by the time of Campaign 2 ten years later. Basically I'm saying that record players are canon to Exandria and this scene could be canon.

[@ShadowmanTKK]

Oh, damn. I just came back here 4 years later and this....this makes me miss the early days of the lockdown and how much I used to use this for studying/lesson planning. It's fucked up that it's nostalgic at this point.

[@TheThomasuu]

That it is, but regardless this set feels so good.

[@heybuddy3616]

oooooo I bet the next one's gonna be cad with "divine beats to garden to" or some shit

[@fionawu10]

Can't wait for the rest of the mighty nein! Seeing them going about in the day is very nice in the animation and relaxing.

[@sethlost424]

This is Volume 1, too, so who knows we might be getting Machina Vibes too

[@nbeutler1134]

Volume ideas: pumat enchanting items, essek doing magic stuff, orly tattooing the nein, cadeuceus making tea, Fjord writing letters in captains cabin of ship, Nott sorting thru her trinket collection,

[@SharkyShocker]

I love all the Lofi Beat compilations from CR, but I have to say that this one is definitely my favorite. I normally feel completely lost with the schoolwork I do, but I just put this on and it doesn't feel like a chore any more... There are plenty of other Lofi Beat comps to do with other characters, but I genuinely hope that another is done like this one.

[@LazyTitan72]

Caleb and Beau studying together is the best vibe

[@Drakefance5]

I love how Caleb had to recast Dancing Lights throughout this.

[@lemnlyme]

a nice detail is that the cantrip lasts 3 minutes and it’s looped for that exact amount

[@stabvest5262]

The voice samples are at: 0:09 Caleb - "Na dann mal lo" 2:35 Caleb - "Da schau an" 10:12 Caleb - "Anybody can make lights, anyone can send messages to a wire. I want to bend reality to my will" 12:36 Beau - "I needed this" 14:10 Beau - "Buppup" 18:22 Caleb - "Looks like you've found a new best friend Frumpkin" 24:02 Beau - "Does this count as meditating" 35:10 Beau - "Frumpkin, you're okay I guess" 42:07 Caleb - "Bet she's not missing that owl now" 47:48 Beau - "I wonder what Keg is up to" 51:50 Caleb - "I think i have what I need, now to meet the rest of the Nein"

@Heirh Hejeje thank you

[@georgebalderas4942]

Bro you've been tracking these nearly exactly as I've been listening to them

[@lucoberholzer4316]

These are some fire beats Caleb, wait.....

[@VTheGonk]

Still listening to this 4 years later! Critical Roles pandemic content was still creative and great

[@arturomargonar6186]

I love the attention to detail in all the small objects on the table! - the coil of copper wire for Message - the blueberry muffin (surely from Jester) - the jar of licorice roots for Haste - the amber pieces for Vault of Ember - the clay paw for Hearthen Grasp and (possibly) the sprigs of catmint for Cat's Ire And if you squint hard enough it seems Beau is reading a book about Exandria!

[@LovelyChocolateChick]

Critical Role: Let's release Mighty Vibes to help Critters study and relax Mr. Liam O'Brien, leaning into the mic: It is imperative that everyone knows that Caleb is hopelessly in love with Jester Lavorre. Critical Role: *adds a blueberry cupcake*

[@lemnlyme]

i’m. i’m so soft 😭💕

[@TexTheBest]

Marisha Ray should remember them that Beau was the ONLY ONE that actually expressed her feelings for Jester in game then.

[@LovelyChocolateChick]

TexTheBest sometimes a party can be Jester, Jester’s harem, and Caduceus, and I think that’s beautiful.

[@Kurgosh1]

Who isn't?

[@Emilytea]

Goddamn it I ship them so hard ㅠ~ㅠ

[@mai2015]

And yet my crush on caleb continues!!!!! I just noticed he keeps recasting dancing lights and the voice tracks are made to sound like his inner monologue... At around 4:39 outside the window.. is that the professor? 10:15 .... You are welcome

[@SquishFlint]

Prof thaddy strikes again

[@Nyxlave]

Sadly, the dancing lights go out every three minutes, instead of every minute, like the spell's duration. That would have been a nice touch.

[@LordDragox412]

@@Nyxlave The events in the video happen much further in the future based on the showcased technology, so how do you know if Caleb doesn't possess an item that extends spell duration and multiclassed into sorcerer to add extend spell metamagic to dancing lights? >:P

[@malgorzatakawken]

@@LordDragox412 Wizard/Sorcerer multiclass sounds op.... Imma try that one day

[@TheMasterCrabs]

@@Nyxlave I was thinking the same thing. Really goes to show you how annoying it would be to have to cast it every minute.

[@Yakita60]

Watched this live. 😊 Just here, waiting for a kind critter to post timestamps for all Caleb/Beau comments

[@dashbry]

I love how it just casually says to study/Transcribe magic to. The Crit Role Team have such a fun way to add a little magic to everything.

[@miss_bec]

I absolutely adore the artwork for this one. Blue and orange are an underrated colour combination and this captures it perfectly.

[@Death36669]

I appreciate the light effects from dancing lights

[@anthonyelie4700]

I specifically listen to Mighty Vibes Vol. 2, 5, and 6 whenever I'm making a new character for a campaign. Nothing like inspirational music from the Nein (and VM), to get some brainstorming going.

[@CaptainRayaa]

I hope these continue after things get a bit more back to normal. So good to chill and play games with.

[@riverseverywhere]

I got so excited when I noticed the lights dissipate and Caleb restore them, I thought there was an added detail of the spell duration being correct! It's not, but still really cool...

[@joefloyd5766]

why is the looped animation on this so SMOOTH

[@DurandalsFate]

"You notice how that cantrip lasted three minutes? I call it Widogast's Dancing Lights."

[@falsedragon90]

I would absolutely love a vinyl pressing of all of these.

[@frozenpriest5524]

Frumpkin is arguably the most chill member of this photo. He's living the life :D

[@xXfighterofthefooXx]

I literally return to this video every time I am studying now, I know it's cliche but the beats really just put me in that kind of mood.

[@wanderingwind6602]

Honestly whoever did mighty vibes deserves a raise.

[@crestfallensunbro6001]

The animation is amazing, the tones are in fact chill and, beau's eyeliner is _on fleek_

[@Grim_Sister]

I demand one with Molly. Wait, never mind. Molly probably can’t sit down quietly for more than five minutes

[@lerinn2783]

You're absolutely right. I fully believe that Molly painted all those tarot cards in five minute increments only.

[@Grim_Sister]

Lerinn now I feel dumb. Also, I miss Molly

[@tK-be6ns]

probably be a movement mix to dance to

[@Gabranicus]

Molly chilling in a bathhouse would be great

[@takal777]

The interstitial audio lines really make these some of my favorite and have had me coming back to the previous one more than my usual tracks.

[@jackson.d2879]

Perfect for a short rest and arcane recovery...

[@godlovesyou546]

More of these please. I was literally studying magic to this.

[@kraban0452]

The two best Characters (in my opinion) just reading. I needed this so much

[@MsArana]

Five minutes in and I love this already! All of the loving details in this loop breathe life into these three. The effortlessly casual casting is the icing on the slayer's cake!

[@RandomImaginings]

The blueberry muffin sitting next to Caleb was a nice touch. You gotta try the black moss sometime man!

[@CirceAlida]

The hand animation for casting dancing lights is SO BEAUTIFUL. I'm obsessed with this whole piece/animation, but I sat watching, waiting for it to happen again. Incredible. Kami, you did an incredible job.

[@cassieosaurus_9217]

I can’t listen to the campaigns at work because I get too distracted so this is perfect.
