Pretty nice edit. I think it's interesting to look at the future of lofi though and how it can be spun in a way where it doesn't become stale / cheesy (which a large part of the stuff on KZbin already is). It's a great video, but I think a lot of videos and articles just revolve around the circlejerk sad loop thing, whereas I think a lot of value and potential lies in looking how it can evolve and the artists that are actually pushing the sound forward.

I'd like to think that I am trying to help push forward past the memes of what lofi is and to just draw inspiration from it rather than limiting myself by making all of my music with "lofi" as a genre. I love what lofi means to me and how the sounds I make draw from what everyone thinks lofi is, but at the end of the day I'm just making music with no genre in mind still.

That and musically it's generally pretty boring. It's usually the same loop played over and over on top of some chords, with no real buildup or ending. It's easy to make, and so a ton of people do it. There can be great lo fi, but so much of the stuff out there just... isn't. It has it's place, everyone needs a bit of bland background noise that sounds nice, but nothing really stands out about any one song, they all kind of blend together. You can listen to hours of lo fi, and it's lovely and nice sounding and great, but in the end you're not listening to the songs, you're listening to them all, like eating a bunch of french fries -- you never pay attention to what the differences are between them, they're all just french fries. If that makes any sense. Sorry if that came across as overly negative, I really do love lo fi, but that's my take on it.

Okay, so I have a dissociative disorder called Derealization. It's pretty rare and it's basically like being disconnected from reality. Like being in a constant dream-state, though not quite. It's really difficult for me to be in the moment. It's hard for me to get my head out of the cloudy state it's in, and often times this results in days, weeks, and in extreme cases, months all blurring together. Memory loss and inability to keep track of time is a normal thing. But damn does lofi bring me down in such an incredible way. The aesthetic and the slow, dreamy music just helps me experience nothing but now. You described it perfectly yourself, it's a slow, repetitious sound and that's exactly what helps my head come down to earth. I also really love a lot of bedroom-pop, like Vansire. I use it to study unironically; fuck the memes, I just need my head focused.

I discovered lofi a year ago, as a way to listen to music that just isn't distracting. Seeing these girls study is a perfect depiction of me when listening to lofi; I think lofi is "there" with you while you study, do your homework or just chill out. It does not demand your concentration; it is additive and leaves a pleasent tune to listen to while concentrating. As you said, the world is moving fast and so is modern music aswell. Listening to, for example, Pop, HipHop or Rap (often) demands you to listen and think about what's being sung. The melody is fast paced and has a fast beat to it, automatically making you focus on what is happening in the song right now. But lofi brings the tempo down again. Ambient, repetetive and smooth; that is what lofi is about. And that makes it a perfect companion for a slow approach to everyday life.

i think the same way you do about lofi hiphop, there's a lot of introspection that comes through listening to lofi mixes, and i think a lot of introverted people as well as people needing a break from the constant flow of social interaction can relax and put a mix on, they find solace and relaxation in that, thank you, misteramazing. This really defined lofi hiphop as more than just an easy to make constant loop, but as something that people can find contentment in.

I totally agree. There are certain points of the day where i don't listen to Lofi, and i find it boring and simplistic, but during the night when i'm chilling, i will listen to it. It's not a genre with lyrics (in majority of cases), but it's something, almost like Minecraft music, it's moving, motivating, and thus, that's why it's used during studying, there are no lyrics to try to remember, it's just beats, you, and your actions.

Perfect way to summon up the simplicity and beauty that lofi exudes. A genre that is meant to put and/or keep you in a certain moment or emotion. I think that's why it's two primary target audiences are generally people who are studying or smoking. Two activities that involve a certain level of focus but are also tasks that are best when the person is "in the moment": a moment in which the listener is able to live, breathe, and feel whatever they're feeling at that given point in time. Again, excellent analysis of this genre and keep up the great work, my man.

rune titan I think that’s the appeal of it. It’s just a blob with not much substance. No real creativity or risks as another guy in the thread said. You don’t know who made it and it’s mainly a loop of old music mixed with very simple beats. But that’s what it’s supposed to do. It’s not supposed to stand alone and it needs something to accompany it. That’s where the listener comes in. You provide that extra uniqueness and substance that it’s missing. It’s background music or elevator music. It doesn’t grab your attention and say “listen to me” like misteramazibg said it soothes you and lets you do things without having to concentrate on it. That’s why I like it.

I can name quite a few songs by artists I know and respect but I also get where you're coming from and I feel there's a beauty to that ambiguity. I mean head on soundcloud, load up your favourite lo-fi playlist and put on auto-play. Sure some of it will be absolute trash but you will find stuff you will like and remember and when you do, add it to that playlist. ( Songs from the top of my head in case you want to go listen to em ;) Bert - caffiene Sarcastic Sounds - Pack My Bags Stian - How Could You? Stian - Love and Lost Shy Nights - Morning Moonlight Kina - I Feel Empty furino - I hope you love me back Thats all for now )

Very nice video. Something about your work has a unique touch and feel to it that has yet to be replicated (oh and that editing is just...wow!). Anyway I agree with a lot of the points you make about lofi. Me personally I like some lofi, I don’t like the type that just samples some piano loop and bit crushes it to death with a crumby beat, I like the more melodic type that’s a bit more involved. The type that’s both relaxed and danceable at the same time. I also like it when it samples something more obscure and unique. I still find myself drawn to it, with the aesthetic and the light vinyl / Walkman buzz noise you described, and that everything is written in all undercase letters. Some of my favorite lofi artists that I highly recommend are: bsd.u, jinsang, wünsche, scribe, lost son, layo, vanilla, eevee, and more I’m forgetting. If anyone reading wants the links for any of these artists, let me know.

I'm going to be open with you here. In my opinion Lo-Fi is modern-day elevator music. It's easy to make, most of it is just created using loops ( instead of recordings, samples or generators like vsts). It's great for having somebody talk over or having a melodramatic vocal playing and they are very well suited for the background composition to your videos. I'm definitely not saying that you're wrong by any means, this is just my personal take. My father was in a metal band as i grew up, when I got older I fell in love with the noise scene, grindcore. I think our upbringing and culture plays a big role in our definition of interesting and entertaining sounds. As always great video though bro I love to see your take on things and I feel like I always come out of your videos with a little bit more understanding of something than I did before.

a really hidden aspect of lofi is a lot of the bedroom pop diy artists out there who create all their own music and don't really sample other songs, but use very lofi effects and techniques to create a more intimate warmth to their music. It's as you said, about the moment. Hell, I never was never really happy with any music I recorded until I picked up an awful little handheld tape recorder. God awful quality but it's sooooo warm and fuzzy it makes me really love what I record

I don’t know if you will read this comment , I’m a huge fan of your videos. I listen to an artist called EDEN , I’m not sure if this would ever be your type of music but there is something that gets me in the feels and I know it’s the same for a lot of other listeners , I was wondering if you could have a listen to “End Credits” and “Times like these” . If you get the same feeling it do maybe you could make a video about it . Just an idea :)
