  • Latte Chill on Amazon Music

    amazon music

    Fun fact about me on Friday: I am available on Amazon Music. I wonder if you knew about it. In this article I will share some information about this side of Latte Chill project.

    Amazon Music as stream platform is my second trendiest channel outperforming Apple Music from my perspective.

    How to get into Amazon Music as a musician?

    There are several ways, some costs more than others. I use a cheaper solution called DistroKid. It costs me rough 35 USD a year to upload any music on the biggest stream platforms. This way I am available on Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube and many other.

    If you use my link above by the way, you will get some dollars off through my referral program.

    Anyways, just to prove how fully I am present on that channel, see my Amazon Music Player below with 700+ songs.

    Does it worth using Amazon Music as an artist?

    It believe it always depends on how established you are. I mean I was able to turn this project into a positive (profitable) one in a year and a bit more. Some, who are into music with vocals can do it in months however. It depends a lot on where do you live and how many people will follow you. To my point.

    What made Amazon Music different was the fact that I was not focusing much on this channel as it is not widely available in Hungary where I live. So it is not like I did not want to. The contrary, I saw my stats, it was a logical step. I couldn’t.

    I mean I harvest a lot with my YouTube reach, Spotify playlists etc, but Amazon. It is more tricky.

    More of a passive channel

    So at the end, it became a passive channel for me. I wish it changes quickly in the future but it is a bit more Western Europe oriented from my perspective.

  • [Single] Chill when your mind is full

    Chill when your mind is full.jpg(1)

    Chill when your mind is full is my latest single from lo-fi album Travellers. Listen to the song below:

    Enjoy PO-33 KO beats with true lo-fi aura in this single. I composed this song somewhere in the second half of last year. Chill when your mind is full has an unusually long title, but at the end I was unable to express the vibe in another way. I mean I tend to title my beats shorter. Much shorter. Most of my album titles to get one word only. Yet, I was lost a bit with this song. I was in-fact considering whether I should feature it on Travellers or move it to a b-side song. At the end, I believe the emotion fits the concept. Even, if this beat is not entirely chill-out.

    Chill when your mind is full B-side beats

    In plural as this single offers 2 extra beats: Big Ben Jazz (Travellers version) and Melody of the Shadow (Travellers version).

    As previously covered: I worked on Travellers album for years, as a result I have tons of extra beats pilled up. Big Ben Jazz’s new version was recorded on PO-33 right before X-mas last year. I had my chance practising in my free time ending up playing some old beats as well. Big Ben Jazz is a particular fave one from 2017, essentially I was playing it time to time.

    Lastly, Melody of the Shadow. A song that was originally released on Dragonic Eve in 2009. I reworked this song somewhere during the summer break last year. I intended to refresh it within the limitation and possibilities of PO-33 KO.

    Soul Silver as the black sheep of Chill Mixtery #6

    Soul Silver album is a weird one as it features chiptune songs sampled from Game Boy Advance. It was also an interesting release as it was my first inspired by Pokémon game. It was followed by Leaf Green, which is a truly nature chill-out release with some arpeggios to spice. But yes, this one is also inspired by Pokémon games.

    More nature chill-out on Chill Mixtery #6

    After Leaf Green shortly Moon album was released. On one side, yes, it is also inspired by the same game and I consider it as a nature chill-out album. On the other hand Moon was a bit different for me. This album is fully built on my travels and that exotic experience. I would say Moon album is heavily influenced by Sardinia and Zakynthos.

    It was followed by Orange. Orange was my 14th album and the 4th one offering songs for Chill Mixtery #6. It became a bit bittersweet compare to the previous releases, but I believe that was its fate. I mean, time-to-time we ought to release some albums that are sad in order to be happy again.

    Lo-fi at the end of Chill Mixtery #6

    Last but not least: Stay Home. My first ever fully lo-fi album released after got infected during the pandemic by the end of 2020. It was a very interesting period of my life. I was stuck at home, leaving me no option to literally leave my room either. I decided to use up my free time and start learning something new. During these weeks, I learnt to use Izotope Vinyl VST as well as how to sound more oldish. I started learning the way how to sample melodies. Where to find them, etc.

    As a results I was able to finish Stay Home in a couple of weeks. Maybe not much more than a week. I felt renewed when I was declared healthy and could go out again. This is why maybe, that I added so many songs from this album to Chill Mixtery #6. I believe that this release changed a bit the course of Latte Chill project as well, focusing more on lo-fi from now on.
