  • [Single] Cute Melody

    Cute Melody single cover from Tokyo, Asakusa

    Cute Melody is a new single from Stock Stories Extended EP released a couple of days before. Listen to the song above. A little lo-fi melody composed on my Pocket Operator 33 KO.

    Cute Melody and Stock Stories Extended EP

    Stock Stories was originally released in 2021. A simple lo-fi EP and as its name suggest: I only used stock notes during the production. When I purchased my PO-33 KO, I literally had no idea how to use it. As a result I started jamming on it. I did not rush to produce beats with it. At first I wanted to understand how does it work. At the end I put together the best beats and released Stock Stories.

    Months later I realised that Stock Stories is pretty quiet compare to the rest of Latte Chill lo-fi releases. Therefore I had difficulties to use them on mixes. I decided to remaster them after a year.

    On the other hand I wish to add something extra: 4 new songs. Actually I doubled Stock Stories. This is where Cute Melody came to the picture. On the of the first melodies I produced for the remaster. Also I worked on these new beats to make the mix better. It is not just the volume that has been aligned but I built a different rack as well.

    Fun fact: I used the same photo for Stock Stories EP and Stock Stories Extended EP. I am not intending to deceive anyone. Even on my website the extended edition got an extra paragraph and that is it.

    Fun fact 2: the photo of Cute Melody on the other hand was shot in Tokyo. It was back in 2019. I found that photo dope and therefore used it as a cover. I took it in Asakusa by the famous gate you probably saw on many photos.

    Fun Fact 3: the song is free. Click on the cover to get Cute Melody.

  • [Single] Rust Borough

    Rust Borough is the last single from Sapphire album. Click on the cover and grab it for free.
    The song is a lo-fi beat but the upbeat type of. Fully composed with PO-33 KO. A little pocket sampler released by Teenage Engineering. It was composed during my trip to Lefkada if I recall it well. Therefore pretty minimalist as I did not use DAW or even Koala Sampler.

    The cover of Rust Borough on the other hand features a photo from my trip to Tokyo. It was in 2019. We shot many photos randomly with my wife. Some turned out to be perfect cover materials for my releases. I edited it with Snapseed and used Adobe smartphone apps either. I mean for the titling and adding some texts.

    As for the song: Rust Borough is inspired by a Pokémon game. You may guess which. I replayed it after like 10+ years. As a result I started working on some beats and later released them. Sapphire is like the first part of a duo album. More to come in 2022 I promise. Keep following, not to miss what happens after Rust Borough. Enjoy lo-fi house like beats for free by following me on my channels.

  • [Single] Meteor Falls

    Meteor Falls by Latte Chill

    Meteor Falls is a new single released on the 27th of December. The title song is a lofi chillout beat produced with PO-33 KO on the go. I was inspired by the game of Pokémon Sapphire and replayed it after so many years. Spoiler: one more single to come, all songs are going to be fully free.

    Until then enjoy Meteor Falls and the complete Sapphire album. And buy me a ko-fi if you can.

    Bit more about Meteor Falls

    The song as mentioned above was produced on the go. We travelled with my wife to Lefkada by fall. I took my PO-33 KO along with myself to the journey and kept composing beats. As a result, I ended up sketching a dozen of beats I started to use up as part of my releases. I have a couple of more to go. Sapphire features many of the songs. Ruby, that may come somewhere in 2022 will also feature sketches.

    I felt challenged to work on beats without a DAW. Almost finishing them in one go. 4 lines for melodies and drums. That is what PO-33 can offer. That really offered my a frame how to think during the production. I mean to my point of view lo-fi beats are generally simple. But limiting ourselves to 4 is a different matter.
