  • [Single] Nue

    Nue lofi beat

    Nue is one of the beats from the upcoming Demon Festival EP that is coming soon.

    But what does Nue mean?

    “In the Tale of Heike, it is described as a Japanese chimera having the head of a monkey, the limbs of a tiger, the body of a Japanese raccoon dog and the front half of a snake for a tail.” – Wikipedia

    But in Japan it also refers to the bird, that makes cries at night. This part of the Wiki article that made me choose this song as a title.

    To me Nue is a night lofi beat and I kind of liked the word. I mean how it sounds.

    To boost this vibe, I gave it a night photo I took actually in Japan. In 2019, we spent 10 days with my wife in Tokyo, shooting tons of photos and videos. This photo features some business men looking for a place to eat dinner after a hard days work back in April. Kind of sums up Tokyo’s night vibe in many areas.

  • [Single] Hate My Wings

    Hate my Wings chilling ermines

    Hate My Wings of Chilling Ermines is a collaboration with Jigsaw featuring the lofi hip-hop versions of old T21CB songs.

    Hate My Wings in fact was one of the first beats we ever recorded as a band in 2006 (omg way to long time ago). I remember playing my old Casio synth and Jigsaw joined on acoustic guitars and vocals back then in our old winery. Good old times. We even recorded some videos if I recall it well.

    Anyways that actually happened 15 years ago! And T21CB is still active. We still produce songs from experimental metal to art rock. Follow us on our Bandcamp page and enjoy the 15th anniversary tribute beats. They are instrumental ones, lofi vibe with dope beats. All curated by Jigsaw before going live.

    Check the song below on YouTube or scroll back to the top and hit the cover. That will redirect you to T21CB’s Bandcamp page, where you can check the whole single with 3 extra songs, including the demo edition of Hate My Wings. The rest 2 songs are the rap version of the same song featuring the thoughts of Jigsaw on our 15th anniversary as well as the demo version of L$D//LHD song.

  • [Single] Stray Cats’ Waltz

    Stray Cats' Waltz - Latte Chill

    Third single from Cherryland – a Dark Cherry lofi cover compilation.
    Stray Cats’ Waltz is a song that was performed many times in 2010.

    What can I say about this song. I have so much. As for the title, it was the actual working title of the song (later known as ‘Holdkeringő’ which stands for Moon Waltz in Hungarian).

    Kyoki, the original author gave it and I liked this title so much to use it while working on the cover.

    The lyrics where written by me. It is vaguely about Romeo and Juliet of Shakespeare. On top of that I even sing some words in archaic way to make it sound old as a song.

    This song was recorded in studio and was released on our second studio single as a B-side song. We performed it in several towns and on several gigs despite its classical vibe.

    Fun fact maybe that the drums are mixing rhythm at the end between 3/4 and 4/4 if I recall it well. It took weeks for Cay to practice so that he can play the changes while listening to the 4/4 metronome that helps him keeping the tempo.

    Original song:
