  • [Single] Rushy Day

    rushy day

    Rushy Day is a lo-fi single beat from Travellers album you may grab for free by clicking on the cover above. In case you are interested about the beat, production and else, check the song below and read further.

    Rushy Day was originally composed somewhere last year in 2021. I produced the song using my PO-33 KO and spiced it with some samples. What made Rushy Day unique on the album as well as among other Latte Chill lo-fi beats is the short cuts. I mean this song has lots of short bleeps and boops chopped from samples. It makes the song pretty upbeat. Yet, I hope you find it more a happy vibe song.

    As for the cover, it was shot in Vienna a couple of years before. I preferred this photo pretty much and was saving it up on my phone, looking for the perfect opportunity. It kind of matches that urban vibe Rushy Day offers. I mean like walking in the city until sunset. I really love these kind of days, especially when I have the chance to travel.

    Rushy Day lo-fi single has a B-side song as well

    Indeed, I was able to release Travellers singles with b-side songs. In this particular case it is the remake of Faro Solitaro. I recorded the beat much earlier last year live on my PO-33 KO. At the end I paired it up with Rushy Day. I believe the title song’s true lo-fi urban vibe matches with Faro Solitaro’s latest cover vibe. A bit of a dreamy sea beat but also focusing on the joy of being away from keyboard. Exploring the world and travelling.

  • What is Lo-fi?

    Lofi or Lo-fi, aka low-fidelity, most commonly refers to the sound quality and therefore defines a genre of audio composition. Let me go deeper on that topic later.

    Side note: I am offering you some free lo-fi music beats to listen to, while you are reading this article. In case Spotify is not your flavour, I am adding a Youtube link to the bottom as well. So scroll down before you start if you wish to listen to some background music.

    Definition of Lo-fi

    Whereas generally speaking about ‘lo-fi’, it has received some other meanings over the past years. If you just click on Wikipedia. Besides Lo-fi music, which is number 1 in most countries, you immediately find the Lo-fi disambiguation page. This page helps us check other possible meanings and Wikipedia search results with the word lofi.

    Many of those refer to my original point: Lofi music, hip-hop, band, etc. Even Lofi Girl refers to a YouTube channel (formally known as ChilledCow) that is quite well-known to the fans of the genre.

    A bit about Photography

    On the other hand, it may also refer to photography. In this sense finally, we are not to cover music but the concept remains almost the same. Low fidelity – the imitation of low quality. I have to state though that the aim of “low quality” is never to produce “small” photos on Instagram but to offer a warm, grainy vibe.

    We almost hint that the photo is imperfect. As if they were done by a toy camera or an old film camera. But (in my case) I work with an Honor 20 Pro smartphone camera and I process my photos with Snapseed and/or Lightroom. It depends on my mood and what I wish to achieve.

    Characteristics of Lo-fi generally

    In case you wish to deep dive a bit. Although I do my best to share articles time-to-time with you. But you may also read great ones here.

    Why City Lo-fi?

    In essence the title City Lo-fi reflects on my art in many aspects. Originally I started Latte Chill project to compose song far from my band’s genre (rock, metal, punk). So I started experimenting myself with electro beats, instrumental songs etc. As a result, I soon ended up composing chill songs and lately lo-fi beats. However I never limited myself to slow pieces only.
