  • [Single] Mutsuki

    mutsuki lofi single by Latte Chill

    Mutsuki (Japanese: 睦月) means “Month of Love” or “Month of Affection”. It is the traditional name for January and I celebrated it with a beat I composed during the month.

    The single is free to grab, simply click on the cover above. Mutsuki rocks the PO-33 KO, offering an oriental lofi vibe instrumental beat with hip-hop spice. I used an old soundpack I used during the production of Wabi-Sabi LP, back in 2021. Give it a spin as well until I release the next beat. Mastering differs slightly though. We all advance over the years, right? Wabi-Sabi was more laidback, Mutsuki offers slightly more punchiness and bass with a more upbeat tempo. I guess it also came down to the title and the concept. Love is like making your heart pound faster. So a chill beat to raise the tempo slightly. Still, it matches your coffee alright.

    The cover image is a photo I took during my trip to Tokyo back in 2019. I hope you like it. I believe it matches the title pretty well. And yes, essentially I do my best to have more new PO-33 KO beats in the future. I hope I will have the time to fulfill them for you.

  • [Field Notes] Old Piano

    I will share some unique piano sounds with you today: Old Piano field notes from Szeged — a Sample Pack.

    Bring a new dimension to your music with Old Piano from Szeged. It is a carefully crafted sample pack that delivers the authentic, haunting resonance of an old piano recorded in Szeged.

    This release is a part of my ongoing effort to provide distinctive, royalty-free sounds that inspire creativity and experimentation in your productions.

    About the Old Piano Field Notes

    Recorded on-site with a high-quality field recorder, these samples capture the warmth and character of a vintage piano. Each sound is concise — 1-2 seconds in length — making them ideal (and lightweight) for looping or as unique keyboard layers in your beats. The pack works especially well with dawless hardware samplers and on-the-go software. Basically, I mean gadgets like the Koala Sampler or the Pocket Operator 33, letting you reshape these sounds to suit your style and expertise.

    In case you would be interested, I used my Tascam field microphone I usually take with me during my trips. Read more about it in the Pocket Operator article above. It is a relatively inexpensive model but suits well for pocket music producers.

    Download and Make It Yours

    Old Piano from Szeged is free to download on my Bandcamp page. Simply click on the cover art to access it. I’m also working on other sample packs with various ambient field recordings, so stay tuned for new releases soon!

    If you use these piano samples, I’d love to hear your creations! Please share your tracks with me, and don’t forget to check out more of my music in the ‘Music’ section above.
