Melemele Sea is the latest lofi chill beat. It was fully recorded on PO-33 KO (see the video below). I mastered it on Ableton later along with the other tracks.
Melemele Sea
Minimal, but I hope it’s an entertaining video on how I am producing beats like Melemele Sea. Even though you see one video at the end, it usually takes me hours to have the perfect record I’m looking for.
Usually, I start sketching and gradually get to either a main melody progression or the drums. Once it is set, I start building on them, form the patterns, and then … bam. I hope to have a finished concept. That is when I started recording. Usually, I mess up the first ones.
Anyway, this song is particularly close to me. I love that arp in the background. I believe it really offers such a floating vibe, you may encounter if you are sailing. It was a bit inspired by some past holidays. If we visit the sea with my wife, I usually go on ship trips. Helps me learn more about the island than any other form of touring.
Where to find the song?
It’s a new single from the upcoming album Ultra Moon. So click on the link and learn the story of my album. I’m happy if you listen to the song on stream platforms. That means I get some royalty. And these few cents help me create more music.

Wabi-Sabi album is heavily building on ikigai. That means the “reason for being”. The concept of waking up every day and doing what you do according to Japanese culture. I went more in-depth on this matter as part of the album description linked above. So click if you are interested.
The point is that the album title literally means “chilling alone”. A kind of being for yourself, thinking. I thought this is the perfect title for an instrumental chill album, I believe perfect for focus time. It has soothing beats, happy vibe songs and even sad chill ones. Offering a range of moods and this way you also have the chance to go over the different vibes.
Why is it important?
I believe and this is the key message of Monte Cristo as well: you can only be truly happy if you have been truly sad. You can only enjoy life if you have the different moods right, so at the end enjoy what you have.
