  • [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.

    Shogi pv with Tokyo nights

    Check this little but peaceful video of the Tokyo night from above. Lovely scenery matching my latest song’s vibe, right? I happened to be in Tokyo in 2019. One of my best journeys so far. Loved that place. I wish I can afford to travel back sometimes later.

    Fun facts about the single

    The cover photo was taken in Budapest close to my apartment during sakura. It means cherry blossom, the rebirth of nature. I used this and similar photos during the production of Wabi-Sabi. Hoping to release another Asian (or oriental) themed lofi beats LP. Simply, I love working music like this.

    The song itself is one of the earliest songs I have composed on my PO-33 KO.
