I am looking to make some lo-fi tracks and I really love some of the sounds of the game melatonin. Any idea of which syths, vsts or instruments were use?

these are the types of sounds I am looking for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRQ9jn6abrA&ab_channel=HalfAsleepGames-Topic

Hi everyone, just joined this sub recently to broaden my horizons a little as I'm intrigued by the genre (I typically make more retro-ish synth music).

Question: Is it really true that Lo-Fi HH artists sample a bit of everything from old records etc. and actually manage to get away with it?

Just wondering, since typically the overzealous algorithms of YouTube, Spotify etc. flag anything even remotely suspicious (even if legal and licensed), so it's hard to understand how they'd get away with samples from old records. Or is it so that the more known artists typically clear the used material? Or do they make their own using session musicians, own instruments, resampling of old takes?

Thanks for enlightening me :)

Hello!

I'm looking to partner with Lofi music creators for a new channel, which will be heavily worked on within the next few months to get ready for launch. I have already employed the aid of illustrators and animators, but I will need permission from talented Lofi music artists for use on the playlists both on YouTube and Spotify. Creators would need to fill in a permission form to be able to be featured to avoid copyright issues. Of course, artists would be credited with a link to their desired content page.

The theme of the channel will feature to main characters, which will be consistent through the content by which the music will fit the tone of the environment they are in.

If anyone would be interested please DM me with your spotify page if you have one.

I'm just wondering how and when we went from this:

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGLdfdzKnoQ
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBTi8xxpVq4
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKGmnNAgr74

To almost everything sounding exactly like this:

This is in no way a diss or a knock towards the latter. I love and respect all kinds of music. Maybe I am just confused on genre's but I've always assumed these all fell under the lo fi hip hop category. It seems to be around 2016-2019 that this style of lo fi really peaked. Artists like Limes, Kavv, The Deli, Etc.

It seems when I put on lo fi now and go to the live channels almost everything has that "Chillhop" or ambient sounding lo-fi to it. I really miss the old jazzy beats. Or maybe I'm uncultured and someone can point me in the right direction of what the subgenre is actually called to what I listed and name some artists who still produce like that? Thanks all

Hello everyone, I’m currently putting together an ep, I got a couple of tracks done, and even tho they all have a similar mood and connecting elements like bouncy drums, and a dilla style bassline, they also have important differences, for example one of em is a jazzy piano track with more oldschool Lofi drums, another track only has synths with more chillhop/jazzhop drums, another one is a blend of the 2, etc… My question is what are your thoughts on this, if you have put an ep/album together how did you go about it? I know at the end of the day there also an artistic choice involved, but any opinions are appreciated anyways
