I agree. I gave it a casual listen because im at work but majority of beats today are spot on. Its like I went to the lofi girl channel on YT
This was my thought too :ROFLMAO:

I've lowkey half based my voting on that exact criteria "does this sound like lofi girl radio?

Then if it actually sounds lo fi and also on the then mix and personal taste.

I don't think I'm placing this battle.
 
I was away at work for few days, woke this morning had 3 hours before voting and realised uploads still open!
Fired up the MPC, rapid finger drumming, played out some off the cuff quick melodies (if i can call it that) added some bits and bobs and blasted it up to the ILL. Wont be placing or anything but fuck it, I'm still in! :ROFLMAO:

Some absolute quality beats in this one and a damn fine turn out again. Dope!
 
Gotta love these themes as usually I know someone isn't getting my vote if its off theme but dope as fuck.
However with this Lofi theme I can hear it in so many different variations and levels it's so tricky to vote for. Vote is in but damn some really good shit today peeps! :fire:

Can't remember who I voted for,


I think it was @Mike Free Music or @DJ Excellence , and @SwayeeBoogie was also close decision - mega surprised 2 of these didn't place!!!

I could immediately tell @2GooD Productions beat, just because of how I felt he would approach degrading everything.
I could also immediately tell @Jimulacrum beat - bro, the fact I identify your beat week in week out without hesitation, is a good good sign. There's something unique about your style, that I really like. Keep trusting that gut instinct in your compositions, brother

I also listened to all the entries like 'I can't tell which beat is @Delta_Nine ' which make sense to see he didn't enter.
 
My faves

@DJ Excellence love the bassline and drum selection
@kwaz kinda dilla esque
@Da Archangels may have to steal the intro lol jk. Really good work.
@Iron Keys love the looseness of the drums. To me ur the king of basslines. U didn't place? Wow.
Yea indeed. I was trying to reach the greatest Lofi beat makers (Nujabes & J Dilla). My mix sucks tho. I unload the wrong mix:rolleyes:
