Coming On Strong

Hot Chip

Skeletal, lo-fi electronic pop recorded in a bedroom. Fragile falsettos meet wonky drum machines and dusty synths in a charmingly unpolished debut.

It's like a soulful R&B record made by two shy guys with a Casio in a messy bedroom.

A gentle, slightly awkward intimacy that feels like a private conversation set to minimal beats.

Lo Fi+1.6σ

The production is pushed notably harder into lo fi than this artist usually allows.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The skeletal beat of Take Care underpinning a vocal performance that feels like it might shatter at any second.
The jarring, humorous shift into aggressive but lo-fi profanity on Bad Luck over a clunky rhythm.
The way One One One dissolves into a quiet, meditative synth hum that feels like a summer ending.
