Has anyone been listening to that new Chainsmokers LoFi remixes album? I’ve heard a lot of hype about it, streaming it now, it sounds LIKE LoFi with a pop/hook focused appeal while preserving that classic LoFi hypnosis that the style is known for.
Great for background focus, or even emotional zone outs.
Anyone’s cup of tea?

At first I was a bit meh but this keeps running through my head like an itch I have to scratch by listening to.

The mid-song metal drop lured me in, but it’s the vocals that keep me coming back

Just laying around Saturday afternoon listening to Apple Music B52’s Essentials playlist. iPhone, Dunu Titan S, iFi SE dongle.
Just fine.
Better half right next to me looking at BTS videos on her iPhone.
That’s the way to do it.

One of my longstanding ALL-TIME favorite tracks. Now through the “best” headphones and “best” amp in the world.

So I listened, Do you agree with Qobuz’ assessment of track 1? I quite liked it, not everything requires a build to climax.

Mmmm, not really. “Xpander” is a seminal classic in the progressive trance genre, and a career defining hit for Sasha, who before the advent of mainstream “EDM” was indisputably the biggest DJ in the world. This EP is full of goodness start to finish, but it’s the last track “Baja” that has always fascinated me. The slow burn build to an explosive climax is so satisfying (*interestingly, the liner notes rather enigmatically say “recorded at the Great Barrier Reef”).
“Xpander” on the other hand folds in on itself and circles back to repeat its main chorus over and over again in a hypnotic way. It DESTROYED dancefloors in the late 90s.

Moody ambient experimental and well recorded. Think Portico Quartet but a little more “ECM” jazz flavored.
