takeo is an instrumentalist and beatmaker from Los Angeles, California. While in grad school studying computer science at university, much of his free time is spent in his home studio making mellow lofi hip hop beats. With past success alongside indie labels Lofi Girl and Chillhop Music - as well as collaborations with SwuM, Two Sleepy, Spencer Hunt, Jinsang, and many others - takeo (fka tysu) has his footing in the world of lofi but is still very early in his sonic narrative. He's grateful to have the opportunity to share his music with the world and hopes to continue expressing his passion for music in his future releases. takeo and Spencer Hunt present their six song project, Echo Lake. With over 100 million streams across their collaborative history (including the massively successful 2020 album Window Seat), the two continue to showcase their chemistry and energy, one lofi bump at a time. This is instrumental hip-hop, study beats, chill vibes, you name it. It's laid-back and perfect for the summer, the fall, and well into the winter. Focus track "Kronovi" sounds like jumping into a pool, sitting around a fire with friends, or going on a late night cruise, just you and the moon. It's upbeat, it's cozy, it's chill.
