Lofi music producer linanthem crafts relaxed instrumentals that pay homage to lofi’s hip-hop predecessors while pushing the genre forward. His style evokes a spiritual blend of influences rooted in the foundation of J. Dilla, Nujabes, and Clams Casino. Like watching the rain fall or tending to a garden, his songs are mystical, philosophical, and relaxed in nature. The Raleigh, North Carolina resident shapes each release with a blend of sample-driven bumps, cinematic instrumentals, and meditative dreamscapes. Press play and grow. Close your eyes and float. linanthem's second single off of his upcoming '(self) care pt. 2' EP is called 'in transit'. The 90 second beat feels like being stuck in traffic, en route to a new place, curving through a new city with the GPS activated. Complete with horns and firework field recordings, it sounds intimate and personal and calm.
