frumhere, kevatta – “warm feeling“
If frumhere & kevatta are not your aesthetic music playlist, it’s time to get them added. Spotify best describes frumhere’s sound as “a dreamlike form of lo-fi touched with the sweet haze of nostalgia.” Their music feels warm, fuzzy, and comforting. We’re a big fan of the collab album “Bedtime Stories,” but you really can’t go wrong with any of their releases.

Fiji Blue – “Lucky“
Everybody loves Fiji Blue. We first heard their single “Butterflies” back in 2020 and haven’t stopped listening to their music since. Self-described as “sad boy chill house,” we find their music to be a perfect complement to any aesthetic playlist. In additional to “Lucky,” we recommend checking out their song “The Way That I Am.”
ninjoi. – “Passin“
If you’re a fan of lofi, ninjoi. needs to be on your playlist. Joshua Batista (aka ninjoi.) produces amazing mellow jazz hip-hop with the perfect amount of melancholy. “Passin” is one of his most popular songs, but we are fans of everything he releases. ninjoi.’s music is absolutely perfect as background music for aesthetic videos, vlogs, and intros.

Madeline Lauer – “Silky“
Words like sensual, calming, and addicting perfectly describe the beautiful music from Madeline Lauer.

Creators find her music to be a great soundtrack to any easy-going morning routine video.
