Lofi House Tutorial

















Lofi House has become rather popular this past couple of years with names like DJ Seinfeld and Mall Grab leading the way in this genre that gives House music its rawness back and takes away the polished elements of high end studio production and returns it to the more bedroom raw analogue tape quality vibe which was how House music began back in the 80's.





So here is Waxadiscs attempt at making a Lofi House track but with a more soulful vibe. Included in the tutorial are the links for free Rhodes samples that Waxadisc created, and also the free links to the VST that was used in the video below.





Remember that making Lofi House has very few rules in order to create a track. The only thing that really needs to be followed at the start is the use of saturation and distortion in the drum sounds and the very subtle use of a replicated or sampled cassette tape hiss sound and you are on your way. It is simply a case of getting deep and gritty and trying a variety a different genre techniques such as Ambient, Trance, Soul, Disco and so on, you really can add any kind of element to Lofi House & Techno. Enjoy.
