If we had to decide what the soundtrack of the post-2010 Internet was, lo-fi would be the only reasonable answer.

Since the terms «lo-fi hip-hop» and «chillhop» started circulating more than a decade ago, the genre has undergone quite the metamorphosis. What was once a score for the geekiest places on the web—spread by young kids in the form of amateur mixtapes with anime-inspired art—became a mainstream sensation that even Will Smith and Disney tried to exploit at one point.
