Pure Noise Records have shared a series of lo-fi remixes of popular tracks from bands on their label roster. The new album/playlist, titled ‘Pure Noise Lofi Vol. 1,’ sees the label collaborate with electronic producers Mik and Less Gravity to create 15 chilled renditions of fan favorites from a number of bands, including The Story So Far, Knocked Loose, Four Year Strong, and Counterparts.
Here’s what Mik had to say about the project: “I was first inspired to create lo-fi beats when I was still a university student. Listening to lo-fi hip-hop helped me get through assignments, last-minute studying sessions, and my commute to school. It’s a fluid genre when it comes to production style, and I typically approach writing my music by creating a nostalgic atmosphere first and foremost. I listened to a ton of punk rock in high school, so working on these lo-fi covers with Pure Noise Records has been a wonderfully nostalgic journey.”
