Chillhop Society
Slow beats for short days. We're a small lofi label making warm, crackly music for rainy afternoons, late study sessions and long walks under the maples.
The radio is generated live in your browser, so no two loops are the same. Psst: the tree is shakeable.
Music for the slow half of the year
Chillhop Society is an independent lofi label. We release warm, dusty, slightly wobbly beats for the months when the light turns golden and the evenings get long.
For studying, cooking, reading, or staring out of a rainy window for no reason at all. We're small on purpose: a handful of artists, a few tapes a season, and a lot of care for each one.
-
Warm beats perfect
We keep the tape hiss, the late snare and the piano that's a little out of tune. That's where the cozy lives.
-
Released by season
Our music comes out in seasonal tapes. Autumn first, obviously.
-
Artists first
Every release is made by a real person with a name, a story and their credit on the cover.
The look and the sound
Everything we make should feel like a hoodie straight out of the dryer.
Colours from a walk in the woods

Type
DynaPuff for titles. Round, soft and a bit bouncy, like a knitted hat.
Figtree for everything you actually read. Clear and friendly.
