Really Bad Moon Rising is a hilariously lofi take on the Creedence Clearwater Revival classic rock song. This version has only an accordion and ukelele as instrumentation. And by “lofi,” I mean, it was done in one take from a laptop’s built-in mic.

Trigger warning: Mortality.
Dead Man’s Will is a slow, pretty, and sad folk song, a cover of a Iron and Wine / Calexico tune, which has sorta depressing lyrics.

Circles sounds like a 90’s alt-rock tune, with lofi fuzzy guitars and a singer who does sound a bit like TMBG, as peterkins pointed out.

Kids is a lofi cover of a song by MGMT. It’s raucous and fun.

shallow song/airport fiction is really two songs – first folk, then folk rock, both with ukeleles and a guitar. I really like airport fiction, and I’m not sure if it’s because, or despite, the fact that it’s really lofi.
It’s multivalent’s first posted song!
Oh Balloon Boy by cortex

Oh Balloon Boy is a raucous lofi pop rock song. The lyrics are from mikepop (first song here!), and the rest from cortex. The song’s based on the balloon boy hoax of October 2009. I feel like I should have some useful tag for music drawn from real-life events. News? Non-fiction, perhaps? “Reality” sounds ridiculous here.
Edit: If you’re wondering where he went, Falcon “Balloon Boy” Heene surfaced earlier this year in a very young metal band.

No Name #2 is sort of a lofi demo of an indie folk song. It has only oceanview’s voice and her guitar playing, and it’s quite lovely.
It’s the only song she’s posted to Mefi Music so far.

Whispers is a charming lofi folk song, about the aftermath of a nearby car accident, with onlookers and someone who gravitated toward the ready audience. It’s part of an unofficial Music challenge, recorded on a laptop’s built-in microphones.

This is the demo version of Subject of the Kill, a rough, lo-fi, and garage rock song. The final pop-rock version was also posted – I liked it less. These two versions are the only songs posted by de novo dahl to date. I should label those – suggestions for a tag, anyone?

I love this song! King Of The Road is another punk, NSFW version of the frequently covered Roger Miller country song. This was posted by lothar as a reaction to hearing uncleozzy’s version, also featured here. In comparison, this one has more fun guitarwork and less pinched vocals.

Tryptophantastic (2007 edit) is a lo-fi take on a Thanksgiving family gathering. It’s distorted – loud, warm, & fuzzy.
