It's getting harder to tell what's real anymore.
​
AI "slop" content is everywhere. Fast, cheap, and soulless.
​
So I labeled my new holiday album clearly:
​
"Real field recordings. Captured on location."

I made a lofi holiday album with chill remixes of my favorite seasonal tunes.
​
But I didn't just produce it in a studio.
​
I recorded real sounds while traveling through Lichtenstein, France, Oman, New York, and beyond.
​
Church bells. Street conversations.

Wind. Water. People.

No stock samples. No shortcuts.
​
(And no collaborators.)
​
Just real moments turned into music.

Sure, I could have used a free sound of rain.
​
But I wanted the real thing.
​
The same way you'd rather eat real food than a substitute.
​
Because it feels different. And it means more.

Here's to keeping it human.

I hope you enjoy the music.

🎵 Music​
​
​bells and beats: retro reflections for the holidays (lofi volume 1) by kabir sehgal (intentionally lowercase!). Cozy, nostalgic album that pairs lo-fi textures with vintage holiday themes. Each track blends mellow beats with subtle holiday motifs, crafted to feel like vinyl spinning in a candlelit room. Authentic ambient sounds from Grand Central, the Palace of Versailles to the beaches of Oman. This is how I made the project.
