Have you heard of Lo-Fi? I know many times people are looking for the best quality music possible, but this is movement (originally coined in the 1980s) that brings the lower quality of music to the limelight.
One of the interesting formulas for a Lo-Fi song is to use a piece of music from the 70s or 80s and loop it with a steady beat. It’s fascinating, and static only adds to the nostalgia of the piece. The purpose isn’t to bring meaning to the world, but to slow down in a world that is moving too fast.
Have some examples, and ask your students about what they learned for Lo-Fi in the music lab this month!
