Stream/ download: ‘so easy’

cliffe, a producer and songwriter from Yonkers, New York, arrived in the lo-fi hip hop scene with the release of his first full-length instrumental album isolation. Independently, cliffe has been supported by thebootlegboy on his Japanese Lofi HipHop playlist. Towards the start of 2021, cliffe ventured into writing and recording on top of his beats, all of which would be on his first album fully showcasing his vocals, released with Secret Souls. Since then, cliffe and eevee have collaborated several times including multiple singles and the collaborative album dead end. The two are on a path to make a new mark on the lofi genre, calling to mind other trailblazers such as Nosaj Thing, Shlohmo, Jinsang, and  [bsd.u].

Irresistibly mellow, eevee and cliffe’s latest single is the essence of laid back Sunday afternoons as the listener floats through memories tinged in rose gold. ‘so easy’ is an escapist’s dream as each luring bassline meets the rhythmic cadence of unassuming vocals.

eevee tells us about the creation of the single: “I had a romantic mood in my head I wanted to portray with “so easy”. I sent cliffe a raw version and he added lyrics over it. I loved what he did, so I layered the drums you hear in the second verse over it. It all came together so well: this is my favorite beat we’ve made so far!”
