Now that the once strictly underground sub-genre of house music has emerged to more broader audience that it was once intended for, with producers like DJ Seinfeld, Ross From Friends, Mall Grab or DJ Boring gaining millions of views of their tracks on Youtube, the lo-fi dance music scene has been the subject of some backlash by the trendy blogs and news media webzines like Thump or Factmag. Accused of being overly too aesthetic, lack of original ideas, silly gimmicks, ironic and almost parodying attitude to the scene, some have called the sub-genre as a spoof of house music.
But that talk is all nonsense. Rubbish. The truth is that some of the very best underground dance music anthems of recent years have stemmed from the lo-fi scene. Like this track from Rimbaudian, which incidentally is a DJ Seinfeld alias. It's beautiful, and the fan video goes along with it perfectly. Totally mesmerizing.
