There’s a new person in the Lofi Girl universe. The countdown to the mysterious new Lofi Girl stream ended on Tuesday, and when it was over, a person in a purple sweater and an adorable dog sat down at their computer and started listening to some great synthwave beats.
can you hear the new stream here. The new person in the stream has no name; an advertisement for the Lofi Girl channel only calls them a “whole new character”. “Get ready to be fully immersed in the new realm of retro-futuristic sounds and join us as we embark on a journey through time and space, exploring the wonders of Synthwave and unraveling the mysteries of the Lofi universe!” part of the ad says.
Now, the lofi girl channel It has three streams: the new “synthwave radio 🌌 – chill/play beats”; the original “lofi hip hop radio 📚 – rhythms to relax/study”; and the softest “Lofi hip hop radio – sleep/chill out beats.” This new synthwave persona actually lives close to the original Lofi Girl character. When the countdown ended, the main stream of Lofi Girl moved away from the new character to the original person’s family room and cat. And in both the original and new broadcasts, you can see the glow of each other’s rooms in the distance.
I’m really digging the new synthwave channel. I’ve already shared my love of relaxing listening beats, but I also like how the new environment feels remarkably similar to my own. This new person is typing on a computer and has an R2-D2 figure on his desk and an NES controller in the corner; I spend my hours typing on a computer and have a Grogu figurine and my Steam Deck to the side of my own workspace. The new person and I are even wearing hats! I just need a lava lamp to complete my cosplay.
