Sound
Lo Life includes REX2 Loops, WAV Samples, Reason ReFill and Ableton Live Pack. According to the producer, the content is 100% Royalty-Free when you use it in your production.
The collection comes lush synth, instrumental loops, chords loops, and drum grooves, produced with analog gear for the vibe. This vintage sounding sample pack contains synth leads, chords, keys, pads, mallets, basses, drums, percussion and washes of vinyl static presented from 106 – 122 BPM.
The sound of the included WAV files is excellent. To further push the sound and blend it in you can look into using the excellent Vulf Compressor or Wow Control by Goodhertz.
I found many of the 100 MIDI files helpful, you can use them to get a project going and change them accordingly.

Rating: Four out of five stars
Lo Life is a focused and small library of lo-fi with a vintage vibe. The special sauce from Lo-Fi sounds comes from that they are not as perfect and pristine as possible. This pack is nice for inspiration and quick wins to get a song started or add the lush vibe you need to any genre.
