Stardog Lofi & Ovyuki are excited to announce the launch of Lofi-Futurism, a new project that explores the fusion of lofi hip hop and Afrofuturism.

We encourage you to engage with the reference materials, get creative and experiment with different sounds, influences and themes that reflect your vision of Afrofuturism. Whether you want to incorporate elements of science fiction, fantasy, history or culture, we want to hear your unique perspective on how lofi hip hop can express your identity and aspirations.
