Move over Lofi Girl<\/a>, there’s a new mellow YouTube music channel in town. Square Enix Music Channel released a chill 24\/7 stream on Thursday morning, playing remixes of the publisher\u2019s catchiest tracks from its most popular games. The YouTube playlist, called Chill Square Enix Music 24\/7<\/a>, is also available on Spotify.<\/p>\n

Square Enix<\/a> is known for its games\u2019 excellent soundtracks. Nier: Automata<\/em><\/a> is a personal favorite of mine, composed by Keiichi Okabe and full of beautiful orchestral arrangements that suit the game\u2019s exploration and combat elements. <\/p>\n

In that vein, Square\u2019s lofi music is slightly livelier than I expected, since every so often a fight track comes on. I’ve been able to recognize specific songs, or at least the names of the games that the songs have come from. So far I’ve listened to \u201c[NieR Re[in]carnation Chill Out Arrangement Tracks]\u201d and \u201c[Sanctuary’s Heart: Final Fantasy XIV Chill Arrangement Album].\u201d They both whip.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chill Square Enix Music\u2019s visual aesthetic also has a lot in common with the original Lofi Girl, but rendered in an adorable pixel art style. In the background image, a woman with light blue hair is conked out in front of a laptop screen. She’s got corded headphones, and a mug with (presumably) some kind of caffeinated beverage. The floor-to-ceiling windows behind her reveal a beautiful skyline of high rises and even a few hanging plants. But you can also see a sliver of the moon, to which I say, get some better work-life balance, girl.  <\/p>\n
