“Northern Lights” by Skimo is a captivating journey into lo-fi hip-hop, blending the tranquility of chill-hop with delicate instrumental layers. The track feels like a late-night drive through a quiet city, with mellow beats and smooth transitions that create a sense of calm. It’s the lead single from Skimo’s recent EP, and it embodies the kind of atmospheric charm that pulls you in, making it perfect for study sessions or introspective moments. The gentle rhythm, punctuated by soft jazz-hop influences, ensures that “Northern Lights” stands out in today’s instrumental hip-hop scene.

Skimo, an independent artist, crafts his music with precision, drawing inspiration from a range of genres like house, UK garage, and electronica. While “Northern Lights” showcases his lo-fi side, his broader sound palette is eclectic, blending elements of electronic pioneers like Leftfield and the Chemical Brothers. His self-taught approach adds a raw yet refined edge to his work, and with a debut album on the horizon, Skimo is poised to carve out his space in the music world.
