Attention: it's officially time to switch from a hoodie to a heavy coat. The sunglasses and flip flops remain in storage and all of the autumn leaves have fallen, for it is time for fireside conversations, buckets of hot coffee, and much-needed hibernation. It is time for Essentials Winter 2025. The world may be cooling down, but if you press play, your speakers will start warming up.

Our long-running seasonal series provides end-of-the-year chill with its Winter edition, continuing the tradition we kicked off all the way back in 2016. Shout-out to the real ones who have been with us since the beginning. Say farewell to Fall’s golden glow, and welcome the cozy stillness of Winter, a season made for blankets, deep thoughts, and deeper bass lines.

Let this new compilation be your space heater: 28 instrumental tracks crafted by 37 producers from around the globe. From frostbitten lo-fi loops to jazzy slow-burns and head-nodding vibes. Everything you need to soundtrack the coldest months on this planet. Whether you're journaling by candlelight (analog vibes!), watching snow fall from the window (chill, bro), or just letting your mind wander in the quiet, these beats were made to keep you company.

So settle in and start working on those New Year's resolutions. It'll be 2026 in no time.

Paul SG - Unnoteworthy

Smote - My Mind

Smote - Affection

Smote - Chase The Sun

Mitekiss returns with “Fire + Fume”, a haunting, soulful cut featuring Sofia Gunnarsson on vocals and live strings that bring the track’s smoky tension to life. It’s a meditation on sensitivity, reflection, and the space that lingers after the fire burns out. Mitekiss continues to shape the more human, cinematic side of the genre.

Fire + Fume
