Today marks ten years since NINETOFIVE® Recordings opened up shop.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to support so many talented producers across so many sub-genres of instrumental music. Their styles are all different, but I’ve always felt they go hand-in-hand. And to celebrate a full decade of NINETOFIVE, we’re releasing a compilation that celebrates the diversity of artists and instrumental genres we love here.

For all you vinyl collectors: we’re releasing a limited-edition double LP of the album in collaboration with our friends over at Qrates. We’re only making 200 physical copies, but the compilation will be on streaming, too. (Owning the album feels way cooler, though—so go grab a copy!)

Thinking back, it’s clear how much the beat-making scene has changed since the early Soundcloud days. There’s less super-heavy sidechaining and everyone’s a little better at mixing, but the real evolution is the community that’s formed around instrumental music. That wasn’t there when we started, and contributing to it has been such an honor.

Thank you to everyone who’s shown us support over the years, listened to our releases, read our articles, or become a fan of the beatmakers in our community. You’ve made NINETOFIVE what it is today. Here’s to our second decade!

Listen to 'Autu' by Brenky, the Dutch music producer known for creating uniquely minimal instrumentals with calming melody loops, which are well-loved by lofi enthusiasts. He now presents a new lofi lullaby. With more than 30 million streams across streaming platforms from his previous releases, Brenky's ability to create gentle and soothing beats is undeniable. 'Autu,' with its delicate retro synth notes, piano melody, and hip-hop beats, is undoubtedly the perfect lullaby for adults.

Melodramatic

Geometry fades as the city loses its shape, corners crumble into distant echoes, and lights flicker without purpose. Forgotten signs float in the air like unanswered questions, while rooms sigh with a longing unheard. Shadows freeze across rooftops, and fog hides the remnants of things once familiar. In this slow unraveling, time stutters, hearts echo in hollow chambers, and everything stops for a silent flicker before disappearing entirely.

Ghost Station

After Hours is a collaborative journey between Nexus and Lofi OldBoy, weaving together threads of ambient textures and dreamy lofi soundscapes. 🌙✨ The album drifts through hazy nights and quiet reflections, carrying listeners into a world where time slows down and every beat feels like a whisper.

Soft vinyl crackles, mellow chords, and distant echoes of the city blur into layered atmospheres, creating the perfect soundtrack for late-night studying, writing, or simply wandering through your own thoughts. With its mix of cosmic ambience and intimate lo-fi warmth, After Hours feels both infinite and deeply personal.
