Chillhop Essentials Winter 2025
It’s that time again. Hoodies aren’t cutting it anymore, the sun’s clocking out early, and the trees are looking extra nude. Autumn fled the scene, and now it’s time for endless mugs of coffee and an unspoken agreement to cancel more plans than you keep. Welcome to Winter.
The world may be cooling down, but if you press play on Essentials Winter 2025, your speakers might start warming up a little. 28 tracks from 37 producers across the globe help us to close out the year with everything from frostbitten lo-fi loops to jazzy slow burns and head-nodders that make the cold feel a little less offensive.
This seasonal compilation has been a thing since 2016. Some of you have been around since those early days, and that's incredible that you've turned in for 40 of these curated compilations. For the newcomers, consider this your official invite to slow down, stay in, and sink into something that doesn’t demand too much from you.
Whether you’re journaling by candlelight (analog vibes), spending way too many hours trying to beat a level on your favorite game, or just letting your brain float in the background while the weather does its thing, these beats were made to keep you company. So throw on the heavy coat, light a fire (real or metaphorical), and maybe, just maybe, start working on those New Year’s resolutions. 2026 is coming. These tracks got you covered.
