The long-awaited sequel to the Final Fantasy lofi tribute album “Chocobo & Chill” arrives. Crafted by master beatmaker Rifti, “Chocobo & Chill II” showcases 16 tracks of both nostalgic and contemporary entries into the Final Fantasy game series.

Rifti Beats is a lofi and hip-hop beat-maker and producer, known for his sensational remixes of anime and videogame themes. Following up 2022’s acclaimed “Chocobo & Chill”, Rifti returns with sixteen additional remixes from the Final Fantasy series, each lovingly interpreted with lo-fi nostalgia. “Chocobo & Chill II‘s” tracklist includes themes from the series’ earliest installments all the way through Final Fantasy XV. 

“Chocobo & Chill II” highlights music heard across the series (such as the main theme and victory fanfare), the Super Nintendo’s Final Fantasy IV and VI, Final Fantasy VII-IX for Playstation, Final Fantasy X and XI for Playstation 2, the massively popular MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, and Final Fantasy XV.

Here’s a statement from Rifti on “Chocobo & Chill II”:
“I think Nobuo Uematsu is one of the greatest composers of all time. Reinterpreting his melodies into my own versions and seeing how they resonate with Final Fantasy fans is the most fulfilling experience I’ve ever known!”
