Finnish lo-fi hip-hop producer Tomppabeats crafts diverse, primarily loop-based beats that he compiles into sprawling albums. • After cultivating an early fanbase on Vine, the Helsinki native benefitted from placements on lo-fi, chillhop and jazzhop playlists on streaming platforms. • Tomppabeats has dismissed labeling his beats into any specific genre. “I don’t really have a ‘genre’ I identify with,” he told HypeBeast in 2020. • Amid his Vine success, Tomppabeats released Tyttö on cassette in late 2015. • Tomppabeats’ Discography 2016—released during its titular year—includes live ukulele, piano and guitar. • He’s cited late Japanese lo-fi producer Nujabes as a main influence.
