lo-fi artists, here's a pro-tip: record your music in bathrooms.

that perfect lo-fidelity but high-quality tone can be achieved if you record in a bathroom. something about the construction of the room envelops the sound in a perfect haze. i believe some of john darnielle's early cassette recordings might have been done in bathrooms, simply based on the similarities of sound.

that's my advice for you. go at it!
