nokbient

nokbient is an Indianapolis-based electronic artist born August 27, 1995, working at the intersection of downtempo beats and video game nostalgia. Known for their lo-fi reinterpretations of gaming soundtracks, they blend ambient textures and hip-hop rhythms in collaborations like *Video Game LoFi: Yoshi* (2021) and *Video Game LoFi: Celeste* (2023), described as "rich ambient whorls and dusty instrumental hip-hop beats." Recent tracks like *Crossing Those Hills* (from Final Fantasy IX) and *Featherbed* showcase their signature style of chilled-out, game-inspired electronica.

Operating under the name Noel Keith, nokbient mixes acoustic and electronic instrumentation while maintaining a strong independent presence across streaming platforms. Their work frequently appears alongside collaborators like Lofi VGM, highlighting their focus on transforming iconic video game melodies into laidback, head-nodding compositions.
