CHILLONIA: The Slowest Beats, the Chillest Vibes

Deep in the sun-soaked heart of Corfu, where the Mediterranean breeze sways olive trees and the sunsets melt into the sea, there’s a house unlike any other. It’s not just a home; it’s a studio—a creative sanctuary for CHILLONIA, the world’s most laid-back musical collective.

Comprised entirely of turtles (yes, actual turtles, but don’t let that slow you down), CHILLONIA is a group of shell-clad artists who’ve mastered the art of producing impossibly smooth beats. Their genre? Think LoFi meets old-school hip-hop, sprinkled with ambient vibes so serene you might mistake them for a summer breeze.

Legend has it the turtles stumbled upon Corfu during a “lost-at-sea jam session” gone wrong, but they stayed for the vibe—and the olives. Their cozy studio overlooks the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea, equipped with keyboards, guitars, turntables, and the occasional bowl of lettuce (hey, creative fuel is important).

Each member brings their own charm to the collective:

• Kūrma, the headphone-wearing genius at the controls, keeps the beats flowing as steady as the tide.

• Tartaruga, the multi-talented string master, lays down melodies smoother than freshly churned tzatziki on his guitar and handles bass duties with grooves so deep they might just echo across the Ionian Sea.

• ḫsp, the virtuoso of the collective, can play anything with keys—Fender Rhodes, Wurlitzer, upright piano, you name it. Known for his ability to effortlessly switch between soulful riffs and jazzy runs, Calypso is the heartbeat of CHILLONIA’s signature sound.

Together, they create music that feels like sunshine on your face, with tracks so chill they might just lower your heart rate. Their motto? ‘Life in the slow lane’

CHILLONIA’s unique style has garnered fans from across the globe, proving that you don’t need to move fast to make waves. So, whether you’re lounging on a beach or trying to keep your houseplants alive, pop on a CHILLONIA track and let these Mediterranean maestros transport you to a world where life’s a little slower—and a lot groovier.
