lo-fi
Lo-fi is an aesthetic in music production which uses low fidelity recording practices. Its use is usually due to the artist's financial limitations. Many lo-fi artists use inexpensive cassette tape recorders for their music. The term was coined by WFMU DJ William Berger who dedicated a half hour segment of his program to home record music throughout the late '80s under the name Lo-fi....

As a term to describe a musical genre, lo-fi is mainly associated with recordings from the 1980s onwards, when cassette technology such as Tascam's four-track Portastudio became widely available. Prime early exponents included Daniel Johnston, New Zealand bands such as the Tall Dwarfs, who recorded on Chris Knox's 4-track and released on Flying Nun Records, and Beat Happening and the Olympia, Washington label K Records. In the early-mid 1990s, Lo-fi found a wider audience with the success of such acts as The Apples in Stereo, Beck, Sebadoh, Guided By Voices, Pavement, Liz Phair, Will Oldham, Smog, Yo La Tengo, David Kilgour (musician) and (later) Elliott Smith.
Often lo-fi artists will record on old or poor recording equipment, ostensibly out of financial necessity but also due to the unique aural association such technologies have with "authenticity", an association created in listeners by exposure to years of demo, bootleg, and field recordings, as well as to older pop studio recordings produced more simply. The growth in lo-fi coincided with the growth of extreme slickness and polish associated with the multitrack pop recording techniques of the 1980s.
Many artists associated with the lo-fi movement, such as Bill Callahan, or Bob Log III, have frequently rejected the use of finer recording equipment, trying to keep their sound raw instead, whereas others such as Guided by Voices and The Mountain Goats slowly moved to using professional studios.
Many new acts are bringing lo-fi production back in to use. These bands are often grouped under the genre "noise pop", these bands include No Age, Wavves, Crystal Stilts, Titus Andronicus and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart.
The black metal genre embraced the lo-fi idea during the late 1980s and early 1990s as it strived to distance itself from pop music. Most bands recorded their albums on extremely low budgets, using four-track recorders and any other equipment they could use. The greatest example is the Darkthrone album Transilvanian Hunger.
Early Industrial music was typically lo fi by nature. To create a raw 'industrial' sound.
Anti-Folk is also a notable genre to use lo fi.
The 2010s gave rise to a scene within the house genre where artists created recordings with lo-fi aesthetics, imitating the sound of late-80s and early-90s house music and adding contemporary styles. Notable artists include Mall Grab, Florian Kupfer, Ross From Friends and DJ Seinfeld.

Skinny Love
Bon Iver Lyrics
Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer
I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in this moment this order's tall
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And in the morning I'll be with you
But it will be a different kind
And I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines
Come on skinny love, what happened here?
Suckle on the hope in light brassieres
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split
And I told you to be patient
And I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind
And now all your love is wasted
And then who the hell was I?
And I'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines
Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?
Ooh, ooh
Woo, ohh ooh

Amor Frágil
Vamos amor frágil, apenas dure este ano
Coloque um pouco de sal por que nunca estivemos aqui
Meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu...
Encarando a fossa de sangue e o compensado esmagado
Eu digo ao meu amor para deixar tudo ruir
Corte todas as cordas e deixe-me cair
Meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu...
Bem nesse momento essa decisão é difícil
E eu te disse para ser paciente
E eu te disse pra ficar bem
E eu te disse para ser ponderada
E eu te disse para ser gentil
De manhã eu estarei com você
Mas será de um jeito diferente
E eu estarei segurando todos os bilhetes
E você estará assumindo todas as punições
Vamos, amor frágil, o quê aconteceu aqui?
Se amamente de esperança em suaves sutiãs
Meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu, meu...
A carga intratável está cheia; então diminua a rachadura
E eu te disse para ser paciente
E eu te disse pra ficar bem
E eu te disse para ser ponderada
E eu te disse para ser gentil
E agora todo seu amor foi desperdiçado?
E então quem diabos fui eu?
E agora eu estou me despedaçando
E ao final de todas as suas linhas
Quem amará você?
Quem lutará?
Quem cairá para trás?

I think he’s more thinking like when you have everything and need nothing but get SO MUCH ENJOYMENT and pleasure from the simplest things in life on “nice summer day like enjoying nice weather heading kids playing and birds chirping and with no demons after you trying to take your head off (lol)s …

Birdy’s cover has that sound and vibe that is like you and your ex have been broken up for a long period of time. You’ve both had time to grow and move on from each other. You’re finding forgiveness within yourself and the relationship.
But Bon Iver’s original...man, this is what it sounds like immediately after the breakup. You’re angry. You’re sad. You’re accusing. You wanted it to work, but it ended ugly. You want to know what, why, and how. You’re trying to forget them, but the memories won’t leave.
The original has this emotion that no cover can ever capture. The original is truly what Justin Vernon was feeling in the time of a breakup. It’s a sound when songwriting that nobody can replicate unless they’re truly feeling it in that exact moment. That’s what makes this version truly beautiful.
