Take note that Lofi Girl is an music label using their stream as main advertisement for their artists. They definitely have the rights for the respective tracks.

As a regular lofigirl listener, i wish youtube dies a painful death. Their claiming/strike system is bringing so much pain to content creators.

As for now, you can also listen on https://lofigirl.bandcamp.com.

Just a theory on what happened, but sampling is almost always not fair use (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(music)#Legal_and_eth...), and I see many indie labels publishing music with sampling in them. Regardless of your opinion here, it would make YouTube in the clear.

a brief look at a few random tracks on their bandcamp site doesn't show any sampling. if they have videos that use sampling, then those videos should be taken down, not the whole channel.

I wish I had a link for you but it’s a relatively common thing to have TV shows and movies sampled in lofi tracks. I’ve heard clips from anything between “Talladega Nights” to “10 Things I Hate About You”.

Thank you kind sir. Bandcamp is actually better because of memory usage, looping and other nicities YT wants you to get the app and/or pay for. But I can't find a way to live stream like with YT on there.

Do they have a live Peertube?
