Deze zaterdag viert hét cult-label onder de cult-labels, Bunker Records, haar 25jarige bestaan in de PIP te Den Haag . Vraag je je af wat Bunker is, dan krijg je een draai om je oren en sturen we je voor straf naar DJ Broadcast en Vice , voor een broodnodige bijspijker-cursus. Wij stampen onze ritalin fijn, likken aan wat postzegels uit het guldentijdperk, doen de lampen uit, de gordijnen dicht en richten onze ogen op de bureau-stroboscoop. Alles stroomt, alles moet kapot, wie is die nazidwerg die zich achter de kantoorplant verstopt, alles gaat kapot, alles [...]
Substantial. Has a bit of Jacques Greene vibe, RAC, and various others. Enjoy this classy dancefloor banger.

Currently mid UK tour Scroobius Pip has decided Halloween would not go by unmarked this year and has treated us with a remix to new single The Struggle - out today. The mix comes from Der Won and takes what is already, lyrically, a fairly dark song, and adds an atmospheric bass, a dancier beat and keeps lethargic yet worrying eerie ass accordion. Any song that includes the lyric "I'm Johnny Depp and I kill people" and who's video features a Salem witch hunt, a bearded man with bloody hands and people running around in [...]
In a crowded world of music blogs what are they key things that make the reader return for a second vieiwng? Well, there's a whole list of key attributes - many of which we've discussed in this ongoing weekly series that looks at the editors behind the blogs - but one of the major boosts is the musical knowledge of the blog's creator. If a blog is a commentary on music, then knowing your subject is absolutely essential if you want to be respected. Andy, from The Von Pip Musical Express , can be held up as great example [...]
![Scroobius Pip – Let Em Come [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3731110_lg.jpg)
Scroobius Pip is finally unleashing his solo album unto the world this Monday, much to my and many others delightfully elated facial expressions. Standard practice, the album will be getting a full review so hold tight for that. In the meantime he has just dropped another video, this time to track "Let Em Come" feat. Sage Francis & P.O.S . Unfortunately the people you see in the video are not actually those who have made the song, however word has it that each one is the sister of the rapper whose verse it is. Potentially [...]

Click here to view the embedded video. One of the five best songs ever written in music history; everyone here is just straight pimpin' it. Basically, Gladys Knight was never better and the Pips, well, jesus they're rocking blue velvet suits with fuchsia ruffled shirts and dropping dance moves like they're sleeping. This. Right here. Is the epitome of cool (that and Steve McQueen in Bullit ).
Came across this bit from the old Richard Pryor Show. And those are the original Pips too! (Thanks Josh ) Subscribe in a reader
L'une des plus belles chansons de rupture qui existe par l'une des "reines de la soul", moins connue il me semble en Europe qu'Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight , accompagnée par The Pips en 1973. "Neither One of Us" parle donc d'un couple qui n'arrive pas à se dire au revoir, alors que tout indique qu'ils ne s'aiment plus (le titre original est "Neither One of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye)") et fut l'un des gros succès de l'année 1973.

The Singer: Hailing from Atlanta, Gladys Knight fronted her brother and two cousins in the Pips from 1953 to the late '80s, though the best-known incarnation of the Pips recorded between 1967 and 1975...

So I heard that MSTRKRFT remix of Usher "love in this club." And it sounded good, but I felt like they just had a song they weren't gonna use on their new record and tossed the vocals over it. Needless to say everyone in the whole world loved it, and I figured I could do a little blend that sounded similar. So here you are. Shirtless Usher for Dirty Dave and Johnny Love's viewing pleasure haha. DJ Skeet Skeet - Love in This Blood (divshare) [...]
