On their latest album Bobbie, Pip Blom traded indie-rock guitars for poppy synths. The Dutch band is venturing further in that direction with their new song "Ring" from their just-announced EP Grip.
When Pip Blom invited musicians to make remixes of their 2021 LP Welcome Break, the group was inspired by the sound. They explain:
I was sold straight away. I realized that there was a massive part of music that I had never really listened to that I might actually really like. I started thinking about the music that we made and if there would be a way to combine both worlds. We slowly started to incorporate more dance elements into our songs. It started subtle with Bobbie and now with this EP it has been a priority. I have really tried to keep it very Pip Blom; the main instruments are a little different, but the sounds, melodies and hooks are still very much us.
Grip is their first independent release after years on Heavenly. Check out "Ring" below.
