Lipphead (production duo Blockhead and Eliot Lipp) return with a second block rocking single from their debut album 'In The Nude'.

The cheekily titled 'Don't Worry Be Horny' is a reference both to the vocal sample that introduces the track, and the prolific use of brass throughout this glorious clash of electro synths and classic funk stylings. These two producers specialize in creating playful instrumental hip-hop that traverses numerous musical territories. 

Illustrated by artist Maddison Chaffer - the titular Lipphead character is an integral feature of the project serving as the group’s mascot and as a tongue-in-cheek personification of the duo’s fused styles. This talented triumvirate of musicians and artist combine perfectly to connect with their audience via quirky, smile-inducing sonics and visuals that could engage even the most hard nosed folk.

In their own words Lipphead explains further:

"I would say, with this album in general, it was both of us taking things we were working on that we liked but couldn’t find a home for. For us this was a very "there are no rules" type venture. We allowed ourselves to be silly and unconventional with all these songs. "Don’t Worry Be Horny" was a tip of the hat to Bobby McFerrin and born out of a somewhat goofy vocal sample. Part of the goal was to take something and turn it into something else entirely."

- Blockhead

"My favorite thing about the record is the audio cocktail that comes together when our two styles are blended. It’s refreshing to make music with such a loose process. We found ourselves focusing on our strengths, and trusting that our individual styles would complement each other.”

- Eliot Lipp

Don't Worry Be Horny

Blockhead and Eliot Lipp return with the first single from their much-anticipated second LP as Lipphead. 'Midnight Brain to Georgia' is the first single taken from the record and serves up an infectious groove that sets the tone for the rest of the album: namely fun, with sounds equally danceable and experimental.

"From the Back" Arrives Digitally, on Vinyl, CD, and Cassette July 28th, 2023 on Young Heavy Souls.

My latest album titled Jazzy Orbit. A blend of old school jazzy vibes with some punchy drums.

Solar Orbit

Throughout my time consuming and creating music, I've become increasingly aware of the immense power in music and how it can instantly shape our moods and color our experiences. My intention with this album was to channel my affinity for the ocean in a way that was both calming and uplifting.

I love the ocean and the music that can take me there. In 2011 I released a surf rock album called Kitty Hawk Surf, and I've wanted to record another album that channels the coastal flavor ever since. This time around, the album took me in an unexpected direction and explored a more relaxing energy, incorporating notes of hawaiian lap steel and bossa nova.

I created this music because it makes me feel good, and I hope it will do the same for you.
