Blue Pilot, an experimental duo who blend pop and psychedelia, have dropped a new single that’s nothing short of a trip. Inspired by a wild night at Brooklyn’s House of Yes, “Dripping!” fuses the chaos of club energy with unexpected sonic twists, resulting in a listening experience that’s equally mind-bending and groovy. Known for their eclectic influences and genre-bending approach, Blue Pilot deliver their first single with a sample from their friend, Olive, adding an extra layer of depth and uniqueness to the track.
On “Dripping!,” Blue Pilot captures a frenetic club energy that feels both joyful and disorienting. The track gives listeners a taste of the duo’s eclectic style, pushing sonic boundaries while staying accessible. The writing and recording of “Dripping!” was a collaborative process between members Eric Steininger-Frost and Chris Worden, combining long-distance exchanges with obsessive in-person studio sessions.
I think all artists occasionally suffer from an inferiority complex, and when you see someone further along in the journey, it can be discouraging. The idea behind the line, “you can be the artist,” comes from that escapist mindset that I sometimes feel. This song makes me feel like an insane person – hopefully people love feeling insane as well. – Eric Steininger-Frost
