Hippie House

House Music Friday takes you to the place we don't always like to talk about...



Now, I would guess most people wouldn't associate House music with dirty hippies, but there are House Hippies out there... and they're actually pretty easy to spot. Basically any party, music group or (best) "collective" that has the word "Tribe" in their name = dirty hippies. Full moon parties = dirty hippies. Didgeridoos & Nitrous tanks = dirty, dirty hippies. Were talking bonfires, bongos and birkenstocks. And there were no more popular makers of Hippie House than Dubtribe Sound System. Notice the word "Tribe" in there? Not a coincidence, folks. Hell, the two members of the group went by the names Sunshine and Moonbeam, for fuck sake. But, unlike your garden-variety hippies with their jam bands, House Hippies actually listen to good music... because Dubtribe, for one, were pretty awesome...

Dubtribe Sound System - Nothing Is Impossible (ysi)




As you might have guessed, I have attended such events in the past. And I've come to terms with it, so back off... :P

Have a fantastic weekend!

Dubtribe is absolutely amazing! I want more friends that 'get' their vibe and their kind of house. Sign me up for dirty hippie club.
