Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!

This week Pip is joined by Hardcore Listing homie and long term real life homie CHRIS GLASSON, and podcast producer / DJ / beatmaker BUDDY PEACE for the first in a 3 part series of celebration episodes!

To be exact, a celebration of 20 years of Scroobius Pip, dating back to the first musical output and initial starting point in the entire journey. This goes back to those very first days, the days of Myspace and the four track limit (makes you feel nostalgic doesn't it...), the street art world, making music on a four track recorder and the lo-fi home studio setups, Björk and Sage Francis as early influences - and speaking of influences - the spoken word scene and pals made around that, early touring including the performances outside gig queues, booze as a prop, and all sorts of fun lil' Easter eggs and such. The cliff-hanger is a goody too... Enjoy!

This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with Wim Hof, originally episode 136 from 2017-02-08.

Original writeup below:

Don't get all wrapped and warm for this one - it's going to get incredibly frosty up in here... Chances are you may not already have made Wim's acquaintance - that's fine, for after this podcast you will most likely be digging around online and listening to his glorious cadence for hours to follow... If you have already broken the ice (skate over that pun) (and that one) with the man, you will surely be up to speed on The Wim Hof Technique, his apparently superhuman abilities to withstand cold, his infectiously positive and inspiring tones and talking points and his many accomplishments in the field of human endurance. Either way, this is a brilliant conversation (recorded from Wim's home in the outskirts of Amsterdam) which goes into everything you might want to know about the intriguing fellow himself.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!

This week Pip is joined by Mystery Jets OG BLAINE HARRISON!

Mystery Jets are a total indie band sureshot, who are currently in the 20th anniversary year of their debut 'Making Dens' debut. They've been total crowdpleasers since the first days, rocking any venue they've graced (including Banquet Records to name one, who get flowers in perpetuity). Back then it was a VERY different time, and a near-unrecognizable media terrain in which many bands were assigned a persona, or vibe, or aura by the music press. The Jets were not immune to this and were often saddled with this and that from various publications, but thankfully forged ahead, and always retained pure love from their fanbase. Pip catches up with original member Blaine, who is such an easy breezy chat subject and has his own questions here and there too (Jets and Pip share 20th anniversary celebrations this year!). It was a really vibrant era back in 2006, but it's so valuable to see a successful band who are still rocking it with no loss of passion or ambition. A really fascinating episode which, as always, will appeal whether you're a Jets-head or you've never heard of 'em. ENJOY!
