Come for the beats. If you stay? Well, you’ll be staying for the beats, too.



This duo continue to astound. dan le sac can claim to be one of the better beatmakers ever. He delivers stadium sized crunch but still finds majesty in the miniscule. Scroobius Pip's whole style, on the other hand, is a rejection of any aesthetic. He's bad. In his better moments he's so-bad-he's-not-quite-so-bad. Repent Replenish Repeat is the pair's apogee. On Stunner, le sac creates a monster only for Pip's delivery to be over-slow and repetitive. Gold Teeth is a lecture on consumerism from a man with a sleeve tattoo. Come for the beats. If you stay? Well, you'll be staying for the beats, too.
