Hippie Sabotage

Hippie Sabotage creates a sound that lives in the hazy intersection of a smoke-filled basement and a massive festival mainstage. Their music is defined by a signature blend of bluesy, reverb-drenched electric guitar riffs and heavy, slow-rolling trap percussion. It is music that feels both intimate and expansive, often utilizing vocal samples that have been stretched, pitched, and processed until they become ghostly textures rather than traditional melodies.

What truly distinguishes the duo is their ability to maintain a 'chill' aesthetic while delivering the sonic weight required for a sub-bass system. Unlike many of their EDM contemporaries who rely on aggressive builds and digital shrieks, the Saurer brothers lean into a more organic, psychedelic feel. The guitar work often feels improvisational and soulful, providing a human counterpoint to the rigid, clicking hi-hats and booming 808s that anchor their tracks.

For those new to the duo, their remix of Tove Lo's 'Habits' is the essential entry point for their pop-sensibility, but 'Devil Eyes' better represents their core identity. It is the perfect soundtrack for moments of transition: the drive home from the club, the slow descent of a sunset, or any time you want to feel like the protagonist in a moody, modern noir film.
