What do you get when you combine a saxophone, a giant steel pipeline, and a little bit of funky magic? Armin Küpper’s viral sensation PIPELINEFUNK that’s what! This massive pipeline almost acts as a duet partner with it’s echo making it sound as if someone else is playing alongside him. With almost 4 million views, this is one of the coolest performances around!
When Küpper hits the first notes, something marvelous happens. The music comes back perfectly through the massive pipeline, creating this incredible harmony. He’s playing a duet with the pipeline itself! The pipeline reacts to his sax in a call and response and catches the groove oozing out of every note that his sax plays.
Let’s turn to the real highlight, Armin Küpper’s little dance moves. Continuing to bob along to the rhythm of the beat he began swaying his hips and tapping his foot like he was having the time of his life. So casual, so in sync with what he’s creating–makes you want to groove and sway your hips from side-to-side too! The smile you’ll see on his face is the cherry on top of this funky jam session. 
It’s even cooler because this whole performance takes place in the oddest place imaginable: A guy, his sax, and a massive pipeline in the middle of nature. Pure sound and a lot of heart; no fancy tricks, no edits.
PIPELINEFUNK is a nice reminder that something simple can be pure magic in a world of polished, studio-made music. If you haven’t checked out PIPELINEFUNK yet, do yourself a favor and watch it.
