Live At Robert Johnson is a natural home for Superpitcher, and this two-tracker shows his sense of belonging. Lush Life, with vocals by Fantastic Twins, was inspired by Corsican polyphony, an epiphany after a church concert. As ever with Superpitcher the simplicity is multi-layered: the track could be a trip back to the golden rave days of deep US electronic house in the vein of François K, dubby yet peacefully driving the ecstasy home. There is no religious gospel euphoria here, though. The lyrics are a pagan hymn to Eventide presets, and you can’t take the geek out of the schatzi.
Diario stretches across ten minutes in a misleadingly laid-back groove, its languid Sueño Latino clichés blown away by a smoothly unforgiving acid line. This is a trip, not a journey, dedicated to the young raver in all of us and to a friend too soon departed. In other words, kids, keep faith out there.
