Pitto’s Sexvibe genoemd door Amerikaanse Pitchfork

Het Amerikaanse Pitchfork heeft in de maandelijkse soort van Top 10 van nieuwe techno-nummers, het nummer ‘Sexvibe’ van Nederlander Pitto in de schijnwerpers gezet.

Naast nummers van artiesten als Laurent Garnier, Dachshund en Thomas Schumacher staan er lovende woorden over het nummer, dat volgens de schrijver Philip Sherburne duidelijk laat zien dat er een uitbreiding gaande is in de Europese dancemuziek.

“It's a fine track in its own right, but what might be most intriguing about it is the indication that European dance music is expanding its palette and absorbing a wider range of influences than admitted by minimal's more teleological strains.”

Brent Roozendaal was in de rubriek ‘de 4 uitgekozen vragen van..’ ook al vol lof over Pitto. Dubbel in de gaten houden dus, deze naam!

Pitto: "Sexvibe" [Arearemote]
Amsterdam's Remote Area and Arearemote labels are best known for spindly, quietly jacking minimal house. (Kabale und Liebe and Daniel Sanchez' "Mumbling Yeah" is both their biggest hit so far, and the closest thing the labels have to an in-house style.) But while "Sexvibe", from newcomer Pitto, may be minimal by definition, it hardly sounds like the genre of the same name. Looping short phrases of drums, guitar and vocals, Pitto builds a throbbing mass of filtered disco loops reminiscent of the Mole's masticated samples. It's a fine track in its own right, but what might be most intriguing about it is the indication that European dance music is expanding its palette and absorbing a wider range of influences than admitted by minimal's more teleological strains. Between records like this, and Panorama appearances from artists like Hercules and Love Affair, you can feel a subtle (and welcome) shift.
