In the gutter lie sun dried leaves, scraps of paper, burnt matches and cigarette butts. It is early morning; the sun rises with warm grace. you've come to the right party... you see, the body of a young man sitting by a pool, nobody important, really. Just a movie writer with a couple of "b" pictures to his credit. He always wanted a pool. Well, in the end he got himself a pool, but let's go back some time and find the day when it all started in "Hollywood," the place where they pay a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. Three years after he celebrated Sketch of Japan EP (2019), Superpitcher returns to Mule Musiq, bringing an epic super-pitched 40 minutes trip named Hollywood, that perfectly works as the score for the above remixed opening scene of a famous movie on the trances of Hollywood, the cage, that catch our dreams. It's a slow grower, incorporating some of core elements of the city of celluloid dreams: action, drama, romance -- all epic noir and yet so flooded by light. As ever the producer and DJ from Paris garnished his long building up and going down voyage with seducing melodies, glamorous pop, and psychic rhythms, creating the hippy dance ambiences he is famed for. Even though the twelve inch comes in accustomed a/b chapters, Hollywood should be perceived in one go to feel the depth of Superpitcher's tropical leaning story arc, that stretches the idea of a track into a dream of satin teardrops on flickering velvet lights. It paints sonic celluloid pictures of ghostly creatures, while a female/male voice is the music's constant melodic companion, injection Janus-faced longing dream pop spheres on the overall tripping house melancholy. A heroic electronic drama, elegant as Tamara de Lempicka's painting. It asks for endless rides on the Hollywood freeways. in the back the sun -- a big orange ball -- sinking slowly below the horizon. You've come to the right party... you see, the body of a young man sitting by a pool, in the back a long, graceful bar, bathed in soft light, filled with elegant customers. There's nothing else, just us and the music and those wonderful people out there in the dark, ready for a divine dance in closeup.
