Pitou - Devote (V2 Records)
Release Date: Out Now
The opening bars of this latest release from Pitou will surely stop even the most rabid beast in their tracks or we are all doomed. 'Devote' opens with breathy vocal harmonies joined by a simple, almost medieval plucked string melody which takes you back to a time before electricity, before distractions to a more simple and elemental life. A steady but slow beat nudges things along and the song does swell like a fire finally catching light but only briefly before the embers die down again and the darkness takes hold. Another stunning release from the Dutch artist at the top of her game.
