Superpitcher (and associated) Remix Poll

Heresy.

Hi Freaks Hi btw

So many melancholic masterpieces in this list. The only producer/remixer I continue to collect on vinyl. Have most of them but didn't even know about the most recent Tocotronic remix with Tobias Thomas! Always a killer combination - their arrangements have a way of complementing the weary/melancholic tone of von Lowtzow's vocals that somehow plugs straight into my nervous system.

Having to pick a favourite from "Perfect Lovers" (Unperfect Love Mix), "Krokus" (Superpitcher Remix), "(This Is) The Dream Of Evan And Chan" (Superpitcher Kompakt Remix), "Hi Freaks" (Superpitcher´s Beautiful Freaks Mix), "Nothing Is Written (Accidently Overdosed Remix By Tobias Thomas And Superpitcher)", "Wintermute" (Superpitcher Mix),"The Difference It Makes" (Superpitcher Mix), "Je Regrette Everything" (Superpitcher Remix), "Don't Save Us From The Flames" (Superpitcher Remix), "Along The Wire" (Superpitcher Mix), "The Operation" (Superpitcher Remix) is going to be hard. Sweet, but hard.

As mentioned earlier, some Supermayers are missing (LoSoul's "You Know", Gotye's "Heart's a Mess" and Rufus' "Tiergarten" esp., but also Geiger's "Good Evening", Ananda's "Doppelwhipper", Hot Chip's "One Pure Thought") but I'm happy with the focus on Aksel :)

i looked this up cos i thought it was superpitcher, but i was mistaken. still... this this is an absolute monster.

when i saw superpitcher at berghain in berlin last year, he slipped in lots of his own remixes (cheeky!) in between lots of non-obvious stuff, and ended with a flourish at 6 AM with his remix of tocotronic's 'pure vernunft darf niemals siegen'--it was kind of awesome to see hundreds of hardcore muscle marys totally freaking out to tocotronic in the berghain dancefloor, and flexing their huge arm muscles in time with the beat! meanwhile superpitcher was headbanging during that bit where the track spirals out of control and it just goes 'darf niemals siegen,' over and over again. i couldn't stop laughing. i wish i had taken a photo of this (sadly taking photos is verboten in berghain/panoramabar!)

so great

haha fantastic. the mental image is probably much better than any photo would have been :-)

kinda wish he'd do a mix again

"You Don't Need A Weatherman"

Why the hell did I set the deadline so late? I want results NOW!

Also, there was a point around 4-5 years ago when I looked exactly like Superpitcher. Sadly my face seems to have grown out of it.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

The Difference It Makes (Original Mix) >>> The Difference It Makes (Superpitcher Mix)

No love for Hi Freaks. Sadfreaks.

The Difference It Makes (Original Mix) >>> The Difference It Makes (Superpitcher Mix)

massively disagree.

and I like The MFA

can't believe the hell remix got no votes, but at the same time I didn't vote for it. (can't remember what i voted for)

I forgot to vote
That Hell remix is insane, when that bass comes in I'm always in awe

New Superpitcher is forthcoming! First 12" is out and it's gorgeous.

Second 12'' is out, and it's pretty great as well. But this is gonna be a loooong album.
