Touch Sensitive put out "Pizza Guy" in 2013 as a double A-side with "Show Me", and the Australian producer has explained that the whole track hangs on one idea: a little ostinato melody that loops and loops while the bass line wanders around underneath. The synth playing that figure lets each note ring out long, so the ear hears chords that aren't really there. The songwriting credit goes to Michael Di Francesco and Flume.
Backseat Mafia heard pulsing analogue synths over chords that stay put like a carpet, a big helping of classic '80s electro, a warm, bubbling bass line and a funk streak with a hint of Prince, topped off with choice vocal cut-ups. A video followed in May 2013, and the track got a UK release in July 2015.
