No introduction is necessary for the pop alter ego of Sasu Ripatti (also known as Vladislav Delay). “Convivial,” his fourth album using this name, reveals his more extroverted side. It is full of vocal collaborations, including those with Sascha Ring (Apparat) and Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters). This is a marvellous opportunity to enjoy the finishes and sound of an artist who has reinvented house, R&B, pop and every other genre that has come his way. One of a kind.
