LUIGI MASI : Strobelight

We’ve got to admit we had a little titter at this when it arrived in our inbox just this afternoon, ’cause we’d been reading the scathing review of the same single on POPJUSTICE not 24 hours ago. So who IS Luigi Masi? Born to an Italian father and a Danish mother in Brazil and growing up in the UK, he recently supported both Girls Aloud and Sugababes on their UK tours. His debut Aussie single ‘Strobelight’ is produced by ‘Timbaland’s right hand man Jim Beanz’, who’s worked with the likes of Britney, JT, Timbaland and Shakira and will pOp into stores on Saturday October 25, followed by his debut album in 2009. The clip looks like it cost a pretty penny to put together and while Luigi’s certainly no Sam Sparro (that much is true), we can’t help but think Popjustice was being a little harsh in their criticism – it’s pOp after all…
