As Los Amigos Invisibles grew their musical profile outside of Latin America, the all-covers album SUPERPOP VENEZUELA worked as an endearing love letter to the local pop music of the band's youth. Produced in collaboration with French dance-pop star Dimitri From Paris (who serves in part as a cultural ambassador for North American and European audiences unfamiliar with the original versions of the songs), Los Amigos Invisibles pick favorites from the late 1970s and early '80s, originally performed by more traditional Venezuelan pop stars like Jose Luis Rodriguez but reinterpreted in the group's electronic dance-pop sound. The results are utterly charming. minimize
