Notes: DJ: Metro Area. Since 1999, New York-based production duo Metro Area (Morgan Geist and Darshan Jesrani) have been prime-movers of dance music's disco renaissance, debuting a series of singles that retraced the roots of house, back to the oft-overlooked disco and boogie of club music's earlier era. While MA's own nuanced productions demonstrate an affinity for a blending of the organic and the synthetic--coming across like modern-day retrofits of disco and R&B instrumentals--the duo's acclaimed DJ sets encompass a far broader swath of styles and sensibilities. FABRIC 43 is an hour-plus continuous-mix commissioned for the famed U.K.-based nightclub-cum-label, Fabric. Fearlessly mixing synth pop staples like Ministry and Heaven 17 with post-disco standard bearers such as Voyage and Gary's Gang, the set celebrates in dance music's shared resonances from bouncing synth bass lines, cascading toms, and persistent claps, to unabashedly cheesy melodies. Gleefully riding the thinnest of lines between respectful reverence and full-blown camp, FABRIC 43 flips the script on club music's overripe and all too carefully manicured notion of the DJ mix.
Clash (magazine) (p.104) - "Taking 1985 as a starting point, it's a glorious foray into squelchy analogue bass, disco claps, swirling synths and stomping beats..."
