Review

Spin (p.91) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Jeremy Greenspan of Junior Boys comes along to whisper keening New Romantic vocals here, with the twosome looking back to the techno future on 'Detroit,' and Geist emulating Giorgio Moroder soundtracks on the moody 'Skyblue Pink.'"
URB (Magazine) (p.84) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "DOUBLE NIGHT TIME unapologetically flaunts its electronic overcoat, and glam it should, given the remarkably clean sounds coming from Geist's boards."

Title Note

Jersey native and one-half of the production duo Metro Area, Morgan Geist wouldn't by any measure be considered a prolific artist. Arriving more than a decade on from his 1997 debut, THE DRIVING MEMOIRS, the Brooklyn-based producer's follow-up, DOUBLE NIGHT TIME, unveils a musical statement whose years of creative ferment have refined it to the elegance of a fine wine. A gorgeously crafted departure from the knotty drum programming and schizoid moods that marked Geist's debut, the album reveals a newfound ear for the lush, melancholic veneer of synth pop's New Romantics, structured like a travelogue dotted with impressions from various urban environs. Geist kicks off the set with "Detroit," an ode to his Motor City music influences. A sleek retrofit of techno's minor chord palpitations, zapping synths and elastic percussion accents slowly unfurls into a symphonic disco epiphany as Junior Boys vocalist Jeremy Greenspan sings with winsome nostalgia of optimism lost. The Greenspan association pays the greatest dividends on "Most of All," a bouncy slice of electro melancholia whose pert, upbeat melodies underlie a lyrical detour to Heartbreak City. Replete with the meticulously detailed production style that characterized his work with Metro Area, DOUBLE NIGHT TIME finds Geist going beyond typically superficial dance music tropes, revealing a gifted songwriter and arranger in the making.
