It might be 23 years old, but Metro Area’s second eponymous EP still sounds as fresh, timeless and immaculately produced as it did at the turn of the Millennium. Here the three-tracker returns in freshly remastered form. The real standout is arguably near nine-minute A-side ‘The Art Of Hot’, a deliciously deep, sparse and glassy-eyed affair in which echoing strings (courtesy of Kelley Polar and chums), sustained chords and electronic pots-and-pans percussion rise above an undulating synth bassline and crispy disco drums. Elsewhere, ‘Machine Vibes’ is a more warming and melody-rich skip through deep nu-disco pastures featuring a rather lovely flute solo, and ‘Wafer’ is a bass guitar-propelled skip through spacey, house-not-house awesomeness.
