It would be fair to say that Morgan Geist’s Megaprojects series is an attempt to go “back to basics”. Not only are the tracks created using – in his words – “cheap drum machines and vintage synths”, but also pay tribute to some of his earliest inspirations. In practice, that means doffing a cap to fluid and ear-pleasing early deep house on the glistening “Manic Cinq”, pitched-down Italo-disco and bass-heavy early British techno (“Fuzzy Detail”) and tactile, breakbeat-driven late ’80s house (the rather wonderful “Buy Freedom”). Arguably best of all, though, is closer “OCGC”, whose psychedelic acid lines, tactile synth bass and cheery synth melodies make the track sound like a cross between vintage Metro Area and Orbital’s “Halcyon”.
