Morgan Geist - Ruthless city


Ingetogen, prachtig melodieus nummer voor een man die thuis is in Detroit techno. Zijn nieuwe album heet: Double night time. Veel, erg veel handclaps en synths van deze veelzijdige muzikant uit Brooklyn. Disco is helemaal terug.

Morgan: "Kids think they like or understand disco, or "electro" or whatever they are calling it, but it's actually their own perception of what disco is, not actually what disco is, or was. It's akin to me telling my 13-year-old sister that techno was created by black people in Detroit and her laughing, thinking I was making a joke. It wasn't a joke! But her perception of techno was formed by totally different cultural cues." source: Beta Blog.
