The Friday June 10th Nocturnal Rooftop 50 ne 11th st downtown miami Darshan Jesrani: Metro Area burst onto the scene in 1999 with their self-titled debut 12" featuring the cult smash "Atmosphrique." The brainchild of veteran producers Darshan Jesrani and Morgan Geist, Metro Area was born out of the duo's somewhat dichotomous love for both the old moods of R&B, disco and boogie and the more cutting-edge sound of innovative house and techno. Metro Area brings back the soulful experimentation of the early club classics, mixing live and electronic instruments. Simultaneously, the mood and minimalism of more recent dance music forms creep into the mix: Detroit's cold futurism, Chicago's abstract track-modes, and the warmth of New York and New Jersey's deep house. They've already dropped a collection of classics like "The Art of Hot," "Caught Up", "Orange Alert" and "Miura," and while prolificacy is not a dominant trait of this duo, Metro Area promise to continue rocking dance floors and theories of time and space. Be sure to wear your dancing shoes and keep your mind and ears open this Friday!
