Morgan Geist – Super

lullaby...one of those rare tunes that makes your soul dance

If there is one word with which I were to describe this EP, it would be the word Record. This is a Record and awesome one at that.

Environ is proud to announce the reissue of Morgan Geist's cult favorite SUPER for April 22, 2016. Originally released in summer 2001, the record is an ode to NYC featuring strings from the Kelley Polar Quartet and plenty of disco DNA. It's no mystery that this was made by half of Metro Area, lingering in a mood halfway between "Caught Up" and "Miura." Remastered and cut by the award-winning Matt Colton of Alchemy Mastering.

24K and Lullaby on one disc? No wonder you gotta trade a baby for one.

Every time those synth stabs come through I lose my shit. Super is uber!

Every song on this EP is amazing and definately one of Morgan Geists most complete releases. 12 years on and still going strong!

Yes, Lullaby is the tune. This song captures the sound of beauty in innocence, a childlike naivity almost. And when the trumpet comes in, you can feel your soul being soooothed - Lullaby is the perfect title for this. I wish I could feel this way every time I was trying to sleep!

I first got turned on to Morgan Geist through his Metro Area releases, but "Super" is as good if not better than anything Geist has done with Darshan Jesrani. "24K" is an amazing track, but the real surprise for me on this release was the last track, "Lullaby." On most of Metro Area's songs, the live instruments blend in with the electronics, but "Lullaby" has a really prominent trumpet solo that evokes a black and white-era Manhattan—something along the lines of films like "Killer's Kiss" or "The Man With the Golden Arm"—at least that's what it reminds me of. Timeless and evocative.
