His nickname in high school was merely 'Zeit'
Q. Quickly answer without thinking: Who is one of the best dance/techno/weird disco music producers working today?
Hint: this person is not a member of the DFA.
A. Morgan Geist! One half of Metro Area, curator of the classic "Unclassics" italo disco compilation, head honcho of Environ Records. Now let me tell you something that's actually news-
In November, Environ will release the Kelley Polar Quartet's debut full-length on CD, entitled "Love Songs of the Hanging Gardens", 10 tracks, all new, mostly vocal based. Co-produced, along with Kelley Polar, by Morgan Geist himself. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, I dare you to listen to KPQ's 'Rhythm Touch' and not fall in love with it.

Nice, I didn't know BPB was releasing a live album. I personally am pretty jazzed right now for BoC's Campfire Headphase- nothing goes better with cool weather than their stuff.

not just a live album, a live *double* album.
seriously, at the risk of sounding too emo, i'm looking forward to sweaters & sad/good records--if for no other reason than that it'll be cool enough to go outside without instasweat(tm).
