Double LP version with free CD.
Black Beauty
is the second album from
Metope
for his co-founded Areal Records label. Much like its precursor,
Kobol
(AREAL 005CD), the album swoons between techno, minimal and house timbres as well as poignantly-colored melodies. Nestled amidst eerie dance moments such as "No Self-Control," "Deep Sheep" and "Alive," however, are these woozy, country-kissed ballads like "So Cutoff" and the riff-led "Rough Romance" that ply
Black Beauty
with blues and soul. Married with Metope's warped and wonky electronic vision -- epitomized by the album's serene slo-mo conclusion, "Blood River" --
Black Beauty
is a blissfully tender listen, while providing left-field DJs with plenty of weird and wonderful floor fodder to play with. The album features guest appearances from Areal artists
Sid LeRock
(aka
Pan/Tone
),
Undo
and
Stiggsen
as well as electro-blues guitarist and singer
K_Chico
.
