The Galleria: “Calling Card”

Metro Area’s Morgan Geist is back with a new project called The Galleria, featuring Canadian R&B singer Jessy Lanza, whose debut album “Pull My Hair Back” on Hyperdub was one of our favorite records of 2013. The debut release, “Calling Card/Mezzanine”, is said to “ripples with echoes of the indigenous music of long-dead suburban New Jersey shopping malls and NYC radio stations: bombastic freestyle, club dubs, razor-edits and bubblegum-pop R&B.” It features two original tracks with Jessy Lanza on vocal duties, each backed by a dancefloor-friendly ’80s-style dub version. Colour us excited!

The Galleria’s “Calling Card/Mezzanine” EP is out now digitally via Morgan Geist’s Environ Records imprint. Get it here.
