 | RA Review Morgan Geist could retire now and he'd still be considered one of electronic music's most respected figures. But judging by "Detroit," the first single from his forthcoming solo album, he's still got plenty more to offer.

| #14 / Mon, 15 Sep 08 13:48 So, the fact that the sheer 'prospect [!] of Craig and Geist together on one 12-inch [got] people buzzing' makes it 'a strong release for Environ'? However mediocre it may have turned out? I don't get it.

| #15 / Tue, 16 Sep 08 09:27 Vinyl release postponed to the end of month or later due to insufficient vinyl material of manufacturer...  Anyway this track sounds like remix or copy of 24K, which was released years ago (alongside Lullaby, which is on album too- in a little bit different version). Sorry Morgan, but to choose this as first single I'm curious about Carl Craig remixes.

Yes that's why I gave this a good review. I never listened to the record.
Hell I didn't even read my own review. What did I even say in there????
Oh you didn't read it either...ah well. Let's flip a coin and decide whether to buy the record or agree with the review based on who wins!

| #17 / Tue, 16 Sep 08 18:44 ronan have you heard 24K? i mean im a big fan of morgan geist but i think this is an insult. its the same track re-hashed. they can postpone the vinyl as long as they want cos i basically already have the original!

| #18 / Tue, 16 Sep 08 18:56 I am v interested to hear if it's a rehash now actually Bazz, not heard that tune. Seems to be the consensus.
I just took issue with somebody suggesting I'd say it was a great record simply because it was Geist/Craig, which I obviously didn't say!

| #19 / Tue, 16 Sep 08 19:27 I'va always loved 24k, but as far as I'm aware it never made that big a splash when it was released, did it?
Really glad to see it getting a reworking by two guys with roots in the more soulful side of house rather than some of the other members of the nu-disco crowd. Hopefuly a few more people will get to enjoy the delights of what is still a lovely original this time round. A worthwhile revisit.

| #24 / Sun, 28 Sep 08 07:12 yeah it is a bit strange really....
24k is an absolute classic i was surprised when it popped up in this track!
it was really annoying me for a few minutes trying to figure out what the 'sample' was
anyway i am a massive fan of geist hopefully he will release a 'new' 'miura' i will never get sick of that tune (i wish they would play it at xmas instead of 'fairytale of new york'!)
