Album Notes & Community Reviews

Pioneering synthesist Larry Fast continued to explore the limits of electronic orchestration on his eighth studio project under this moniker. 'Metropolitan Suite' embraces the newly emerging MIDI technology of the era to construct crisp, digital soundscapes evoking modernist urban architecture. The album transitions away from his earlier analog warmth into a highly sequenced, futuristic aesthetic.
