Toronto – Metronomy is an electro dude from Brighton, England. He has been remixing a lot of stuff in recent years (including Kate Nash’s Foundation song) and recently released his second album off the Because Music Label called “Nights Out”. It is essentially an electro/funk party album and features a some songs that are destined for car commercials featuring cool 20 somethings having a good time while driving to a night club.

I have decided on a creative take on reviewing this album, which is basically my conversation on googletalk with Vik while listening to it.

1:13 pm me: hat metronomy single is good
1:14 pm Vik: i not listen. but shall
1:26 pm me: ok,im about to listen to the album
1:27 pm Vik: wots da name of da singleu were talkin bout?
1:30 pm me: 01 A Thing For Me (Breakbot’s B-LIVE Miami Mix)
1:44 pm me: this metronmy album is okay, nothing special, typical dancy shit
1:45 pm Vik: i can’t beleive i’m wasting precious company bandwidth download that album off itunes
1:49 pm me: haha, heartbreaker is a good tune though
1:50 pm me: yea good tuen
2:06 pm me: this metronomy album is aite
2:07 pm Vik: hahaha, you talked about this band link 10 times since this morning
2:08 pm me: im using this convo as the review for the album
2:22 pm Vik: yeah not feeling it, too many bleeps and bloops

3.5/5 (first listen)
