Here's a little about Morgan for those who don't know...

This New Jersey native was initially inspired by England's take on the sound of Detroit, but eventually tracked techno back to its Motor City innovators. When he began listening to music, however, it was the sound of early-'80s synth heroes like Devo, Severed Heads and New Order alongside early hip-hop, jazz and 60s Hindi film soundtracks.

Geist released his first 12" (via Dan Curtin's innovative Metamorphic label) while studying at Oberlin College in 1994. He formed Environ soon after, releasing powerful statements of purpose which showed his affinity for the more emotive strains of disco, techno, soul and all flavors in between. His debut album was released in 1997 and licensed to EastWest/Warner.

Geist continues to run Environ today. A highly-regarded remixer and producer both solo and as half of Metro Area, Geist has lent his touch to a wide range of artists including Hugh Masekela, Telex, Erlend Oye and The Rapture

And of course there's the music itself. This doesn't top the OG but it's the best flip of it:

Share The Night

Calling all italo fans! The boys of Bodyshine have finally blessed the world with a mix, which I now have the pleasure of sharing with you. Here's a little description from Jeffrey:

Better late than never. We finally put a mix together, I guess we're like real DJs now. Ha. So anyway this Saturday we will be giving away FREE copies of SHARE THE NIGHT, it will also be the LAST Bodyshine at KFN. Don't fret, the night will live on. Next month we're moving on to bigger better things! Feb 13th we're putting on the first(technically second) installment of Night Shift @ the Ox. Myself, Matt P, Kyle, Toney M + Guests will be throwing it down until the wee hours. A monthly warehouse gig is also in the works. So keep your eyes and ears open.

If you're in Philadelphia this Saturday & craving some deep grooves, be sure to check out the last Bodyshine at Kung Fu Necktie.
