Step into the captivating world of METROLAND
as they unveil their latest sonic masterpiece, "Forum". This Belgian
electro-pop duo, comprising Passenger A and Passenger S, has seamlessly
connected their acclaimed "0" album with the highly anticipated "Forum",
using the riveting EP "Industry" as a conceptual bridge.
In this
sonic adventure, METROLAND invites you on a journey exploring the
crossroads of innovation and nostalgia. "Industry" serves as a
tantalizing glimpse into the duo's conceptual boundaries, setting the
stage for the grand narrative of "Forum".
"Forum" originated from
unfinished business in METROLAND's electronic music brewery. Initially
conceived as a possible final single for "0" in 2023, it evolved into a
brand new concept and a complete album, playfully nodding to its
predecessor. Inspired by the World Economic Forum in Davos, "Forum"
delves into fresh sounds and experimental song structures. The album
showcases METROLAND's melodic side with tracks like "Happy nothing",
"The great reset" and "Infotainment," while electro-infused pieces like
"Activity as a timetrigger", "Baukultur", and "Quantum" continue the
trajectory initiated by "Industry."
A hymn to the industrial
revolution of the 21st century, "Industry" presents versions 5.0 and 6.0
in the download, while the physical CD album seamlessly weaves all six
industrial revolutions into an epic 10-minute experience (exclusive for
the CD edition).
Immerse yourself in the vintage electronic prowess
of METROLAND, and let the sonic odyssey of "Forum" unfold, revealing a
world of musical possibilities, for another electrifying conceptual
journey recommended to all fans of the Düsseldorf synth style…
