Metro Area are a Brooklyn -based dance music production team composed of Morgan Geist and Darshan Jesrani . 12 HISTORY Geist grew up in New Jersey, while Jesrani is from upstate New York. Both arrived at electronic music through their interest in rock music (progressive rock in Geist's case, Rush in Jesrani's), and had been producing music since the mid-90s. Before forming Metro Area, Geist attended Oberlin (where he founded his record label, Environ, in 1995) and was responsible for a number of highly regarded solo releases, while Jesrani began his music career as half of the groups Essa 3 and Acronym City. The two met through internet mailing lists in 1995 or 1996. After collaborating under the names "Sage." and "Phenom,"3 they began Metro Area in 1998, releasing four 12"s on Environ under that name between 1999 and 2001. Edits of six tracks from these releases later turned up on their 2002 self-titled album. Both Jesrani and Geist are DJs as well as producers. DISCOGRAPHY
