Release Notes:
Named after the musical term for the measurement of time by an instrument,
Metronomy is the dance-meets-rock project of London-based multi-instrumentalist
and producer Joseph Mount. The live version of Metronomy also includes
keyboardist/saxophonist Oscar Cash and keyboardist/bassist Gabriel Stebbing.
Prior to Metronomy, Mount and Stebbing played together in bands such as the
Upsides, a pop group the pair described as "the original Busted," and the
Customers, with whom they played in university. Using an old computer that his
father gave him, Mount started Metronomy in 1990 as a side project to the other
bands he played with. When his cousin Cash joined Metronomy, it became the
trio's main project. With a sound inspired by everyone from Devo and David Bowie
to N.E.R.D. and Pavement, Metronomy earned buzz for their engaging live show as
well as official and unofficial remixes of tracks by Gorillaz, Architecture in
Helsinki, Sebastien Tellier, Kate Nash, U2, and Britney Spears. Metronomy's
debut single, "You Could Easily Have Me," arrived in spring 2005 on the
Holiphonic imprint; the full-length Pip Paine (Pay the ú5000 You Owe) was
released that summer. Metronomy switched to their own label Need Now Future for
their 2007 single "Radio Ladio." The following year, their second album Nights
Out arrived; it became their breakthrough album, introducing their eclectic
sound to a wider audience. In 2009, Stebbing left Metronomy to focus on his
other project, Your Twenties. Bassist Gbenga Adelekan and former Lightspeed
Champion drummer Anna Prior joined the fold for 2011's The English Riviera,
which boasted a sleeker sound than the band's previous work.
