As a pop group, Metronomy that are more Four Tet than Fab Four, though with a sense of adventure that would ve made the Fabs proud. Their outing under the Late Night Tales banner journeys through the inspirations of the bands ever moving sound - Along with a few surprises. Mounts old favourite Autechre is present and correct, but then so are Kate and Anna McGrrigle and the Sun Ra of hip hop Sa-Ra Creative Partners. Joining Sa-Ra on the hip hop front, we've got Tweet s ace Drunk from her Hummingbird album alongside OutKast - Prototype , spiced with some Doctor Octagon. For pure pop, they don t come more refined than Alan Parson s Eye in The Sky , who is buffeted by outbreaks of the unsettling weirdness, among them the sadly departed Mick Karn s supple bass figurines on Weather The Windmill or Tonto s expanding Head Band the guys that brought the funk to synthesizers with Stevie Wonder and Cybernaut . Then, just when you think you ve got it figured, Pete Drake arrives with his 1964 pedal steel novelty hit Forever . This is a maze rather than a journey. Naturally enough, there is the Late Night Tales special with a sparkling Metronomy rendition of Jean-Michel Jarre s Hypnose.
