        "Proton Candy" probably is my favorite track of the Metro Area series. Love the way how it's deep, teasing, pleasing and funny all at the same time. It has just so much magic in it. A truly unique and timeless tune.

              The Metro Area releases are timeless! This EP is a must have, both tracks are excellent, especially "Proton Candy" on the B side.Try to put it even with Deep-House, Electro or with solid Italo Disco releases, the result is still the same...Pitched up or pitched down, you'll imediately call it Masterpiece! Essential tunes, not to be missed.

                With Metro Area's releases prior to this one getting better and better, expectaions for MA5 were high. Unfortunately, this release (for me) failed to live up to them. Typical clean, percussive Metro Area production including many of their trade mark sounds was not enough to compensate for the fact that these tunes (both of them) do not really hold any meaning - they fail to move emotionally. This has been the case with some tunes on their previous releases, but there has always been one tune that redeemed their releases before. A bit disappointing, but hopes run high for MA6.
