MODESELEKTION VOL.1

For the past 2 years, while Modeselektor didn't show much activity, Gernot and Szary along with Sascha Ring aka Apparat created the electronic super group Moderat. The debut album set new sales records for all involved. There was hardly any big and relevant festival worldwide in 2009 and 2010 without Moderat on the bill. Due to impressive live shows and the brilliant album on Bpitch Control, Moderat was voted in many annual music magazine readers polls 2009 as best Live Act, Best Album and/or Best Group. After the festival season 2010 ends it's time to show a sign of life as Modeselektor. So it happens impressively with the kick start of a new album series called Modeselektions. Accompanied by carefully selected events around the globe Modeselektor invited 20 of their current favourite electronic music artists to participate with unreleased and exclusive tracks, of which 18 are to be found on this cd. Names like 2562 (A Made Up Sound), Robag Wruhme (Wighnomy Brothers), Marcel Dettmann, Shed, Mala (Digital Mystikz), Tadd Mulinix (Dabrye, James T. Cotton), Feadz, Siriusmo, Apparat, Ramadanman, Ikonika, Cylob and many more sound impressive not only to hippsters and specialists, DJs and journalists, but also to the ˜normal™ fan of electronic music. The project is going to be released in various different formats between end of September until mid December. 3 separate 12inch releases, an ultra limited and numbered clear vinyl 2xLP, the CD as well as multiple different download formats will present the music in which ever context you like. Watch out for special editions, exclusive bonus tracks and Modeselektion merchandise. A series of teaser videos will guide you along the release dates of all formats.
