The monkey on the cover says it all. Compared to the rather cute and peaceful cover of Modeselektion Vol. 01, this time it's all a bit different. The music on Modeselektion Vol. 02 explores darker, more experimental grounds, certainly still with one eye focused on the trademark Modeselektor party-factor.
Featuring unreleased exclusive tracks by Monolake, Prefuse 73, Mouse on Mars, Clark, Lazer Sword, Martyn, Siriusmo, Addison Groove, Egyptrixx, Anstam, Diamond Version (a new project by raster-noton's Byetone and Alva Noto), Phon.o, Bambounou and many more, Modeselektion Vol. 02 once again unites some of the best names of the electronic music scene.
Modeselektion Vol. 02 will be released as a 3xLP, CD and Download Version July 2nd. As an introduction to the project there will be a 12inch single featuring tracks by Modeselektor and Martyn released on June 1st. The record release party will be held at Rex Club in Paris (France) on 29 June featuring Addison Groove (live), Anstam (live), Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team and Lazer Sword (live).
