imaginary trip sounds

Da junção de esforços de Apparat e do duo Modeselektor, nasce o projecto Moderat que vem de uma das mais inovadoras capitais das electrónicas, Berlim. Às melodias de Apparat, junta-se o som mais cru dos Modeselektor, resultando numa electrónica que pode variar entre sons electro-pop, techno suave e dub. Este caldeirão de sonoridades constrói um álbum que faz lembrar a colaboração de Ellen Allien com Apparat em Orchestra of bubbles. É um álbum recomendado que tanto dá para dançar como para ouvir no sofá. Um álbum para quem gosta de electrónicas de qualidade. Mais uma coisinha daqui:

"Moderat’s formation began back in 2002 when Sascha Ring (aka Apparat) and Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary (aka Modeselektor) recorded an EP for the record label BPitch Control. The making of this release was incredibly exhausting for the three of them, and at the last minute they renamed the EP “Auf Kosten der Gesundheit” (which translates to “At The Cost Of Health”). When it came time to begin working on an album, Moderat suddenly broke up.

It was a twist of fate that brought about Modeselektor and Apparat’s reunion in the spring of 2008. Szary and Bronsert, both proud fathers, were on their way to the “Stadtbad Mitte” with their children for their regular Monday swimming lessons when they ran into Ring, a devout bachelor who happened to be accompanied by several dubious females. After a battering of verbal abuse, the three gentlemen quickly made peace and decided to get back to work on their collaborative album post haste. Thus, Moderat was reformed."
