VARIOUS – DJ Kicks: Modeselektor – CD [SEP 12]

CD

Modeselektor the Berlin duo of Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary finally join the ranks of theDJ-Kicksseries, marking a long-held ambition in the same year thatDJ-Kicksand!K7 Recordscelebrate milestone anniversaries.

Known for their restless creativity and refusal to follow a straight line,Modeselektorbring that same approach here. The mix was assembled quickly but instinctively, capturing their signature push-pull between club rhythms and more abstract, beatless selections. Features tracks fromUntold,Ben Klock & Fadi Mohem,GAISTER,Little Simz,Maxime Denuc, and more.

Field recordings made on tour, including a snippet from a session in Kingston, Jamaica, add another layer to the mix. Its a set built to be revisitedone that slowly reveals its hidden details and shifting contours over time. ForModeselektor, this isnt just a compilation, but a snapshot of where their ears are at right now. Dont skip the tracks, Szary laughs. Just enjoy it.
