Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary hardly need an introduction. Since the early 2000s, the East Berlin duo has evolved from local techno innovators into a globally established force. Along the way they founded Monkeytown Records, a creative hub that now spans their own releases and an eclectic roster of artists across genres. Friendship, openness and an unshakable curiosity have always defined MODESELEKTOR. Their sound has never stayed in one lane, diving headfirst into IDM, hip hop, UK bass, breaks, house and ambient. Collaboration has been equally essential. Their albums and live shows have featured artists like Thom Yorke, Tommy Cash, Flohio, Siriusmo, Blixa Bargeld, Iggor Cavalera, Catnapp, Otto Von Schirach, Paul St. Hilaire, Omar Souleyman, Anti Pop Consortium, Miss Platnum and many more. Bronsert and Szary have always created as one, rarely working separately. Their work with Sascha Ring, aka Apparat, as Moderat opened an entirely new chapter, leading to sold-out tours and arena shows. When Apparat returned to his solo work, MODESELEKTOR took a needed break, retreating to the studio with renewed purpose.
