MONKEYTOWN (VINYL)

Welcome to Monkeytown, Berlin duo Modeselektor return full force with a new album of immense energy and clubboiling beats, who's sole purpose is to inject the global dance community with new inspiration! Contributing to the album is a vivid palette of guest vocalists/artists including Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Busdriver, PVT , Anti Pop Consortium, Miss Platnum, Sascha Ring (aka Apparat), Pillow Talk, Gordon Boerger, Siriusmo and Otto von Schirach, Thom Yorke [a long time fan] collaborates on two tracks, contributing production finesse and his distinctive
haunting falsetto vocals to both cuts, Flowing freely between styles and tempos, Monkeytown experiments with the edges and extremes, exploring fresh sonic territory from a solid base of beats located deep within the groove, With massive drums, minced vocals and a mastery of mounting tension, Modeselektor creates a new animal out of dance music, a mutating chimera with body parts of left-field hip hop, soulful R&B, punk rap and playful surprises, Beneath Monkeytown's exquisite orchestration and eclectic sound, pure energy is at its core, vibrating with an emotional vivacity that dares to escape its sonic cage and fling itself upon the world like a heaving monster, grabbing at you with gasping urgency!
