Moderat is an electronic music project that originated in Berlin, Germany. It started as a collaboration between Sascha Ring, also known as Apparat, and Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary, also known as Modeselektor. Their first full length album was released seven years after their first EP, due to some creative disagreements and different opinions on how they should work.
The album Moderat has received mostly favorable reviews.
In March 2012, Modeselektor announced on their Facebook fanpage that they would start work on a second album later that year.
In February 2013 band announced their second album titled II. It is set to release through Modeselektor’s Monkeytown Records on August 2.
As the band says:
“We have known each other for 12 years now, and during that time we haven’t really changed that much: We are still three guys mostly talking about hihats and tape machines while hanging out in the studio… [II] is, again and again, an experiment of exploring our similarities and differences and to interlace them to something new and exciting.”
Man I actually can’t wait for this to come out. I never thought they’d do another album.
I saw Apparat last year and he did Rusty Nails live and it was just amazing. Need to catch the next tour
Siriusmo has drawn the cover again, and Pfadfinderei will return as the music video maker. <3 Those Pfadfinderei videos are amazing.

Leaked on ZEROES2 on vk!!
Oh my!!!
let’s see if it’s legit.. so weird it leaked now! by the way i couldn’t wait
Anyone heard the album yet? Dying to know if its good or not being a big fan of Apparat.
It’s cool, but i liked the first Moderat album more..
Yeah, me too… First was a lot better.
If you’re a big fan of Apparat, you’ll love this. I’ve given it 5 or 6 listens now, and I think it’s fantastic.
Its up on TPB now too, very legit. Half way through it now, sounds very, very good.
This will be a vinyl purchase for sure
Kickass.to has it on site now. It’s fine, but not close to their first. See you in Copenhagen!
wish there were more songs with vocal, they are great, but others aren’t.
