It’s been two years since Modeselektor unleashed Hello Mom! to the masses, and one wonders how an electronic outfit that brought together all things crunk follows up on such a strong debut.
The answer: fill the new album with an all-star guest list, which Modeselektor has done on Happy Birthday!. The new album features a wealth of electronic music’s great sages, including Thom Yorke, TTC, Otto Von Schirach, and a bonus track featuring Maximo Park.
As both members are expecting children this year, Happy Birthday! is a apt title for the album. The duo will be playing a few dates this summer, so catch them while you can.
Happy Birthday! is out September 11, 2007 on BPtich Control.
