As the birthplace of techno, it's no surprise that Detroit also plays host to one of North America's most prominent dance music festivals (voted the #1 most anticipated festival of 2013 by Beatport and the top festival in May 2013 byResident Advisor). Founded in 2000 and renamed in 2006, the thirteenth annual Movement , or Detroit Electronic Music Festival (DEMF) , will take overHart Plaza in just a few weeks from May 25 through May28 .With a lineup filled to the brim with obvious legends and hometown favourites, cutting down to our top 12 was not an easy [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-01T11:37:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4925486/we-are-modeselektor/
A documentary can be a quite tough movie-subgenre from time to time, especially when it comes to capturing musical artists on a movie screen. Most die-hard fans which is the main target audience will already know most of the facts. So, one other achievement might be to get everybody else to understand the The post We Are Modeselektor appeared first on Nothing But Hope And Passion - NBHAP - Music Magazine & more .]]> text/html 2013-05-01T09:44:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4925392/moderat-detail-new-album-ii/

Listen to Cosmin TRGs new album, Gordian Having previously released material on the likes of Hemlock and Hessle Audio, the Romanian producer has decided on Modeselektors 50Weapons imprint for this album.

There's no negating electronic musics being at their best when they're powered by those most cerebral capacities of the human brain, just as there's no doubting the disparate genres thereof now approaching a point of absolute saturation. It's precisely why Daphni is preferable to Modeselektor, or why Pick a Piper pips Gold Panda in the stakes of immediate intrigue. And playing into that same richly academic school of thought, production value and so forth is Canterbury's Koloto , or rather Maria Sullivan to put a name to the otherwise isolated nom de plume.

Released as part of a special limited edition 123 from Monkeytown Records in celebration of Record Store Day this weekend, eLan's instrumental rendition of "Just Like Heaven" by The Cureis a rich and beautiful departure from the original, circa the big hair days of 1987. I'm probably offending all you diehard Cure fans, but it's a challenge for my 21st century trained ears to tolerate the vocal version - Robert Smith's plaintive wails detract from the new melody's rich synth [...]]]> text/html 2013-04-19T17:25:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4903528/selektions/
I was a latecomer to the Modselektor camp, I'd tried before to explore their sound but nothing gelled with me too well. That all changed come their third LP Monkeytown and since then I've been all over their stuff, lucky they have material spanning from here to 2003 then, there's a lot of variety to be had here.

Siriusmo is back after more than a two-year break with a nice start to his upcoming sophomore album, Enthusiast. Itchy is a meticulously worked, jagged, and synthetic-sounding track. The experimental melody, blended with a lattice of techno blips, renders it a fascinating teaser for Siriusmos forthcomingand allegedly finalalbum. Producer and Berlin native Moritz Friedrich himself sent out a mildly confusing press release via Twitter that read: After eighteen years, elaborate and outrageously expensive recording with a full-size Czech symphony orchestra, Siriusmo decided to reject it and to retire with enthusiasm.
