Moderat

"Reminder"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Feb 5, 2016

Consider this a friendly reminder: German electronic force Moderat have a new full-length titled III coming out in just over a couple of month's time. Helping promote the set, a stream of first single "Reminder" can be coursed through speakers right now.

The cut is driven by a manic whap of percussive beat work and velvet synth textures, which all support the smooth and plaintive vocals of Apparat. According to a press release, "his lyrics deal with how assuming responsibility can potentially lead to a new beginning."

Of the many observations he makes in the single, he suggests at one point, "dark is the shadow filled with prejudice, not pride."

You can unite with Moderat's latest down below, while III arrives April 1 via Mute/Monkeytown. It will be supported with a North American tour that hits Montreal and Vancouver. You'll find the details of the trip over here.
