"In 2017, Moderat (Modeselektor+Apparat) announced they would take an extended break after a final gig in front of 17,000 people in their hometown of Berlin. Now they’re back. MORE D4TA, the band’s fourth album, arrives more than six years after its predecessor (III in 2016). Largely created during a time when touring (and most travel) was off the table, MORE D4TA is an album that grapples with feelings of isolation and information overload — issues that have become particularly pronounced over the last two years. The ten songs of MORE D4TA are a collaborative effort, but long before the tracks were written, Moderat spent months meeting and reconnecting over music, indulging in long periods of experimentation and slowly fleshing out their ideas by diving deep into modular synthesis, field recordings and other sonic oddities. But no matter how far the band ventures into music’s outer realms, it always circles back to its unique sound world, a place where emotive pop and floating electronic soundscapes walk hand in hand. Having spent the better part of two decades making music together, the band has carved out a sound and aesthetic that is uniquely their own, and MORE D4TA presents a group creatively refreshed and fully committed to its craft."
