Officially dropping in a few days on August 2 on Mute and Monkeytown, the highly anticipated sophomore album from Moderat is now available to hear in full for the first time. Simply titled II, the union of Apparat‘s heart-warming melodies and the seemingly disparate Modeselektor sound make up the trio, yet there’s little evidence of clashing palates on the album. It’s definitely one of my favourite albums this year, and while it has unfortunately leaked already, I’ll definitely be buying this when it comes out.

If you haven’t heard it, head over to NPR here to give it your first listen.
