“Ed Banger Records boss Busy P and friends take over the controls of Ladyland. It’s an understatement to say this is one of the most important Dance labels of the last 25 years. Home to Justice, DJ Mehdi, Cassius, Breakbot, Sebastian, Mr Oizo, Uffie, Riton, Laurent Garnier to name but a few, their sound defined the post-Daft Punk landscape with a mixture of fizzing, crunching synths, incredible production, and a knowing swagger and confidence not seen since the days of…well, Muscle Shoals? Ahead of their live date in London, we catch up with the boss, who’ll also be bringing in some friends for good measure.
And head of our Berlin season next month, we’ve invited the City’s favourite sons Modeselektor to be our resident DJs for the night. They’re picking a few of their favourite tunes ahead of the release of their fourth album Who Else on their own – and very excellent – Monkeytown Records. This is the first new material from the duo since 2011’s Monkeytown. We’ve already heard the incredible ‘Wealth’ with Flohio, plus their latest tracks I Am Your God and Bronko and it’s shaping up to be a typically noisy affair. On Twitter they said: After 2 years of endless nonsense talk and procrastination, followed by 6 months of panicking, we finally recorded our 4th album within only 4 weeks.””
