Berlin based techno masters Modeselektor have announced a new album and a slew of DJ Gig tour dates. The duo will return from their four year album hiatus with Monkeytown out on October 4th. Monkeytown is being released on Modeselektor’s own label, Monkeytown Records (wonder if they’ll change the name for future records…). It’s been known that Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke is a huge fan of the Berlin duo, and he’s actually helping out on this album. Additionally, Busdriver, PVT, Anti Pop Consortium, and Miss Platnum are all apparently helping out with Monkeytown. Tour dates below.
