Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary have been carving out their own niche since forming as Modeselektor back in the 90s. Never bound by genre, the pair have constantly created hybrid forms of techno, bass and electro since they started working together and their unpredictable activity means you'll never know what they're going to do next. Together, they're one of the most respected and innovative acts in the world of dance music.

Not content with being a leading production outfit, Modeslektor are on-point DJs with an ear for new, progressive sounds and recently they've been pushing the hardened club tracks that labels like Sound Pellegrino and ClekClekBoom specialise in. We wanted to hear what's in their record bags right now so we asked them to put together an exclusive In Session mix. They haven't disappointed; this one veers from Lee Gamble to DJ Sliink, The Haxan Cloak to MikeQ.

Tastemakers in the truest sense of of the word, their rise kicked off in 2005 when they found an early home found on Ellen Allien's Bpitch Control imprint with debut album 'Hello Mom'. A second, 'Happy Birthday', was released via the label in 2007 and their heavy but wildly original style was established. People started going bat-shit crazy for the duo from Berlin and their profile rose at a rapid rate.

Their working relationship with other artists has always been strong and in 2009 they joined up with fellow German and long-time friend Apparat to found Moderat. Their all-analogue, self-titled debut album had people all over the world losing it and a second Moderat LP in 2013 only intensified their global status.

In 2011 they released 'Monkeytown' via their own label of the same name and since then they've continued to fuck the game up in any way they can. They run 50 Weapons, the label responsible for heavy-hitting techno from the likes of Shed, Laurent Garnier and Bambounou. They frequently collaborate with the likes of Thom Yorke, Siriusmo, Pfadfinderei (the video company responsible for their insane visuals) and also run a stage called Meltselektor at German festival Melt.

We're still waiting for the fourth Modeselektor album; this could be down to their hectic tour schedule or it could be that they're in their laboratory cooking up something gnarly for us. Either way the guys have recorded this latest In Session mix and once again they've struck a curveball.

Modeselektor will play at LEAF, London on March 6 & 7, Friday's performance will be live and Saturday will feature a DJ set, to grab tickets to the event and for more information head over to the official website.
