About this product
With Classics Vol. 1 (CV1), Modeselektor are releasing a special edition that functions like a musical résumé. CV stands for Curriculum Vitae, and not by chance. Szary and Gernot originally intended to rerecord old tracks from their first two albums, Hello Mom! And Happy Birthday!. But what began as a reconstruction transformed almost entirely into something new a fresh collection of pieces that captures the spirit of their early releases without simply copying them. The duo looks back while simultaneously creating the future. Tracks like InchKill Bill Vol. 4,Inch InchEdgar,Inch and other album titles served as source material, were repeatedly disassembled and reassembled, reinterpreted, and ultimately used, in most cases, only as abstract inspiration. The result is a retrospective that has emancipated itself. Classics Vol. 1 forges an unexpected bridge between then and now, encapsulating everything that defines Modeselektor curiosity, chaos, humor, and an unwavering need to constantly uncover new facets of their own history.

Limited gold vinyl LP pressing. InchIn 2008 I came across a box of 7Inch tapes at an estate sale in Altadena. The woman there said that they had belonged to her father and were Inchfield recordingsInch of a turn-of-the century orchestra. It took me maybe another year to actually load them up and transfer them to the computer. When I did, what I found was an incredible documentation of indigenous folkloric music that was meticulously recorded and then later transferred to 2-track tape sometime in the 1960's. The tapes were labeled InchContact Field OrchestraInch- a collection of field recordings that seem to date from sometime around the turn of the 20th century (possibly a little earlier). The sound this orchestra created is like something out of a Jim Jarmusch film, and reminds me of an old Library of Congress or Folkways recording. The music itself is full of opposites - hypnotizing and odd; meditative and jarring. It's strangely familiar, but also distantly unrecognizable. Some songs are more minimalist in their approach, building up a rhythm with mbiras and percussion, while others seem to have much more harmony and tonal structure and almost Blues/Country feel. Either way, they had me hooked from the first bar, and I find myself returning to it again and again, irregardless of my heavy-handed noodling... I'm really happy to have discovered this, and I hope you are too. All the best,Inch Damon Aaron Album Tracks 1. Iron Pyrite 2. In the Cave 3. Tobacco Flower 4. Shaman 5. Into the Mine 6. Man Down 7.
