This song has been around for a couple of months, those of you that have listened to Moderat's amazing self titled album or saw them on tour will know it. The clip, I believe, is a bit newer. It's a trip.
Finally picked up Moderat's new album 'Moderat' out on Bpitch Control - it's phenomenal. Moderat is a collab between Bpitch's Apparat and Modeselektor.
This track is my favorite upon first listen. FUCK Busdriver is the shit
Moderat - BeatsWaySick [feat Busdriver]
You'd better go see Moderat while they're on tour, cuz you won't see either of these artists on this side of the ATL for a while
So here's the skinny on 50 Weapons. It seems that Berlin music gurus Modeselektor have attempted to release something under the radar. In 2006, a track was released anonymously on a fresh new label out of the UK. It didn't garner too much attention but was uploaded to the Modeselektor Myspace soon thereafter with the 50 Cent acapella. The vocal sample at the beginning is featured in BPitch Control's Boogy Bytes Vol. 3 (mixed by Modeselektor).

No fooling us here. Definitely Modeselektor. However in the past few weeks, I have been reading the odd this and that about a new 50 Weapons release. Fortunately, this is the case. They've changed it up a bit by preparing a 12" double sided single. The duo had some killer material lying around and had local buddies Siriusmo and Housemeister put their own unique touches on them. Here are some snippets.

Keep your ears open for these tracks. I'm sure they'll get lots of play in the near future. Plus you might be able to hear them at the Moderat show, coming to a venue near you!
Now here's a show you'll definitely not want to miss. Three man rave machine Moderat, made up of BPitch Control's masterminds Modeselektor and Apparat, will be promoting the release of their self titled first album "Moderat" this month by touring through the states for a couple of weeks. They'll be accompanied by Pfadfinderei, who will be sure to bring some crazy visuals. The show will be amazing! "Moderat" is their first recording since the EP “Auf Kosten der Gesundheit” (“At The Cost Of Health"), which came out in 2003 and was the only piece we got to hear from them until now. Well it was worth the wait. The sound has completely matured, their first single "A New Error" already blew away critics' minds and the next release will surely do the same. Sascha Ring lends his voice to "Rusty Nails" for some Arcadia style vocals over a sweet garage beat. Again you will hear elements of both Modeselektor and Apparat. They just work so well together.
This is more of a home listening mix, perfect for driving or commuting, or chillin on sunday morning. Coming it at just over an hour and 15 minutes, this can help you get through over an hour of a fucking terrible day!
