  • The Durian Brothers have a mini album called Das Macht Modern set for release on Kontra-Musik in a couple weeks. A collaboration between longtime German artists Florian Meyer, Marc Matter and Stefan Schwander, The Durian Brothers employ modified turntables—without using records—along with effects units and a sequencer to craft a dense, churning sound they call "rough club music" or "rhythmic noise." Das Macht Modern is the trio's first full studio release outside their own label Diskant, home to a trilogy of EPs put out from 2009 through 2012. They'll be continuing their exploration of unconventionally-sourced but warm and danceable beats, with Kontra-Musik saying the mini album "lends itself to feverish fantasies about the explorations of ancient cultures and malaria-stricken jungle expeditions." It'll come out on vinyl on October 27th, and a digital version will follow on November 24th. You can hear a sample of first track "Psychic Driving" below, and preview the others at the label's SoundCloud page.
