That’s what a little bit of loose chatter on the Division List seems to be hinting at. And it would make sense, since Shameless is a co-promoter of Broken Disco, and they’re who brought Modeselektor out for their sweat-on-the-walls hot set at ReBar last year.

It’s on their myspace: Fri, Oct 19th @ Broken Disco (Chop Suey)!

Also, Modeselektor’s sophomore full-length, Happy Birthday! is out today. Here’s my review from this week’s CD Reviews:

MODESELEKTOR

Happy Birthday!

(Bpitch Control)

***1/2

Modeselektor’s debut full-length, Hello Mom!, succeeded in part because of a certain element of surprise. For those not following the duo of Gernot Bronsert and Sebastian Szary’s odd 12-inch singles and compilation appearances, the album must have seemed to come out of nowhere. And its eclectic yet thoroughly synthesized mix of electro, dub, hiphop, breaks, and ambient kept the listener guessing from track to track, never sure what mode these selectors would land on next.

The duo’s sophomore effort, Happy Birthday! (both Bronsert and Szary are new fathers), may have fewer shocks in store—in fact, it sometimes feels like a retread—but this sequel more than makes up for the familiarity with Modeselektor’s signature, impeccable sound design. Synths bounce and squiggle, tones ping like sonar or bubble up and burst, beats and samples pulse and disintegrate.

Some guests from the first album return here—French rap crew TTC add their vocal charisma to digitally stuttered club creeper “2000007” and Rhythm & Sound crooner Paul St. Hilaire delivers the coolly Teutonic dub ballad “Let Your Love Grow.” Some new collaborators show up as well, notably a typically ethereal Thom Yorke (he’s a fan) on the dubstep-steeped “The White Flash,” Berlin-based hiphop puppetry troupe (seriously) Puppetmastaz on trunk-rattler “The Dark Side of the Sun,” and Otto von Schirach on the demented Miami bass of “Hyper Hyper.”

Even with such company, the star is always Bronsert and Szary’s productions. The album’s unabetted tracks—the playfully menacing “Happy Birthday,” with its loping guitar and deep, punchy bass; the ghostly, clave-driven “Godspeed;” the caustic arpeggios of “Sucker Pin” and “Black Block;” the soft-focus haze of “EM Ocean” and “Edgar”—only further cement Modeselektor’s place in 2000007 as producers of formidable breadth, depth, and skill.
