The many, very telling tags above (IDM = Intelligent Dance Music) could be even more. Modeselektor is a mix of genres - the new disc Monkey Town is also hip-hop, it's Moby (many tracks) and it's Zappa + Mothers (track 9) and more. As the band puts it, commenting on the style of music they play: "Happy metal, hard rap, country-ambient, Russian crunk. We don’t like it if people tag us as being a certain style or school or scene or whatever. We don’t really care about all that."

The story of Modeselector is that in 1992 they met and performed acid house live at illegal raves in Berlin. They called themselves Fundamental Knowledge, but after four years they changed their name to Modeselektor - a name from an electro-music machine from the firm Roland. In 1999 they began to publish music. And cooperated with various artistic collectives dealing with video and music.
