Modeselektor - Body Language Vol. 8 for Resident Advisor

Modeselektor are a significant part of my musical dialect, and I've been a fan for many years. It was no surprise, then, that this would be a challenging review for me. The pressure was on before I wrote the first sentence, and I discovered that not being a DJ might prove to be a challenge when writing about mixes.

While my wheels are in constant motion with AOLmusic, the in-depth reviews on electronic music have been more infrequent because I've been focusing on writing bios for producers. That can be tricky - making sure your reviews don't sound like press releases and vice-versa. I won't deny that it has been on my mind in the writing process, but I think the outcome has been successful.
