"Live" is Moderat’s first-ever live album, recorded at Berlin’s Velodrom on June 5, 2016 during a sold out hometown show. In an age where technology develops at an exponential rate, the band crafted a live experience that truly exemplifies three of their homeland’s core competencies: technological innovation, musicianship and artistic expression. Instead of “pushing play”, Moderat works throughout their 90-minute performance to re-work their own music. They are constantly shaping, stretching, contouring and weaving special live versions of songs taken from I, II, and III.

Extremely enjoyable
As a live album goes, this is amazing. For the most part the whole album sounds amazing and is mastered well. There's a perfect amount of crowd vs music as well. The crowd isn't overpowering, but it's not watered down enough that it feels like I'm listening to a weird studio re-recording. That being said, each song fades out so if you're listening to music on shuffle it doesn't abruptly stop. However, it does contain a seamless track of the whole concert in case you want to listen to everything without the fadeouts, so that's really nice. Overall love it

Holy Trinity
Had the pleasure of seeing Moderat in Oakland, CA in December 2016, and although the setlist is moderat-ely different and the album doesn't magically convey what it's like to watch Gernot stomp around on stage enthusiastically like he's doing this for the first time, it's otherwise a representative slice of what it's like to share a room with the world's best electronic music. A New Error is the peak of their style, for me: slightly sinister, bassy but melodic, unclassifiable, room-filling wonders that propel you forward but steer totally clear of cliché. - Evan Lahti
