You can call them a "supergroup", but Moderat understands that it's the "group" aspect that makes them interesting. Gernot Bronsert, Sebastian Szary (aka Modeselektor) and Sascha Ring (aka Apparat) have been working together as a trio almost as long as their two separate projects have existed. We've seen their collaboration grow from "laptop boy-band," (as Ring playfully puts it) in 2003-with computers synched using software Ring himself had written, because at the time, "there was just no live performance software around."
