Stephen Mallinder + Modell Doo

Stephen Mallinder, co-founder and frontman of the iconic Cabaret Voltaire, has returned with his first solo album in over 35 years: Um Dada. Laced with leftfield house and cut-up sound collages, Um Dada is a melding of energies that are an exercise in simplicity and motion. Sincere, playful realism that beckons your body to move, always reminding you to never take yourself too seriously without forfeiting your agency.

Modell Doo was formed in May 1985 (originally as Modell D’oo). The band has been – and is – based in (and around) Vienna, Austria. Modell Doo as a project was specialized from the start: It focused on the niche between electroacoustic avant-garde, synthetic pop, Dada and industrial music, composing with analog synthesizers, drum machines and primitive sampling techniques, but it also included edgy guitar riffs and acoustic (predominantly percussive) sound sources like metal rims, breaking glass or oil barrels in their songs.
