Moderat’s “Last Time” is the third single from their overwhelmingly successful sophomore album, II released via Mute and Monkeytown Records. “Last Time” EP includes an exclusive instrumental version of the single, an alternate version and a guest remix by one of the most exciting acts in electronic music in 2013, Jon Hopkins. “Last Time” was originally available only on the deluxe album formats of II.
Coinciding with the single release we are excited to share with you the video for “Last Time” directed and produced by Pfadfinderi. “Last Time” is a video about suburban youth, friendship, boredom and a great escape. Shot in rural neighborhoods surrounding Berlin in the autumn light, the video beautifully frames the independent spirit and simple pleasure of escaping the confines of your daily life through the shared experience of belonging to a group of friends.
