Most recently Modestep have released their Machines EP featuring two killer remixes of band’s lead single from Mefjus and Tru Fonix, exclusively on Beatport. Perforated with mechanized samples, warped synths and the heavy bass that electronic fusion act MODESTEP--brothers Josh (vocals, keyboards) and Tony Friend (DJ, guitar), Pat Lundy (drums) and Kyle Deek (lead guitar)--have made their own, “Machines” proves that the U.K. band is not content to stay within the fold. By seamlessly melding rock with electro influences MODESTEP have crafted their own sound that defies definition by genre and “Machines” is just a taste of what’s to come from the group this year.

About Modestep: London Road, the new album from Modestep due out May 26 on MAX Records/INgrooves, say brothers Josh and Tony Friend, is the real deal, an accurate representation of the four-piece they’ve become, and a passionate tribute to their home city.  The success of Modstep’s debut album ‘Evolution Theory’ launched them into the A League after dabbling in music their whole lives. Tony came more from the DJ side of things, getting his first decks aged 13, while Josh was into practicing the musical aspect, learning piano from age ten and in bands forever. Just before things kicked off Josh worked in the Apple Store and Tony was at university.  Indeed their debut show was at the Download Festival. They’ve developed a fierce live reputation since evolving into an four –piece outfit who punch hard but also have versatility. They can fit on a bill at Reading, Ultra, Download or Coachella but are equally at home beside electronic names they were listening to in the run-up to the album  - Noisia, Squarepusher, Black Sun Empire, Neosignal, Nero, Justice, Amon Tobin and the like. And they can’t wait to take it back onto the stage, to globally show off an album they’re immensely proud of.  Modestep are back, they’re loud and they’re filled with fire. Watch out, world.
