Motor to support Mode in (most of) Europe!

We’re so happy to report that Home faves MOTOR will be supporting Depeche Mode on 20 dates across Europe this coming summer. Motor’s remix of “Precious” was highlighted by Martin Gore as the best remix of a Mode song ever, and their track “Yak” was included in the pre-show music on the last tour. Well this time, instead of one track on a mixtape, we’re getting the real deal!!! The group is by far one of the most interesting and energetic live bands on the electronic music scene these days.

Motor will be releasing their third album, “Metal Machine”, later this year, preceded by the single “Death Rave”. Also forthcoming from the American/French duo are remixes for Acidkids and Kanye West!
