Released in 1983 on Sky Records and produced at Mythos Studio Berlin, Modern Leben marks a bold evolution for the Schultze brothers under the Vono name. Building on the minimalism of their debut, the duo expanded their sonic palette by weaving spiky synth lines and driving rhythms together with rock-influenced accents, resulting in a fuller, more aggressive sound rooted in the German post-punk and synth-pop traditions.
Across its 13 tracks, Modern Leben moves through a wide range of moods and textures — from brooding, atmospheric moments to bursts of punchy, Devo-esque energy — all while keeping songs tight and purposeful. It's a confident, adventurous record that captures a uniquely Berlin-era blend of electronic and rock sensibilities, making it a compelling listen for fans of early 1980s European electronic music.
