Editing Front 242 (section)

===2000s===
2002 saw the beginning of a wave of new material from Bresanutti and Codenys, and then from Front 242. In August 2002 a DVD/CD two-disc set called ''Speed Tribe'' was released by Dance.com. The DVD was a collaboration with experimental documentary filmmakers Rod Chong and Sharon Matarazzo, who filmed the 2001 24 Hour Le Mans. In the video, the racecars, clouds, rain and spectators form an impressionistic visual backdrop for the music.

Several months later, the first release from Male or Female, also known as Morf, a new project for Bresanutti and Codenys along with vocalist Elko Blijweert. In 2002 and 2003, Morf released an album, an E.P., a double album, and a DVD/CD two-disc combo, on the Belgian record label [[Alfa Matrix]], and went on tour through the U.S.

Then, 2002 and 2003 also saw the release of the new material from Front 242 in a decade: the EP ''[[Pulse (Front 242 album)#Still & Raw EP|Still & Raw]]'' and the album ''[[Pulse (Front 242 album)|Pulse]]'', released on XIIIBis Records in Europe and Metropolis in the U.S. These represented another iteration of Front 242's explicitly stated goal of reinventing itself. The style of the two new releases is more mellow than some of their past work, using more "glitchy" and "bleepy" sounds. As well, it uses the manipulated voice as a musical instrument. The new releases have a much more emotional style from De Meyer, which was presaged in his later recordings with [[C-Tec]] and particularly [[Cobalt 60 (band)|Cobalt 60]] on its album ''Twelve''.

Front 242 promised a new U.S. tour to perform new material from these releases. They have made occasional appearances in Latin America and Europe, even being rejoined by Dirk Bergen for a reunion concert in Aarschot (De Klinker club) in 2004 under the original lineup of Bresanutti, Bergen, Codenys and De Meyer. This performance was kept secret until two days before the show but when the scene magazine [[Side-Line]] and the band's label [[Alfa Matrix]] launched the news, tickets were quickly sold out.

The band has now also set itself to re-release its entire back catalogue both as a normal CD and as a limited edition consisting of a 2-CD set holding previously unreleased material. For this the band is working together with the Belgian label [[Alfa Matrix]] that already took care of releasing the albums of the Front 242 side-project Male Or Female. The first re-release is their debut album ''Geography'', this time newly remastered personally by Bresanutti to surprisingly powerful effect and including 3 extra tracks (two hidden ones) on the normal CD format.

Meanwhile, their enthusiasm for side projects has continued, as Patrick Codenys started appearing with a new group called [[Red Sniper]], Bresanutti started recording with a new group called Troissoeur, and Codenys and Richard 23 formed a quasi-DJ project called [[Coder23]] which toured in late 2004 and early 2005 as the opening act for [[VNV Nation]]. De Meyer contributed vocals on two studio tracks for the [[Glis]] album ''Nemesis'' in 2005. The lyrical content of the two songs ("The Irreparable" and "La Béatrice") were based on the poems of [[Charles Baudelaire]].

Front 242 toured through twenty venues in North America in November 2005, their first tour as a full band since 2000. The band performed at the [[Roskilde Festival]] in 2006. The band's sold out two-day performance at the Ancienne Belgique in Brussels has been recorded for a future release via [[Alfa Matrix]].

In December 2006, Front 242 announced from their MySpace page that they were writing music for a video game called ''[[Cipher Complex]]'' and provided a link to a teaser trailer with a short sample of one of their scores.

In 2007, De Meyer announced a new project: 32CRASH via the Alfa Matrix label. The band is preparing for an album release in October 2007 after the release of the EP ''Humanity''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=25639_0_2_0_C |title=32CRASH announces pre-sales debut album |date=4 September 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930165505/http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=25639_0_2_0_C |archive-date=30 September 2007 }}</ref>
