VINYL FORMAT. Ellen Allien now trips back into the massive center of the club. "Lover" whirs and twinkles amidst subtle synth elements and between the hiss of the fog machine and the whispering voice of the siren. However, there's also a tight bass line, grooving synths, and shakers that add a house-y lightness. "You Are" features a straight kickdrum paired with tribal elements and a forward-rolling synth. Friction enough to sand the last bit of craziness out of ravers' spinal cords.

VINYL FORMAT. Bpitch's ever-respected ringleader follows up 2001's fabulous "Stadtkind" album and the recent Weiss mix with a fresh new nine-tracker, "Berlinette." Building on the ace "Erdbeermund" 12", the album is a much more focused effort than we've witnessed from her before. Dense structures, chunky glitchtronix, heavy beats (some of which are courtesy of beat-twister extraordinaire, Apparat), and devastating basslines and melodies all combine to form a unique collection of 21st century technopop.

VINYL FORMAT. Sool is the fourth full-length solo release (following Stadtkind, Berlinette and Thrills) by the inimitable queen, Ellen Allien. Welcome once again to the Allien world: this one is subtle, mysterious, and minimal. Created in the deepest and darkest of Berlin's winters, 2007-2008, Sool is intended to be a valve, a loophole, a respite from the crazy summers into the introspection and hibernation of winter. This could easily be Allien's most intimate album yet: the sounds of everyday life    [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. BPitch presents the last single release off of Ellen Allien's album Sool. "Ondu" and "Caress" get the remix treatment by Chaim and Paul Ritch. "Ondu" has two faces: obliging and harmonious on one side, and ruggedly dusky on the other. Ritch chops it up, isolating each effect and making it sleazy, while keeping the spleeny, schizophrenic attitude of the original. Chaim's remix hits the sound carpet with a big beater, turning the hypnotic silence of "Caress" into a whorled disturbance.

VINYL FORMAT. Double LP version. Ellen Allien's third studio album. Thrills harkens back to the dank, dense warehouses of German clubs like Tresor and Detroit basement acid house blowouts. Thrills connects the dots of 808 State, Gina X and Kompakt.

VINYL FORMAT. 3-track EP featuring remixes from MFA & Modeselektor! With Magma Ellen Allien sets out to loosen us up for her third album Thrills. Everybody will sweat in this small workout because Magma is like a little steam turbine with which Ellen Allien softly digs up the dance floor so that we can dance at the center of the earth, sweating profusely in the heat. Whoever doesn't understand that Ellen turns more than just a few knobs is, so to speak, not seeing the forest with all th   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Allien leaves everything out on "Astral" and instead offers her own definition of minimal Elechtech. Here she pins down every centimeter of the dance floor -- she knows how every corner, every angle sounds around her. In the process, she moves onward conscientiously. She is fully realized, especially in regard to her surroundings from years past to those ahead. Ellen longed for space with beat frequency, and her attempt to breach the threshold of technoid elektro continues to expand the genre.   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. After Ellen Allien's long-expected fourth solo album Sool, here is the first 12'', which presents two tracks off of the album in extended vinyl versions. "Sprung" is characterized best by a permanent moving back and forth. Smooth, precise loops and subliminal bass lines accent the mysterious effects. "Its" is driving and direct -- a rough and straight piece of music that evolves, goes forward, and absorbs the listener completely.

VINYL FORMAT. "Elphine" is a track off of Ellen Allien's highly-acclaimed Sool. Zander VT and Troy Pierce purify this track with a pair of special remixes. "Elphine" creeps into your subconscious and produces positive energy. For Zander VT's remix, the characteristic "Elphine" hook crosses the whole remix theme and pushes the audience straight onto the dancefloor. Troy Pierce's remix is unique, pushed by an impulsive bass line and newly-arranged vocals, taken from the original.
