Product Description Berlin’s infamous Ellen Allien proudly delivers her 7th solo LP, the superlative ‘Nost’. Across nine seminal tracks, Ellen Allien demonstrates why she is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of Berlin’s techno scene. A visionary who has cultivated a sound which continues to evolve and mutate into new areas, moving smoothly between the classic analogue squelches of acid to anarchic splendour and mesmerising, celestial soundscapes. ‘Nost’ is the work of an artist who has found herself, yet still pushes herself to go beyond her comfort zone, still creating, still learning and still yearning for more. This is Ellen Allien, this is Berlin and this is ‘Nost’.

Refreshing Techno Treats
Berlin's Ellen Allien gives good techno and her new album 'Nost' is a doozy!The sound and mood is somewhat less dark than some of her previous work.A few of the nine tracks are downright perky! The beats, as ever, are impeccable.Opening number 'Mind Journey', in spite of the repeated entreaty from a disgruntledrobot, is a frisky invention whose relative simplicity belies its addictive demeanour.'Jack My A**' sports a crisp hi-hat, bumbling bass line and little bubble car synth "toottoots" to light hearted effect. 'Erdmond' crackles with moody extraterrestrial electricity.It's pleasing to find Ms Allien in such fine fettle. It'll doubtless go down a storm at Berghain!Highly Recommended.
