I am very pleased to see from the last post that Ms Ellen Allien of Berlin and her album are getting so much love on Poptimists! I think she deserves a post of her own. Specifically:
1) what is everyone's favourite song or sound?
2) what are the two songs which weren't on the promo like?
3) everyone who hasn't got
Orchestra Of Bubbles or heard any music by Ms Allien yet, I fully recommend her to everyone on Poptimists - I can't think of anyone who'll be disappointed by her music
4) how absolutely amazingly gorgeous is she, as well?
5) we can maybe give Apparat some credit at this point as it is his album as well, and his own stuff is good, though not as good as Ellen's
6) we can also talk about how great Ellen's record label Bpitch Control (this year's
Boogybytes mixes by Kiki and Sascha Funke are totally recommended) is in general, and any bobbins pertaining to women-in-electronic-music you feel like mentioning
6) BERLIN
To further the cause of 3),
