"Emotional, noisy, trippy, weird, and sexual," is how Ellen Allien describes her new mix for BPitch Control's Boogybytes series.Boogybytes Vol.4 arrives next month.

Frau Allien's mix follows on from efforts from BPC staffers Kiki, Sascha Funke, and Modeselektor, and like those volumes, her mix is firmly planted in the club. Allien mixes up her favourite tracks from Ricardo Villalobos, Melchior Productions and Gaiser as well as newcomers Melon and Lucio Aquilina in between more kooky selections such as a spoken word intro from Berlin spoken poet AGF and the ballad 'Twice' from Swedish indie-pop quartet Little Dragon. The cover of the CD is another head-turning snap by photographer Axl Jansen as part of his "shaky heads" series.

Tracklist

01 Agf - Liniendicke
02 Vera - In The Nook
03 Ricardo Villalobos & Patrick Ense - Fizpatrick
04 Melon - Nitzi (In My Mind, So Fine)
05 Andres Zacco & Lucas Mari - Carbonela“ (Seph's Vidrionela Rmx)
06 Konpiùta - Christmas Fairytale“ (Moessap Edit)
07 Sozadams - Eyes Forlon
08 Richard Seeley - Juicy Vermin
09 Lucio Aquilina - My Cube
10 Melchior Productions - Don Juan
11 Friendly People - Music Is Improper“ (Martin Buttrich Rmx)
12 Sascha Funke - Double Checked
13 Gaiser - Withdrawal
14 Kassem Mosse - A1
15 Little Dragon - Twice

Sun, 01 Mar 2009I'm a bit late on this one... But just wanted to say that I think this is funking brilliant. It's funny how she manages to divide opinion. A trippy techno journey - absolutely love it. Music is improper into double checked into withdrawal...brill

Wed, 16 Apr 2008listening to this for the first time - really got thrown by the silence after 'Nitzi', especially after the great mix through the Villalobos track. And again got thrown after Sozadams (great track!)
It's kinda up and down quite a lot. Suits me on the way to work, but I'm not sure I could play this through on an evening - I'd keep thinking it'd missed out tracks.

SOOL on the other hand is an absolute winner.

Sat, 12 Apr 2008they have a saying down here in mexico that goes 'unos por otros' .. ones for others .. and honestly you can't please everyone .. ellen allien is a very important person in electronic music .. her label creates trends in sound from time to time and she is wholeheartedly authentic in what she does .. for me, that deserves respect and her credit is well due.
