Berlin: Ellen Allien & Friends

Ellen Allien is back in Boiler Room Berlin and she’s invited good friends Camea, Phon.O, Deniz Kurtel and Manik.

Over the past 20-plus years Ellen Allien has boldly stood as a towering figure in Berlin's realm of electronic music and beyond. Born in Berlin, living and working in Berlin and Ibiza, one of the planet’s most dynamic party scenes, her artistic home stands for one thing above all: freedom, in every aspect. DJ, musician, label manager, t-shirt designer and creative all-rounder – Ellen Allien has carved out her own space in all these roles, creating a unique universe. Via her label BPitch Control she has fostered the careers of many of dance musics heavyweights including Modeselektor, Apparat and Paul Kalkbrenner. And she hasn’t slowed down, releasing her most recent 12" ‘High' on the label this year as well as her last album ‘LISm’ in 2013. We can’t wait to have Ellen rock it for us one more time.

Camea will make her lond awaited debut for us. Since relocating to Berlin in 2007, it’s easy to see that the American artist has found herself more than at home, via the success and sound she has developed in this time. As a fellow BPitch Control artist and owner of her own label Clink Recordings, Camea has also accrued a lengthy discography since 2006 on other top labels such as M_nus, Soma, Plus 8 and Get Physical.

For the second time in Berlin we welcome back Phon.O, another artist who has an impressive discography, spanning the likes of 50 Weapons, Boys Noize Records and most recently BPitch Control via his ‘Velvet Rag’ EP this year. He absolutely smashed it last time, and we can’t help but expect more of the same.

On top of that we’ll have the return of Wolf+Lamb and Crosstown Rebels artist Deniz Kurtel, from whom we are anxiously awaiting her next album. Aswell as New York’s Manik who busy as always has a steady stream of releases on the way to close out 2015 on the likes of BPitch Control, Josh Wink’s OVUM and Black Butter.
