Allien




Ellen Allien; girl dj,founder of BPitch record label and fashion designer. It is apparent that her desire for progression is out of this world. Growing up in Berlin Ellen immersed herself in music. Teaching herself how to read music notes, plinking on her electric organ and listening to her juke box, Ellen started her journey down the path in which she would become Ellen Allien. After the Berlin Wall came down Ellen had the opportunity to focus on art and music as she worked behind a bar in the fischlabor; which soon grew in to a music network where. There Ellen made her first mixed tapes which then led to playing her music in the night lived “techno scene of empty industrial buildings” in Berlin. This is where the dawn of Ellen Allien took place. With the night life closing down in Berlin, and the burning desire to continue expressing herself through music Ellen founded BPitch.
In 2011 Ellen/BPitch released werkschau which she complied herself. The album contains “extraordinary and highly functional club gems that represent BPitch's harmonious concept.”
