This is probably going to be my compilation pick for the year. It's really great, i agree. I like that she's taking listeners on a real journey, from the more dancefloor style of BPitch to electro (Andrea Parker, DJ Maxximus) and then into some pretty out there IDM tracks (Otto Von Schirach, Electric Company). I especially like the track from Apparat -- does anyone know where I can find this on CD or vinyl in its entirety?

The first Ellen Allien mix is good too (Flieg mit Ellen Allien), although much more dancefloor-inclined. Also I'm still very into her studio album, Stadtkind.... worth it for the title track alone. (Actually I think Smash TV helped her out with some of the production on that release, too) m.mercer :: design + sound design :: http://www.matthewmercer.com/ sound :: http://www.mattmercer.com/ _________________________________________________________________ Join the world?s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
