Flashy (Original & Remixes) EP edition

With her new album Dust poised for release in May, Ellen Allien has already started sprinkling her fairy dust over dancefloors far and wide again. However, in order to appease the waiting hordes just for the moment, the BPITCH CONTROL boss is giving the world an advance single release - a little taste, you might say, of what is to come on the LP in May. “Flashy Flashy” is the name of the track, and that's exactly how it feels. It prances along with a light heart and a vague sense of bewilderment, perfectly content and probably a little bit nuts. The bassline dips, the beat scuttles along, and the synth glistens nervously between all kinds of curious crackling and fizzling, gradually causing the contours of your surroundings to blur. But why would you want to bring these shapes into focus? Ellen glides through the night, tastes madness, breathes in the mist and holds her gaze on the glittering coloured lights. She doesn't even blink as her voice tells of fleeting encounters in flashes of the night, of the unexplored depths of the rings around the eyes facing her, and of the voice of the pitched-down alter ego she finds inside. A moment of inspired indifference. It's all a game. It's all a secret. And yet it all makes sense. “Flashy Flashy” marks this perfect moment of existence which won't be grasped, won't be captured in words. A moment that only ever exits as a blurred memory.
