Miss Kittin Interview

Long before DJs became megastars, Caroline Hervé (aka Miss Kittin) was one of the first performers whose celebrity shined on a scene mired in anonymity. Starting in the early ’00s with hit songs “Frank Sinitra” and “1982,” her career has ridden the waves of success over four albums of electronic-driven pop that always remain fueled by the dance floor.

Her latest, Falling From The Stars, offers yet another look at Hervé. The double disc set feature classic Kittin tunes on disc one, while disc two focuses on moody instrumental electronica — a sound one might only recognize from her tendency to toss an odd Autechre tune in the middle of a blazing techno DJ set.

Ellen Allien “Our Eutopie” (Video)

Has it really been over half a decade since Ellen Allien appeared on the cover of URB with fellow Berliners Richie Hawtin and Miss Kittin? Besides making me feel old (I could never again fly from LA to NYC to Berlin and back in 72 hours, without sleeping, just to get a story—ok, maybe…) this new clip from Ellen is a reminder of exactly why we were so psyched on her back then, and why we still perk up when news of a new Ellen Allien record comes our way. Although frustratingly short, “Our Eutopie” is a great example of the minimal techno-pop that has always been Allien’s specialty on wax. The new album, Dust, comes forth next week.
