34423 - Affinity Diagram

An affinity diagram is a way of finding commonalities among seemingly unrelated things. Usually, you grab a stack of post-it notes and listen / read through interview notes. You write down interesting quotes or insights. Then you group them in ways that seem to make sense. Often very pleasantly surprising what comes up.

So it is with this deep-churner of an album. Field recordings and resampled loops coalesce and then rip apart like shattered gold-leaf windows in a martini blender.

Good music for busy bees, drones, and honey chasers of all stripes.

After college, I spent a couple months in Berlin and I still think back fondly on those wild times. Whenever I need a shot of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg beach bar, I reach for Ellen Allien und alles wird gut.
