Tracklisting:

The clarity of sound on “Thrills”, the coherence, which finds its basis in Ellen Allien’s personal history, refers to memories – ones that were really experienced and not just re-produced feelings – which are still so moving that they not only become the sound of a whole generation, but also the soundtrack to her own biography. Ellen Allien’s technoid, electroid roots, the everlasting game of asking the question “What else can you do with it?” shows that techno has not come to an end by a long way – on the contrary. Because with every shout of “Techno Is Dead”, it is newly born with a different face, which at least on “Thrills” is very coherent and self-contained and invites you to linger. And all this time, Ellen Allien’s orientation toward what rocks the hardest, what makes the dance floor boil over, is emblematic of her life and experience as a DJ. The bass is always the common thread and all the vocals and melodies twirl around it.
