Smalltown Presents Ellen Allien, Move D, Jimpster & Barem

Smalltown has combined the talents Ellen Allien, Move D, Jimpster & Barem for an electrifying night at Brown Alley.

Ellen Allien, the understated ‘it’ girl of Berlin, is best known for being authentic. With a childhood most electronic heads envy, this citykid graced the Berlin electronic scene back in the wonder years.

As the world of electronic music continues to move away from the dry, minimal sound, Move D’s warm, deep past looks prescient. But while deep house and ambient music may once again fall out of favor, David Moufang, the man behind the Move D name, will most likely keep plugging away until the whole thing comes around again. Smalltown Presents Ellen Allien, Move D, Jimpster & Barem (After all, he’s already been at it for more than 20 years.) He has been churning out the hits with a string of incredible releases, his live performances have been on par with (if not superior to) his studio work, pulling from all corners of his diverse catalogue in order to create a truly unique experience.

Barem’s minimalistic style combines warm Latin infusions with powerful bass lines. His album, After The Storm, cemented Barem as one of the scene’s keenest sonic inventors and finest live performers.

Jimpster’s highly anticipated LP will be released in May by his label, Freerange. Named in honour of the warm bosom that cradled his hangovers and creative impulses; Porchlight & Rockingchairs is intended as the soulful companion to mankind’s common comedown.
