New Life

The album is a powerful statement on personal autonomy, community responsibility, and the destructive forces threatening our planet’s beauty. Recorded between Berlin, Miami and Ibiza over the past winters; the album channels themes of empowerment, anarchy, and collective action; a call to dismantle failing systems while embracing regeneration, growth, and new hope through self-determination.
Through her signature forward-thinking techno, Ellen explores the ocean’s beauty and humanity’s impact on it, creating sonic landscapes that aim to unite and build community on dancefloors, delivering light through darkness. Ellen’s spoken words arrive like signals from another planet, her distinctive voice creating an otherworldly sonic experience. This is emotional rave music, weaving elements of minimal, darkwave, hypnotic euphoria, into a vibrant journey, with first single ‚Steh Auf‘ as the rousing centre. Textured sonic landscapes richly cover the whole record where birds sing, waves crash, and spaceships fly through the Berlin night sky. The darkness gives space to explore the beauty of the world that exists from dusk to sunrise.
New Life takes many forms. Chosen families, unconventional care giving, womanhood beyond traditional scripts, embracing queerness, harnessing power to unite rather than divide. As conventions across the globe fail or are destroyed, ecological disasters and wars created for profit while leaders ignore their people, we believe that another world is not only possible but urgently necessary.
