The tricky spelling of its name has not stopped BPitch Control to establish itself as one of the top brands for European techno: Founded by superstar DJ and producer Ellen Allien in East Berlin more than a decade ago, the label started out with a constant stream of beautifully designed releases, bridging the gaps between Techno, electro, IDM and pop music. Ever since scoring its first chart hit - TokTok & Soffy O.'s 'Missy Queen's Gonna Die' - the label has consistently gone from strength to strength, managing to establish quite a few of its home-grown artists in the jet set league of electronic music: Modeselektor, Paul Kalkbrenner, Sascha Funke, and of course label wner Ellen Allien herself.

Twelve years and counting - Ellen Allien has been steering her BPitch Control vessel across the rough seas of the music industry for well over a decade now, exploring and defining a playful, pop-oriented side of Berlin techno with an unerring sense of direction.
The programmatically titled 'Werkschau' is first and foremost a statement - the BPitch Control imprint has withstood all changes and transitions, and its current roster of artists, from mainstays like Sascha Funke and Zander VT to new talents like We Love and Aérea Negrot, is perhaps the most coherent and homogeneous one in the label's history.
The compilation opens with newcomer Cormac's 'The Present', a classic BPitch track in its combination of melodic house music and slightly absurd vocals. Ellen Allien follows this up with her own contribution, the organ-grinding 'The Kiss', which should easily prove one of the album's DJ favourites.
Further highlights include Sascha Funke's deep and moody 'Hiddensee' and Paul Kalkbrenner's sentimental folk techno contribution, 'Plätscher'. DJs will be drawn to deep club-ready tracks by Chaim, Mark Broom, and Thomas Muller, while BPitch's more adventurous side is covered by AGF/Delay and Jahcoozi.
Offering 17 unreleased tracks by some of electronic music's finest artists, 'Werkschau' is a remarkable display of creative prowess and shouldn't be missed at any cost.
