Rated 4/5
Review by Jarren Nov 19, 2007
It seems surprising to us all that this was actually the first Miss Kittin solo album, such has been her presence in the electro scene for 10 years now.

But, indeed, this is her debut album. And it is fantastic.

She really opens her ideas here, so we are not just treated to the sexy Kittin we know and love from 1982, Silver Screen, Rippin Kittin et al but also to a deeper, more reflective side of the woman.

She is punk as much as she is electro, and the songs here don't so much push that fact as to gently remind us of it.

Professional Distortion is a classic, and Requiem For A Hit is sheer brilliance. LFO made a lethal remix of Requiem, managing to meld Kittin's vocals to an old school "Energy Flash" meets brutal Belgian Techno sound.

Also, a big mention has to go to the Hacker collaboration Soundtrack Of Now. A match made in heaven as always.

Check this album out...

i think the album is good. altrough it is very similar to the style of ellen allien (dubs are very similar to the album stadtkind sometimes). what isn't a problem in my opinion, because kittin varies with the tracks. its like ellen allien, but not a copy. she shows too that she has good vocals too... from hiphop over techno to pop with lots of electro & ambient influence. and electroclash too.
Rated 4/5

I com still has the well known Miss Kittin electro and electroclash style, but also adventures into some click, ambient, and even jazzy swing moods.
