Every track on this album is an A+, except for "Who Pays The Bill." Can anyone get into that one? It seems like it doesn’t fit at all in the album. Cool My Fire (I’m Burning) is my absolute favorite. The vocals confused me at first because of the German accent (I forgot to mention the vocals are in English). Both Adam and Sara (a person you don't know) can attest: at first I thought she was saying “don’t read about my design gallery”, but she obviously says “don’t read about my desire”. I pray to Allah that my hearing isn’t failing me! Oh, and another groovy track is Cool My Fire. The beginning sounds like something from the Legend of Dragoon (Playstation I).

HEY HEY HEY, MEINE UBER FRAU! Another appropriate shout-out from ICDT to all the spinning females! MORE RESPECT TO YA!
Ada is another gorgeous gal from Deutschland, like Ellen Alien, who produces vocal/poppy electronix. Her album, Blondie is a mixture of glitchy minimal and melodic techno. The beats are very simple and contain all the elements of a techno cliché, except for the glitch (reminds me of Gameboy sounds), which makes them worth while. Also, all the beats have the snare on the 2 and 4, high hat on the “&”, and bass on all counts, making this album very easy to dance to. The album contains two amazing covers: Everything But The Girl’s "Each & Everyone," and The Yeah Yeah Yeah’s "Maps."

Its cool to see this being posted, its one of my favorite albums of the 2000's. Her mix from last year, adapatations, is really good too.
Pretty much agree with mailman. Blondie is an all time favorite for me too, since its release. A very unique blend of House, Techno and Pop. A must have.
