With the exception of label boss Ellen Allien, artists on Bpitch Control tend to be pale DJ/producers with stubble, mad hair and the occasional pair of trendy specs. Not this time. Dillon is stunning 23-year-old Berliner Dominique Dillon de Byington whose music is more than a match for any studio geek. Dillon’s rustling electronics plink, twitch and occasionally spin out, set apart by a cutesy vocal style and eccentric lyrics that sound a bit like a baby-voiced Kate Bush. From the Bavarian oompah outrageousness of ‘Tip Tapping’ to the dissonance of ‘The Undying Need To Scream’, she also maintains a musical adventurousness that hints at an alt-pop career to come.
