German DJ and producer Helena Hauff will release her debut album in September this year on Ninja Tune and Werkdiscs.

“I have the feeling it’s more one-to-one – you do something and then the machine reacts. The machine has its own mind too, so it gives something back. Perfection is pretty boring. It doesn’t really exist anyway… only in death. Death is perfect,'' the Hamburg techno producer says.

Ten tracks deep, Discreet Desires is the embodiment of Helena’s deep-seated beliefs about music as a radical force and unifying movement. Something that is evident from her growing stature as a selector and her enthusiasm for musical subcultures from punk to nu wave, industrial, krautrock and avant garde electro - all of which were rooted in raw experimentation and existed in polar opposition to the perfect, polished mainstream.
