Elen Payne-
A Berlin-based artist, is the co-owner of Kindcrime Recordings and a relentless night crawler who thrives in the shadowy realms of the underground scene. With a sharp eye for 3D experimentations and chromatic art, Elen is the driving force behind Kindcrime’s aesthetics, infusing it with her distinct goth cyberpunk style and futuristic vision.
Her signature hard-hitting techno with industrial and experimental influences and her powerful stage presence and dynamic mixing have earned her recognition in the underground electronic music scene. Her musical journey is a seamless fusion of technology and emotion, enveloped in a dystopian allure. Elen channels the grit and intensity of cybernetic dreams and neon-lit cityscapes into her sound, crafting a unique auditory experience that blurs the lines between the mechanical
and the organic—a high-voltage ride through Dark Electro, Industrial, and Hardcore, all punctuated by the sci-fi soundscapes and gritty reeces of old-school Neurofunk dnb.
