Ellen King is an Irish multidisciplinary composer, producer and DJ based in Berlin, Germany. Writing and performing music under her own name and ‘ELLLL’ moniker, Ellen has carved out a distinctive voice in both contemporary and club-music contexts, with compositions etched by abstract experimentalism, fragmented rhythms and bass-heavy club. 


From shimmering melodies and gliding breakbeats to left-field, icy, percussive drum tracks and cinematic ambient, Ellen has released several EPs showing the breadth of her talents as a producer. Labels include Paralaxe Editions (ES), Glacial Industrials (IE), and First Second Label (IE).


Beyond club music, Ellen has worked extensively as a multidisciplinary artist for projects across visual, film, installation, dance and performance art. Recent works include sound design and score for theatre production Das Ereignis, Deutsches SchauSpielHaus Hamburg and Images & Sensations, an ensemble work commissioned by Ireland’s leading new music ensemble, Crash Ensemble.


As a founding member of Ireland's first fem-electronic music collective Gash Collective, Ellen has advocated for diversity and visibility within the music scene. Through workshops and masterclasses she has facilitated female, queer and non-binary participation in the DJ circuit. She has taught numerous workshops on music technology and DJing, lectured at many universities and spoken at conferences and panels worldwide such as the Embassy of Ireland, Berlin, CTM Festival, Berlin, MUTEK festival, Tokyo, and Redbull Music Academy, Dublin.
