Elninodiablo – Infinitely Venus EP

Injecting further exhilarating levels of joy and bounce into his blends, the Berlin- based producer treats us to a smörgåsbord of club-optimized groovers in ‘Infinitely Venus’. Pumped-up and ready for the dancefloor, Elninodiablo turns in a flavourful and playful joint as his debut release for NEIN Records.

VHS glitch, space disco-ey vocoder, en-vogue trap rhythms

A quartet of feelgood chuggers designed to contrast with the bleak state of the world as we experience it, ‘Infinitely Venus’ draws deep into the late 70s / early 80s period with its fun-loving mix of VHS glitch, space disco-ey vocoder, en-vogue trap rhythms and cleverly collaged film samples. Coming off unfiltered and unbothered by the limitative genre segmentation, this ufologic new package from Elninodiablo takes all the good, joyful stuff and bends it into a wholly new effusive object, freed from normative standards and boring etiquette.

All newbeat drums and frantic cowbells blazing, ‘Infinitely Venus’ conjures up the finest of The Asphodells’ spaced-out mindset and that propulsive EBM thrust to have you lifted off to tropospheric heights in a flash. A flickering tapestry of mutant textures and envelopes floating in zero-G motion as bass arpeggios lead the charge, here’s one hybrid roller for the transitional hours of the day, when night fades into day and day fades into night.

Gone Gollywood

Churning out a further shape-shifting grid of drum-laden punch, rhythmic intricacies and overly erotic breath, ‘Gone Gollywood’ is just as soulful as it is outrageously fun and sexy. Here, Elninodiablo’s 360 vision flourishes in all its unhindered exuberance and restless oomph. Draped in layers of Kraftwerk-esque vocoded talk, processed seesaw and sticky analogue squelch, ‘Acid Girl’ feels like a lucid dream turned robotic floor anthem, and it shall not only get droids to boogie down.

Jellyfish Albino

Back to a further cosmic jazz-minded buildup and Weatherallian headspace, ‘Jellyfish Albino’ puts on the afterburners and flies us off to distant, uncharted musical lands, where Afrofunk-informed percussions, bleached-out motorik and viscous Cali-funk synth vibrations reign supreme and topped off with an electro twist.
