Anastasia from Spirit EP by Elninodiablo

Sweeping a broad spectrum of emotions, the eight minute-odd ‘Anastasia’ gets the ball rolling on a typically slo-evolving note, just as rich textures and ambience wise, hatching out around its half into a no- frills dancefloor burner - think Nordic minimalism here - whilst preserving Elninodiablo’s trademark touch of rhythmic playfulness and clinical execution intact. With its chaud-froid of sensually phlegmatic vocal lines featuring once again Doroteja (Dorothea’s Rainbow), FX-laden synth-smithery and bassy impact, this one’s an invitation to hold your breath, close your eyes and dance your life away.

el nino diablo’s sound is conceptual and experimental - fusing organic sounds, field recordings, live instrumentation with synths and drum machines. Converging his club and DJing background with meditation techniques, the result is a diverse range - from pieces evoking the vastness of deserts, or the lushness of tropical jungles to tracks that explore emotional landscapes and dream states.
