"In celebration of this highly anticipated album, Elninodiablo is hosting a raucous release party at Lunchbox Candy, his groundbreaking queer night at Kreuzwerk. With an electrifying vibe, a dedicated 2K+ crowd, and unexpected performances, Lunchbox Candy has become a cornerstone of Berlin's underground scene. If you've heard the buzz about it headlining WHOLE Festival or captivating audiences at Sydney Mardi Gras 2026, you know this is where the magic happens."
"This eight-track odyssey delves into a kaleidoscope of dub-infused electronics, soulful warmth, and infectious grooves. Kicking off with 'Purple Hypnotic,' the album immerses you in its hazy landscape before flipping gears with the disco-infused swerve of 'Misteriosa Noche.' Feel the spiritual echoes of Eno and Byrne in 'The Soul Monad,' or ride the spacey vibes of 'Subadrift' as it pulls you into the cosmos of '80s and '90s electronica."
"The groove doesn't let up. From the cheeky disco groove of 'Rodeotheque' to the title track 'The Downey Groove,' a live percussion experience that's pure electric chaos, each track demands movement and reflection. On 'Rise In Dub,' thick basslines and psychedelic sounds create an immersive nocturnal reverie, while the closing track, 'Operator Please!', wraps up the journey with a rich, sine wave embrace."
Elninodiablo released his debut album The Downey Groove on September 19 via El Niño Diablo Music. The album presents an eight-track journey that fuses dub-infused electronics, soulful warmth, disco elements, and live percussion. Recordings originated from spontaneous field captures and laptop-based production, allowing intuition to shape cohesive, emotionally flowing compositions. Tracks range from the hazy opener 'Purple Hypnotic' to disco-tinged 'Misteriosa Noche,' the Eno- and Byrne-tinged 'The Soul Monad,' the spacey 'Subadrift,' and the percussive title track's electric chaos. 'Rise In Dub' emphasizes thick basslines and psychedelic textures, while 'Operator Please!' closes with rich sine-wave harmonies. A release party will be hosted at Lunchbox Candy in Kreuzwerk.
