Enola is the new project of French DJ Matthieu Monnin, who used to be part of techno outfit Noirdegout. As Noirdegout they were discovered by Initial Cuts who released 2 superb Eps, “Late Night Cities” and “A Frog on the Beach”.
Now Matthieu is on his own, and he’s found his sound: melodious techno, with strong 90s techno influcences, but with production values of 2009.
The first EP extracted from the album, “Words in a Bottle”, features a wonderful remix by rising star Rodriguez Jr, and the second one, “Lost in Shibuya”, a remix by Swiss deep houser Quarion of Drumpoet Community.
The album is a 10 step journey through techno and electronica, fast beats, strings, downtempo, all based on melodies, all grooving. Enola is a child of the nineties, and was heavily influenced by Laurent Garnier when he discovered techno music. Now he’s digested all these memories and they all came out at once, and they’re all here in this album.
To accompany this release, you will have the chance to see Enola DJ at a club near you. Something you’ll never forget: far from mainstream minimal/electro house highways, Enola is a top class DJ with a very strong sense of communication with his dancefloor, a very carefully chosen playlist, and an amazing mixing ability.
Let the journey begin!
