Desires Presents: E.lina & Monile

About the experience

E.Lina is a multidisciplinary artist from the Ukrainian underground scene, known for her passion for records and her talent as a profound digger. Her journey into DJing began through Hip-Hop culture - freestyle dance, singing, rapping, and crafting beats - before she immersed herself in the world of electronic music. E.Lina's style is eclectic, built on fat sexy bass lines, swinging rhythms, and carefully curated melodies. Whether she's spinning deep house on a sunny beach or dropping hypnotic techno and banging tunes at a night rave, E.Lina skillfully adapts to the vibe of any crowd and environment, making her a true "music chameleon." Her background as a dancer deeply influences her work, giving her sets a natural flow where music and movement become one. With a distinctive energy and sophisticated approach, Elina’s performances are designed to dissolve listeners into the music, encouraging them to close their eyes and escape reality into a dance. From her earliest days, Monile was drawn to electronic music through her older brother; a House, 90’s dance and techno record collector. Her roots originate from a combination of classic music she used to express playing piano, 90’s hip hop, Soul with a touch of funk and disco. On her quest for growth, she is always exploring different genres. Her music reflects a rhythmic compassion for deep grooves and enchanting bass lines all-encompassing a wide range of electronic music styles from old school acid and ghetto house, minimal to Detroit techno and electro. With her broad musical background, her productions and dj-sets incorporate the deep and dub-influenced sound she loves, whilst retaining the driving funk of her musical past. Her love for music is an endless journey to share with the world.
