Today’s video of the day is Esplendor Geométrico – “Neuridina” released in 1986.
Esplendor Geométrico, the avant-garde Spanish industrial powerhouse, took the music scene by storm in the early ’80s. Founded by Arturo Lanz, Gabriel Riaza, and Juan Carlos Sastre, the band embraced the sonic extremities of industrial music, forging a unique path.
In 1986, they released “Neuridina,” a track that encapsulated their sonic evolution, and it was featured on their album “Mekano-Turbo.” This album was a pivotal moment in their discography, as it marked a departure from their earlier sound, delving into more rhythmic and electronic territories.
Esplendor Geométrico’s journey has seen them continually reinvent their sound and style. “Mekano-Turbo,” where “Neuridina” resides, is an exemplar of their sonic experimentation. The album stands as a bridge between their raw, noise-laden beginnings and their later, more rhythm-driven compositions.
“Neuridina” is a relentless onslaught of metallic beats and hypnotic loops, showcasing the band’s mastery of rhythmic precision. It’s a testament to their ability to create industrial soundscapes that are as harsh as they are mesmerizing.
