Ela Minus, has been nominated for a 2025 Latin GRAMMY® Award: QQQQ for Best Latin Electronic Music Performance. Released earlier this year Ela’s sophmore album, DÍA, is a rarified feat in electronic music, where cutting-edge production and space-shuddering sonics meet a burgeoning singer/songwriter’s real sense of self-reflection and private reckoning, and as person and producer than ever before. The album was mixed by Marta Salogni and mastered by Heba Kadry.

Synth History’s first ever in-depth video documentary, Synth History: Ela Minus, is now available to watch. Directed by Synth History founder Danz CM, the debut episode of this new series is an intimate look at Ela’s story and the making and inspirations behind DÍA. Coinciding with the series’ release, Ela and Danz will host screenings on October 21st in New York City at The Roxy Cinema and on October 26th in Chicago at The Music Box Theater as part of Synth History’s Iconic Scores.

Danz comments: “Couldn’t be more excited that the first ever Synth History documentary is on Ela Minus! It was fun to nerd out about synths for the day. We shot the whole thing on 16mm film and MiniDV, staying true to the Synth History aesthetic. We wanted to make it feel kinetic and fun and different from your traditional music doc!”
