Elena E Il Gatto marks Alberto Radius's shift towards the popular electronic sounds of the mid-1980s.
The album trades the heavier, progressive rock style of his earlier works for a sound dominated by synths and crisp keyboard arrangements. While Radius's guitar remains, it is notably more polished and restrained, fitting the synth-pop era.
Critics often viewed it as less cohesive than its predecessors, sometimes described as a "patchwork" of new ideas, but it showcases the artist's versatility in adapting to the changing musical landscape of the decade. It is a solid, clean-sounding snapshot of Italian electronic rock from 1985.
