As Elektroid, Agullo has released a range of limited edition cassette tapes and vinyl records, catering to fans of underground and experimental music.

Agullo's music as Elektroid draws inspiration from the work of artists associated with the British industrial and post-punk movements of the 1970s and 1980s. His compositions often serve as sonic reinterpretations of diverse musical traditions, incorporate elements of noise and distortion, and feature dense, immersive textures. The artistic vision behind Elektroid has garnered interest from fans of avant-garde and experimental electronic music.

Reviews and assessments of Elektroid's work have focused on the project's technical innovation, sonic complexity, and Agullo's willingness to push the boundaries of electronic music. Critics often acknowledge Elektroid's contributions to the realm of experimental production, incorporating elements of drone, ambient, and noise into a distinctive and imaginative sonic framework.
