Infections of a Different Kind (Step 1) was described as a pop, electropop and art pop record, though it also features elements of synth-pop, chamber pop, folk, experimental pop, and futurepop. Aurora enlisted producers Askjell Solstrand, Jakwob, Couros and MyRiot, aside previous collaborators Magnus Skylstad and Electric. Originally a full-length album, she created the EP as the first part of a two-part album, the second part being her second album A Different Kind of Human (Step 2) (2019). Following the release of her debut album All My Demons Greeting Me as a Friend (2016), Aurora embarked on a world tour her experience with her fans inspired her to work on a new record. It was released digitally on 28 September 2018 and physically on 1 November 2019 by Decca and Glassnote Records.


Infections of a Different Kind (Step 1) is the second extended play (EP) by Norwegian singer-songwriter and record producer Aurora.
