[KONTROL] feat. Donnacha Costello

[KONTROL]
“Well…that’s enough. Fuck it.” To anyone paying
attention, those words will instantly bring to mind one of the most unique and memorable techno tracks of last year. The man behind it is Dublin’s Donnacha Costello, who has been producing for over a decade but really came into the international spotlight in 2004 with the release of his acclaimed “Colorseries”, a monthly sequence of 10 color-coded EP’s created using entirely analog gear and released on his own Minimise label. Influenced by minimal pioneers like Mike Ink, Plastikman, and Basic Channel, Donnacha creates warm, dubby techno that intoxicates the mind as it compels the body to move.
After witnessing his stirring live PA at the 2006 DEMF, we knew we needed to bring him out to SF, but in the nearly two years since, he’s been nowhere near these parts. Tired of waiting, this month we’ve finally decided to say “fuck it” ourselves and fly him over for an exclusive North American appearance you definitely won’t want to miss.
