Donnacha Costello

from http://www.discogs.com/artist/Donnacha+Costello:

He started writing music in 1989 and discovered minimal electronic music in 1996, becoming well known and respected in his home city of Dublin, Ireland. Having completed his philosophy degree, Costello engaged himself in university studies in music and was introduced to Steve Reich, John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen. In 2000 he began to release 12" singles on his own label Minimise and was signed by Force Inc. for his first album. Growing Up In Public utilizes new digital production and synthesis methods, sampling and dub techniques. This debut album displays a great degree of imagination and experimentation.

i just saw this guy for the first time at demf. it was my second favorite performance of the weekend.

[Thomas D and Jack Thomas]

His set @ Demf was pretty good but the vocals were kinda stupid. Anyway, it was good music and his EPs are very nice.

[kronvik]

These three EPs are great and should be sought out.

My favourites are 6.4 and 6.6
