[KONTROL] is proud to bring the finest in minimal techno and forward-thinking tech-house music to the Bay Area every month, with an emphasis on live performances.
The event was conceived and initiated by Midwest transplant Greg Bird, who enlisted some of San Francisco's most dedicated and knowledgable minimal enthusiasts to support him as resident DJ's: Sammy D, Alland Byallo, Craig Kuna, and Nikola Baytala. Together as a team we work hard to bring the world's best to San Francisco every month, whether it's established veterans of the sound, or up and coming artists who we feel the world should know about.
