With a hefty approach to house music, the Kondo project screams an avid passion for dance floor synergy. From simmering, late summer days to festivals icons, he’s bringing out all the stops with an abundance of catalogue additions ready to deliver to the masses in the upcoming times. Owning current remixes like Mark Maxwell & Apollo’s ‘Underground Vibe’ in the top 10 ARIA chart, Kondo has primed his sound for core house and tech house enthusiasts while resonating with the tastemakers from Green Velvet and Michael Bibi to Solardo and homegrown hero Fisher.
 
Signed to Vicious Records, the Kondo original output is solid with eminent heaters ‘Put The Needle’ and ‘Grade-A’ soon to be dropped on the label, while the remix requests are coming in heavy. In recent times, the Kondo edit of Nick Coleman’s ‘Faces of Meth grasped top 20 ranking on the ARIA charts, while another edit in ‘Be My Camera’ from Mind Electric has landed within the top 10 of the inaugural Australian ranking.
 
Taking a slew of music straight to the stage, Kondo has spent his time curating his signature house and tech house hues, delivering absolute heaters to electronic music devotees and keeping it loose as all hell. Gracing festival stages from Circus Paradise, alongside Dom Dolla, Motez, Charlotte De Witte to the highly anticipated shows coming into the summer across Australia and New Zealand, Kondo is taking his four to the floor mastery to the masses, with sure-fire chaos.
