Tomorrow CYV is lucky enough to host the godfather of digital DJin and the controllerism movement – Ean Golden – at our San Francisco monthly – Bangers & MASH. We’ve been working on this event for quite some time and its gonna be HUUGE !!

Ean’s accomplishments in the DJ industry are world renowned. He introduced the midi-fighter controller in 2009 with industry leading build quality and a ground-breaking mapping. Propelled by Ean’s mind-blowing live perfromances Midi-Fighter was an instant success. He followed up in 2010 with the Novation Dicer which is now the industry standard for digital vinyl djs. One year later Ean worked closely with Native Insturments to bring us a product that literally reinvented digital DJing. Traktor S4 is to digital DJin what the iPhone was to cellphones, hands down the most revolutionary thing to hit the DJ world in the past decade. Traktor S4 has gone on to be the number one selling all-in-one controller in a category it invented. Ean continues to bring us revolutionary product developments through his own djtechtools.com including revamped Midi-Fighter controllers, custom high visibility knobs, and a curated selection of dj accessories – only the best of the best.

His live performance uses a palette of custom controllers: various bass heavy genres are effortlessly blended together into a show that merges art and technology in a meaningful way. Part rock show, part controllerism performance and part dj journey, Ean really puts everything on line at every performance taking it far beyond a traditional dj.
