Koji Kondo - Gerudo Valley (Crowd Controlol Rework)

Crowd Controlol (pronounced Crowd Control) is the main recording and performance identity for Anthony Salce, a South Florida-based electronic music producer who's established a purpose to create something remarkably fresh in the electronic music world. Merging two decades of classical training on the violin with the tools of modern technology, his take on music stems deeply from its effects on the human mind and body. This interpretation ranges from warm connotations of dancefloor driven house music, to sonic experiments in deeper, melodic and minimal grooves.

Crowd Controlol’s first ever vinyl release “Science Ficiton” on Still Play Records reached #1 worldwide on Deejay.de in Decemeber 2018, the most popular online vinyl store for underground music. The multi-genre EP featured Minimal, Deep House, Tech House, and Techno sounds. Simultaneously, his digital productions and remixes have been continuously well received, with regular releases on global record labels like Whoyostro, Innocent Music, Baile Musik, Draft, Patent Skillz, SK Supreme Records, Ritmik Records, Beatdown Music, and Low Groove Records.

Crowd Controlol left his first mark on the city of Miami during his debut residency in 2012 at a bimonthly party known as “One Night in Miami” with afterhours sunrise sets held early Saturday mornings on The Terrace at Club Space. Known for bouncy, yet dark and provocative DJ sets, he inspired a new generation of underground music advocates to appreciate the more intricate and sophisticated elements of electronic music. His sets created a different appreciation for four-on-the-floor rhythm amongst his friends, naturally encouraging his peers to steer away from what they hear on the radio, and appreciate the innovative qualities of house and techno music.

Beginning his travels to Ibiza, Spain in the summer of 2013 and joining forces with Richie Hawtin and the ENTER. team in Public Relations, Anthony continued to develop his sound as Crowd Controlol while maintaining a forward thinking approach to artistry. Working a total of 3 seasons with ENTER on the island, his working relationship with Hawtin evolved beyond Ibiza and resulted in an invitation to be part of the CNTRL 2.0 tour in 2015, an educational initiative which sprung throughout college campuses in North America with artists like Chris Liebing, Dubfire, Matador, Victor Calderone, and more. Upon forging valuable relationships and discovering a world of new music, this experience has become an integral part of his development as an artist.

More recently, Crowd Controlol has showcased his sound in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Ljubljana, London, Ibiza, Playa del Carmen, Madrid, Ibiza, and New York City with regular appearances in Miami and around Florida. He’s shared some of the largest stages in dance music over his 12 year career with many of the most important artists in electronic music like Nicole Moudaber, Umek, Matthias Tanzmann, Chus & Ceballos, Riva Starr, Nathan Barato, and Carl Cox, performing at the world renowned Space Ibiza in its final season. More committed than ever to a focused development of his sound with ambitious production sessions and intriguing live performances, he’s truly dedicated to an upbeat and hypnotizing dancefloor experience, as his music emerges on imprints around the world.
