Conendrum is the funky, quirky, psychedelic trance project of multi percussionist Dave Kastner.
Having spent more than half his life studying drums and percussion, playing in jazz, funk and metal bands, and attending doofs since ’97 , he has deep knowledge of grooves and rhythms which when combined with a hyperactive wierd imagination and short attention span creates an ever changing sonic journey with endless flavors.
Able to deliver anything from a mind blowing night time set of full on dark psytrance to masterful morning madness melodies to slower psygressive funk trance containing elements of dark prog, techno, dnb and electronica
Conendrum’s first set was on a beach in summer 2012 and has since performed at a bunch of parties and festivals including Collaborations Festival 2012 ( Cairns ), Indigo Evolution ( NYE 13/14, Byron Bay ), SHROOMED 2012/13/14 ( Tasmania ), Inter-Dimensional Architects 1 ( Newcastle ’13), Bat Feats Begins, Homebrew Beats, The Brainforest, Yemaya Festival 2014, Earthdance Tasmania, Fo Shizzle, Qube and Lucid Labyrinth 2015 (Sydney)
Not content with just pressing play Dave always improvises percussive additions to his tracks by jamming along on an electronic drum or 2 making each set unique and unpredictable.
He has released 2 free ep’s on ektoplazm with Horsepower Productions, Excream Cheese (2012) and Extreme Track Makeover (2014) and will be releasing 2 new albums ( one with Horsepower and the other with Kinematic Records ) in late 2015 so stay tuned for more wierdness
