Contech is a South African DJ and selector known for his unpredictable sets and deep-rooted passion for underground electronic music. His love for music began at a young age, dancing in the living room with his grandfather to Elvis Presley records. It wasn’t just the sound that captivated him — it was the energy, showmanship, and emotion that came through every performance.
As he grew older, Contech explored a wide range of genres before finding his true connection in electronic music — especially techno, house, minimal, and breaks. In 2019, he began DJing from his bedroom, driven by the desire to share a sound that was distinct from everything around him.
During the COVID-19 lockdown, he took the opportunity to dive deep into his craft. By 2021, he landed his first booking at Ultra Rocca Bar, which quickly led to more club shows and a residency at the iconic Origin Nightclub. Since then, Contech has played at some of South Africa’s most exciting stages, including Splashy Fen and Elisium Festival, both known for spotlighting diverse, cutting-edge talent. In 2025, he was welcomed as a resident for Curates, a brand dedicated to raw, underground soundscapes.
Contech’s sets are built to surprise — filled with textures, rhythms, and selections that defy expectations. Whether in a dark club or on a festival stage, he brings an energy rooted in emotion, performance, and a fearless desire to challenge the crowd with something new.
