Digging Deeper with Donatello
Donatello‘s music has received praise not only from progressive house music fans in his home country of Lithuania, but from those around the world and international DJ peers the likes of UK producer Clive Henry, who has stated “Amounts of enthusiasm and uncontrollable energy exuding from his sets remind me about beginning of my own career. He has EVERY trait needed for a DJ. I mean – an impressive DJ”
Donatello was hand picked to represent the best promoters’ agency in Lithuania, ATARI. This resulted in Donatello becoming an unofficial resident of the ATARI ORIGINAL nights at club Galaxy, in Vilniusm, sharing the stage with Booka Shade, Maceo Plex, John Digweed and others in front of a packed club with over 1,500 clubbers and music enthusiasts. Moreover, he has kept busy playing Kaunas’ EXIT club, awarded as the best club of Lithuania twice, all the while continuing to perfect his burning mixture of deep, tech and progressive sounds, getting play time in countries throughout Europe and the U.S.
This week he is releasing his Futura EP on Chicago’s Vested imprint, complete with Rise And Fall Remix. We took the chance to speak to him ahead of the release, which officially drops tomorrow but is available for pre-order on Beatport now.
