After 1986's Cantos and 1989's Halflife cassette only releases and a brief 1996 collaboration that saw the birth of ENGRAM with ATTRITION's Martin Bowes, it was 2004 before John Costello recorded 4 new tracks with Geoff Pinckney of TENEK as producer.
and another 9 years before John released the AUTOTRON EP and played his first gig in 24 years at the REPRODUKTION 13 electro festival at London's Roundhouse, joined on stage by Olley on synths & bass and Richard on guitar, a live line up that has flourished with other concerts around the UK.
John's music has been hailed by artists including Tuxedomoon's Blaine L. Reininger and minimal synth legends Xeno & Oaklander,
He is preparing his debut album and DVD for release in early 2015.
