steve.e!
The ways of the music lovers are often not as unfathomable as it seems. steve.e! s' preference path can be reconstructed in any case quite well. In his home at the Ostesseküste Demmin was there first hip-hop, before he, now moved to Dresden, to drum 'n' bass parties, the sore feet danced. Soon after the first take was - respectively needle on the record. The small, unfortunately deceased Dresden Club Legend L 'houp time was 2006, the first home for his DJ craft that was still all about the snappy breakbeats.
The parties were numerous, larger and more diverse musically as steve.e! Meanwhile internalized Dubstep had - until now his second major musical passion that is reflected clearly in his recent productions. Despite his young age he is already washed thoroughly with some production waters. This is not only the three releases that steve.e! free on jamendo.com out skin, but also be constantly evolving live set. In Uncanny Valley is steve.e! the necessary twist in the Label Sound, as he is responsible as part of the Sub-group Sickness ensures that even Dubstep in Dresden feel at home.

Inspired by the diversity came about the first purchases of musical instruments and made possible 17 years ago, the first live set. Sidney was already rigged areas, mixing classics with analog and digital cutting and arranging Sampels.
1996 came the move to Dresden, and was launched for producing computer-based disco / filter house. Even then, Dj Bonsai joined to his side and could prompt the first record (Good Beat Records) will be published. A good team opened
making, bonsai and Sydney 12 years ago their first record store - in Melting Point (later Fonic Recordstore) Dresden. Only a year later, the establishment of the label Melted Recordings. When the record store was abandoned, made Sidney a few years break. Since that year, tingling in the fingers back and the ears hangs loosely - purely digitally produced music is on the agenda and a new pressure plate was needed.
