Biografía

Born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden, Stefan always had something to do with music. At an early age, he began banging on drums, play around on the piano and just mess around with different instruments. He ended up with classic music on the piano at the age of 6. With mostly hip-hop surrounding him, Stefan first got introduced to electronic dance music in 2003, by the age of 12, but didn't get into it by then. However around a year later, mainly surrounded by house maniacs, he got introduced to the early work of people like Tiga, Eric Prydz, Steve Angello and Laidback Luke and more recognized artists by that time such as Armand Van Helden, Moby, Daft Punk and Fatboy Slim among others and was hooked right away The deejaying itself didn't come around until two years later, at 15. Embarrassed by his moves on the dance floor, he wanted to try to control it instead and instantly fell in love. He bought his first set and stood day in and day out in his bedroom playing. Two years after that, in 2008, he had moved to Moscow, Russia, and got the opportunity to play in front of an audience for the first time and it was by then he decided that he wanted to take a step further and make it more than a hobby. After moving back to Stockholm he started to play at friends parties and other locations and a couple of weeks after his 18th birthday he won a dj battle and was praised as an up and comer to keep an eye on. 2009 was a good year for him. With gigs at clubs like Spy Bar, Cafe Opera and F12 among others in Stockholm, he started to build a name and in the beginning of 2010 he got a residency at Spy Bar. It lasted for a couple of months but right after that came another milestone when he teamed up with a friend and started to host nights at Berns 2.35:1. After that he has played at most places in Stockholm and a few around Sweden, also included Extrema Outdoor Norway during the summer of 2010. During the time up to late 2010, Stefan jumped around a lot in genres. After a electro/fidget phase and a big room/progressive phase, he ended up with what he plays at the moment, jumping between groovy techhouse and techno to a more minimalistic sound. He also uses his pseudonym which is built on groovy deep house. In September 2011 he moved back to Moscow for a second time, now focusing on the producing part of his career. it's hard to put Stefan in a specific genre, as most of the stuff sounds completely different from the other, but he is determined to keep his music that way. Currently Stefan is based in Los Angeles, California. Sept 2012
