It's unusual for an artist's first releases to be acknowledged and played by Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, Dubfire, Adam Beyer, Marco Carola and many other Top DJs.

Then again, Stiv Hey isn't your usual artist.

Hailing from Milan, Stiv quickly became an authority in electronic music, spearheading the next generation of music leaders. 

Approaching the genre with a contemporary edge, Stiv started with a dark minimal techno style and then move to a more punchy melodic techno and then a more groove based tech house Latin style.

Stiv has begun to see sold-out performances on an international scale since the very beginning of his career becoming an international Dj at the age of 20.

During his tours from Russia to USA to and South America, Stiv completely jammed every single club where he played and he closed every single show with a long applause from the crowd.

Turning to Asia, Stiv has intensively toured countries like China and India with incredible success. Thanks to this he is building an establishment of a fan base in the Eastern Hemisphere.

In Europe Stiv has already achieved a strong support in countries like Romania, Bulgaria, Spain and Uk.

Relocated to Barcelona, Stiv played his debut party in the city in front of a 3000 people crowd, making a memorable performance and got a residency at one of the best party intown named “The Home”.

2020 has been an extremely prolific year for Stiv, having him nominated by Beatport as one of the TOP 3 Techno artists with
the biggest growth during the year.

In fact he has been releasing on the top labels in the market such as Unrilis, Tronic, Octopus and Set About.

Pretty much all of Stiv 2020’s releases reached the Beatport Top 100, with highlights on “Mi Dica” #3 in the Techno Chart and #51 in the Overall Chart, “Hyperion” #7 in the Techno Chart, “Engage” #17 in the Techno Chart and positioning Stiv in the TOP 30 artists which sold most tracks on Beatport during 2020.

Some of the biggest names on the scene showed love and support to Stiv’s music during 2020.

It looks like Adam Beyer is really in love with Stiv’s new groovy techno style, as he’s been playing pretty much all of Stiv’s tracks released in 2020. 

Just to name a few: “Mi Dica”, “Engage”, “Repulsar” have all been found in Drumcode Radio shows played by Adam and have been included in Adam’s charts.

Carl Cox played and charted “Engage” as well, together with many other dj’s.

2021 was a transitional year for Stiv as he has made a slightly shift of his musical style, combining epic melodies with his signature techno grooves and taking his music to a completely different level.

The last EP’s on Octopus, Form and Set About anticipated this musical transition and the right now Techno fans have their eyes pointed on Stiv’s new releases.

At the beginning of 2022 Stiv started to feel ready for a big change, he was looking for a more groove and less dark music style, so like the old time Stiv spend almost two researching a new signature sound coming out of his comfort zone and developing a new Tech House sounds clubbers and djs are going crazy about.

His new music was played many times in Ibiza during the 2023 season receiving supports from Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, Joseph Capriati, The Martinez Brothers just to name a few.

In 2024 the new Stiv Hey is ready to be launched with a renovated sound, new branding and a great world tour planned.

HEY! Brand is also on is way to be launched to the public after almost two years of work behind the scene.

East or West, Stiv Hey is an ascending figure in the techno and tech house landscape. 

Keep en eye on him for some incredible things coming.

A man who needs little introduction, Southampton born techno legend Alan Fitzpatrick has spent the last decade carving out his musical niche and holding rank in the upper echelons of the underground electronic world. Few artists can claim to have headlined Berghain and also had a hit on daytime BBC Radio 1, but then there aren’t many artists like Alan Fitzpatrick. 

One of the most popular techno DJs in the world, he has rubbed shoulders with the likes of Carl Cox and Adam Beyer for the best part of a decade, performing at the world’s biggest clubs and festivals. Known primarily for his raw hard-edged sound, Alan has developed into one of dance music’s most versatile producers, equally at home putting out techno bangers on Drumcode as he is making disco-infused house anthems, or experimental electronica under his 3STRANGE alias, not to mention his impressive range of collaborations (including CamelPhat, Skream, Sasha, Rebūke and Jamie Jones). 

The We Are The Brave and Apex Faction label don adopts a no nonsense approach to A&R and in 5 short years Alan has welcomed some of Techno’s finest producers to his fold. The Englishman champions the musical output of both established artists and breakthrough alike, accumulating over 50 million Spotify Streams on We Are The Brave records since its inception in 2016. Fast-forward to 2021 and the southern powerhouse shows no sign of slowing down, his passion for music permeating all aspects of his career. The WATB frontman is renowned for curating an evening of exceptional magnitude, having already showcased his roster’s talent at The Warehouse Project, Shine Belfast, SWG3 Glasgow and the infamous Fabric nightclub in London.
