At a very early age Stefan developed a passion for dance music but, it wasn't until he was 17 years old, and had discovered an event called Tangled in Manchester, that his passion led him down the road to the DJ booth.  After watching DJ's week in, week out, in awe of what they did and how they did it, he took the plunge and invested in a pair of inexpensive belt drive decks on which he learned the fundamentals of beat matching and mixing.  As the love for trance, house and the harder side of house grew, so did the need to upgrade his setup.  After purchasing a shiny new pair of Technics 1210 mk2's Stefan secured a spot at the School of Sound Recording in Manchester where he learned new skills, and gained valuable insight into promotional management.  After this, he then completed a Radio Production course with Mancat College to further his knowledge of the music business and was a semi-finalist in the National Superstar DJ Competition in 2004.

Soon to follow were gigs at some of the big events of that time, notably, TOAST, SIN:ERGY, PUREFILTH, AFFINITY and FUSED. Also, under the management of Logical DJ Agency, he played regular 5 hour funky house sets at Bar Ca in Manchester.

After an 8 year absence from the scene due to personal reasons, the love for dance music was still there... 2020 saw Stefan return to DJ'ing, but this time using the digital format. Posting regular trance and hard house sets to his SoundCloud, his audience began to grow at a quick rate and he has since featured on Wanted Underground Sounds birthday livestream as well as on JamJam Radio alongside the likes of Lab4 and HTE, where he reached an audience of thousands.  In 2021 he played his first gig for the new hard dance brand Meltdarn in Barnsley, with whom he then went on to secure a residency with. Stefan entered the System Damage DJ competition and came a very commendable 2nd place which secured him a gig at their event in Leicester. Most recently in 2022, Stefan has been playing at gigs up and down the country and went on to secure another residency with a new hard dance brand, Exile Events, playing his first gig for them in Weston-super-Mare along side the likes of Tom Berry, Jason Nawty, General Bounce and many others. Stefan will making his London debut for the Noise Addicts Afterparty in August 2023 and his first collab track 'Alright' with Bass Jumper has recently been signed to Hi-Five Digital due for release in late Summer.
