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.

Stefan Grainger, a DJ to keep your eyes on, is a multi genre artist of obvious talent whose sets of house, trance and hard house are bursting with the best of classic, upfront, and often unreleased tracks. 

Throughout his 30 years as both a producer and DJ, Paul King has been responsible for anthem after anthem and floor filler after floor filler.
From his early releases such as “Elevate” on Jump Wax and “Kick it in” on TDV, right through to the more recent “What ya got” on Vicious and “Turn it up” on Toolbox, Paul’s productions have always been in a league of their own. To say Paul King had his own style just wouldn’t be fitting enough, as Paul created a whole new sound that has now been loved by hard house fans for well over a decade.
It was in the 90’s that Paul first burst onto the scene and was immediately taken under the wing of the late Tony de Vit, who instantly branded Paul “one to watch” for his fresh and innovative productions. With the support of Tony and every other influential Hard House DJ on the circuit, Paul soon became a regular name on the two record labels that were THE labels to be seen on, Tripoli and Tidy Trax. On Tripoli he gave us his F1 productions and on Tidy he delivered his fiercer than fierce Trauma releases… It was under these production names that Paul dominated the scene and became an inspiration to many.
His discography reads like an A to Z hard house bible, with remixes and releases on almost every major hard house dedicated label… these include the already mentioned Tidy, Tripoli, Toolbox and Vicious, along with labels old and new such as Trade, Deprivation, Knuckleheadz, TEC, Short Circuit, Flashpoint and Chug N Bump to name just a few.
His label Electrotek saw him move his style to Electro and Tech House, and was instantly recognised as the new “Paul King Sound”. His remixes of Armand Van Heldans “New York City Beat” and Fedde Le Grande’s “Put Your Hands Up For Detroit” were released on their respective labels to wide acclaim.
On the hard house side, he continued to push his sound further, releasing Trauma Trax 3, Trauma Trax Remixed, and Digital Frontiers. On the 20th anniversary of his first release on TDV, and the 25th anniversary of his DJing career, Paul worked closely with Vicious Circle to release “Odyssey – The complete Paul King collection”, a collection of more than 200 tracks that covered his entire career up to that point.
Then, on the 20th anniversary of his first Trauma release on Tidy, Paul released Trauma XX Part 1. An album of new material, where, once again Paul collaborated with producers and DJs that he admired.
Bringing the story up to date, this year sees the release of Trauma XX Part 2 - the album has 10 DJ friendly tracks and features collaborations with Rob Tissera, Aaron James & Seanie Jackson, Frank Farrell, High Dosage, Eamonn Fevah, Dawn Lee, Craig Jones, Ilogik, James Nardi, Steve Hill and Technikal.
