Race to the Surface

As a resident DJ of Ottawa Prog Vibes based in Ottawa, Canada, Steve plays at several of the city’s best venues and has shared the decks with some of the world’s finest Progressive House DJs and producers.

Steve has been listening to electronic music since the 1990's - sucked in by the hard sounds of early rave, and the euphoric sounds of trance. These sounds still permeate through on the tracks he selects and listens to today.

From uplifting and groovy organic house to the deeper side of Progressive sounds, Steve’s sets flow through lush atmospheres, hypnotic grooves, and driving rhythms. It’s all about emotion, connection, and energy.

Keep it simple.

Born to American parents in Rome, Italy in 1986 and raised in the USA, he came to New York City at age seventeen. Working alongside art, nightlife, and entertainment industry legends, he soon became a staple to the city that never sleeps. His mixes and appearances are enjoyed internationally with streams in over 100 countries worldwide, and popularity in nightlife bringing him attention from many sides of the industry, such as being named one of HX Magazine's 'Top 9 people in nightlife under the age of 25 to watch in 2009', which featured him on the cover, and receiving seven nightlife award nominations, winning two. He was named one of Paper Magazine’s Beautiful People and his parties have been labeled 'Best of New York' by New York Magazine on multiple occasions. DNA Magazine (Australia) called PONY 'NYC's Hottest DJ'. 

In 2012 he started spinning for Burning Man art collective Disorient. Later in 2012, he became the resident DJ and founding member of the monthly theme event series I FEEL. In 2014, they started another monthly event, Thank You for Being You (#TY4BY), as well as an annual immersive weekend residency on the island of Isla Mujeres, Mexico. In 2015 they launched an annual summer festival in upstate New York. He parted ways with his I FEEL collaborators in 2017. From 2015 to 2017, he was co-creator and resident DJ for the event series Treetops. In 2017 he also created a four-part series called Outsiders, which was an instant hit.

In 2019 he was resident DJ and co-creator of the event series The Party. During the venue closures of the worldwide pandemic of 2020, he created the ‘expressions’ mix series on SoundCloud to feature local and international talent on his online channels and keep the music playing. In 2021, he produced and played a solo event series called Gateway. He curated his private social group The Stable from 2021 to 2023. After fifteen years of nonstop performing, PONY retired from playing shows in 2022 but continues to release his sets online. His most recent private social curation project, The Spirit Society, launched in 2024. 

Having done well over two thousand events in his nearly two decades as a DJ and social curator, his experience has taken him from the downtown bars to chic hotel lounges, clubs, rooftops, beaches, warehouses, boats, and everywhere in between producing events and playing alongside some of the top DJs and scene makers. No matter the venue, his unique style and thoughtful selection are guaranteed to take the dance floor on a magical journey of sound. Drawing from a diverse range of musical and visual art influences, PONY combines a passion for music and people with a dynamic personality.

Encyclopedia was founded in 2021. Since its creation, the artistic direction has been driven by the design and creation of visual and musical supports.

Encyclopedia also deploys a wide range of artistic interventions, which aim to share the different facets and singularities of our concept. Initially, the ARAWAK project is part of this dynamic and made it possible to set up the first electronic digital festival, in collaboration with Bianco Vargas dj living in Brazil, with whom we had been working since the first season.
