Operating at the intersection of deeper techno, electronica, house and electro, Ste Roberts intricate and beguiling sounds have been fascinating dancers for over two decades now.


A Rinse FM resident for over a decade, he first cut his teeth in the fertile grounds of Leeds in a period when it was experiencing somewhat of a clubbing renaissance. Working behind the counter in Tribe Records, his job allowed him upfront access to the cutting edge of house and techno and he soon made a name for himself as a selector. With a growing reputation as a “DJ’s DJ”, he made teamed up with Jamie Russell and Alex Jones to set up the influential Hypercolour and Glass Table imprints before making his first moves into the production world and releasing his acclaimed debut on the formidable Fear Of Flying imprint, before


Moving to London in 2015, he continued his explorations in the electronic underground, quickly gaining a foothold for himself in the capital. His deep, hypnotic, rhythmic sound won him fans far and wide, with gigs ranging from fabric to Studio 338, The Lion & The Lamb and Dimensions Festival in the years that followed. He set up his own labels  STE and STEDIT labels to give himself no-compromise homes for his production output, gaining the support of many an influential DJ in the process, along with his releases on 20:20 Vision, Holding Hands and Hypercolour. 

“I don't generally have any set start point when it comes to making music” he says. “Whether I’m making an electro track or more of a techno roller, that just kinda develops as I'm tinkering around with hardware. The reality is, I've been music collector for over 20 years now with endless amounts of inspirations throughout the electronic music and dance scene, and without trying to replicate this experience I've had it just comes to me naturally. In my DJ sets I always prefer to take you on a journey, with ups and downs, twists and turns but ultimately educating and exciting my listeners with old and new records. I still play records I picked up when I started out 20 years ago—which even then were already a decade old—along with up and coming cuts, and current rare picks.”


The future looks very busy for Ste as he enters a new purple patch in his career, with releases coming on One Eye Witness, Kassian’s burgeoning Faux Poly label, more on STE & STEDIT and a collaboration with Adam Curtain on their new Adam & Steve imprint. What’s more, he’s launched another new label, Private Parts, to further extrapolate his sounds and to support other like-minded artists, with label showcases in the works at some of the world’s finer nightspots.

Faux Poly kick off 2023 with Eliza, a beautifully detailed and rugged EP by Ste Roberts. Those who know Ste’s productions will be familiar with his signature style of deep, sometimes haunting rhythmic productions that effortlessly maintain a huge presence in any club. This record takes Ste’s music into a new and more intimate personal space whilst staying true to his instantly recognisable sound, blending elements of dark Techno and Electro with a beautifully delicate touch.

“This EP was written and produced at a really unique time of my life as I moved my home studio into a new space due to the birth of our daughter, Eliza. The real life hustle kicked in as my freedom to have a jam when I felt creative had gone. Getting used to a new space and making time count was the new way, and here is the first EP from that time. The EP is called Eliza, because what else could it have been!” - STE Roberts

Premiere: Ste Roberts 'Diego's Mad Hour'

Like a huddle of stony-faced penguins, the slew of suited men and women made their way into the room, settling into their seats as the indistinct chatter slowly fell to silence. What came out of this meeting would decide the fate of many people; people that these largely heatless bunch knew little about, or cared little for. It was a tale as old as time, one that everybody knew like the back of their hand - they were all waiting for a new chapter to be written...

For their first outing of the year, London duo Kassian welcome Hypercolour co-founder and STEDITS boss Ste Roberts to the Faux Poly family. Known for his deep, rhythmic productions on his plethora of labels, and more recently as Adam & Steve alongside pal and Trouble Maker main man Adam Curtain, Ste now takes a more introspective direction on this new outing, in part down to the circumstances it was created in. Made in his brand new studio after his daughter Eliza was born - which is also the name of this new EP - the intricate techno and electro tracks mark a period where he was making each moment count when it came to his creative workflow.
