Steve Bug - Tracks & Remixes

Steve Bug has been back in the bunker, tweaking the dials and flirting with the faders on two new cuts for Rejected.

Having previously brought us Together with his Flying Keys and Raving Butterflies, the Poker flat mastermind serves up a double dose of House magic, with both cuts exhibiting the signature warmth and analogue depth that define Bug's productions.

Lead track, 'Tweak It (Like This)', pulsates with a solid groove that is driven by its fidgety acid line and lively piano punctuation. Whereas 'The Red Panda,' on the flip, charts amore uplifting course, propelled by emotive basslines and shimmering keys. Both tracks, whilst distinctly different, exhibit Steve's infectious rhythms and timeless grooves. Making them essentials for the dancefloor.

The final installment of the Under One Roof series hands over the reins to T. Nguyen and Ross Gott.  

T. Nguyen enlists the vocal talents of Jade PraiZe with Prophetic Love, which mixes a breaky house vibe with samples and PraiZe’s vocals to masterful effect. 

Label head Steve Bug adds his take to the track with his Way Back Mix - a 808 heavy rework that further accentuates the rave influences of the original. 

Last up, Ross Gott’s Uptown Violets Are Blue closes out the EP and the series with a fine slice of underground, attitude-rich house.

New on Sublease is label boss Steve Bug teaming up with Hervé Solar, an emerging talent from Geneva whose debut was featured on Poker Flat’s Under One Roof series previously. 

The two artists first crossed paths at the Mixmasters retreat in Ibiza, where Hervé participated as a student under the guidance of Steve Bug. Impressed by Hervé's material, Steve Bug saw potential for collaboration. Upon returning to Geneva, Hervé sent Steve a few unfinished tracks, sparking the idea for a joint EP. The creative process involved each artist sending a track for the other to complete, with Steve Bug adding the final touches in his Berlin studio.

No Faith, No Dreams highlights a slinky, sexy sound that will instanty win over other DJs and crowds, and is also shared here via a remix courtesy of Jürgen Kirsch. His rework is a little tougher, stripping the sound down to its essentials before bringing up the energy with a dubby bassline and intricate percussion. 

Swamp Frog is the 3rd track of the release, a grooving bassline providing the anchor for the rhythm and detuned chords that lend the whole thing a wonky, loose feel for the heads.

New from @Pornbugs on Sublease is the M 9.12.4. EP - four tracks of tough and groovy deep house from the Bondage Music label heads. This is the second outing on Steven Bug’s Sublease, and the pair get the man himself to flip the title track here.

The original M 9.12.4. is a groove heavy, spacey piece of house music with a thick sub bass and trippy synths, while Steve Bug’s version takes it in a more techy direction.

Additionally, No Denying is a rolling slow burner that grows and grows, while Oblivion completes the EP with more heads-down house full of atmosphere and intent.

Bug, celebrated for his innovative approach to house and techno music, has stamped his name on top labels like Bedrock, Cocoon, and Knee Deep In Sound, plus his own Poker Flat label and its latest sublabel, Sublease Music, focusing on club-ready, tracky beats.

In ‘Moments Later’, the duo delves into sonic soundscapes, with shimmering synth lines and suspenseful peaks guiding you through an immersive journey that plunges into the depths of the late night.

Following on from No Faith, No Dreams in August 2024 Steve Bug & Hervé Solar team up once again for their new EP Lift Off, presenting three tasty tracks of deep, techy house music on Sublease.

Unfussy brings a more heads down approach, with bubbling bass and propulsive rhythm section creating the mood. 

Eventualities rounds off the EP with deep house chords, a funky bassline and dubby, acid tinged synths and FX.

Steve Bug reappears on his iconic Poker Flat imprint, sharing production duties with longtime collaborator Huxley once more. 

Come On is a tight, old-skool referencing house track built around a ravey vocal sample, a classic chord progression and tight, funky drum programming. 

Clearly deeply infatuated with the early days of US house, the original is all vibe. 

UK based house producer CASSIMM contributes a remix, that leans into the old skool vibe but adds layers that are more techier and driving.  


The shimmering synth stabs and effects add a new dimension to the track - a more streamlined and minimal aesthetic.

Steve Kelley returns to Sublease Music with “Deep Inside,” a sleek two-tracker that distills his signature blend of groove, melody and deep, chunky house into a focused dancefloor statement. 

The title cut is a deep and driving house workout with hypnotic grooves, warm textures and a smooth, rolling low end built for the late hours, while Steve Bug’s remix tightens the screws with punchy drums, rubbery bass pressure, and restrained synth sparkle aimed squarely at peak time. 


“Relax” offsets propulsive drums with lush chords, soulful atmospheres, and luminous hooks, flowing with subtle emotion for a timeless groove that invites you to slow down and lose yourself as the EP closes on a hypnotic, sundown note.
