Introducing STEINGOLD, the LA-based electronic music producer who honed his skills in the legendary Detroit Techno and Hip Hop scenes of the 90s and 2000s.

Having partnered with none other than Mike D (Beastie Boys) and toured the world DJing at major festivals, STEINGOLD is now ready to unleash his highly anticipated solo project, the ELEVATE EP.

With a track record of successful collaborative releases on labels like Stones Throw, Visionquest, and House of EFunk, the ELEVATE EP marks a significant milestone for STEINGOLD, as it showcases his skills as a solo artist. The EP features an all-star lineup of collaborators, including rising star Byron The Aquarius, and legendary Chicago House producer Mike Dunn, who both lend their expert touch to remix the title track, "ELEVATE."

But that's just the beginning. "THEY LIVE" is a moody electro tune that features Elton John's touring keyboard player, Kim Bullard, and Charlie Wilson's (Gap Band) trumpet player Brandyn Phillips. STEINGOLD samples his neighbors cheering on essential workers during COVID lockdowns, adding a powerful and emotional dimension to the track.

The ELEVATE EP is a heartfelt journey through STEINGOLD's Detroit roots and influences in electronic music and rap. The title track, "ELEVATE," was created as a modern Hip House track, with STEINGOLD and Nate Husser (+1 Records) having a conversation about Booty music before jumping into the booth, and recorded before the current trend of Rap/R&B and House.

"HBF" is a slapping house jam that pays homage to Kevin Saunderson's "Inner City". All tracks on the EP were started during the COVID lockdown and finished at Owl Foot Ranch Studios in Tarzana, CA and features additional production by Jean-Michel LaPointe.

In short, the ELEVATE EP is a must-listen for fans of electronic music and rap alike. With its impressive lineup of collaborators, powerful emotional undertones, and expertly crafted beats, it's sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners.
