DJ Steven started DJ-ing professionally in 1990. He got the bug of turntablism from the early stars of hip-hop like Grandmaster Flash, Kool Herc and Afrika Bambaataa. His love for hip-hop took him to the finals of the first Bulgarian DMC championship in 93 where he won the title together with his team Tall, Fat & Small. In 94 they took part in the World finals at the Ministry of Sound, London. The same year DJ Steven was voted best DJ in Bulgaria.
With the rise of house and techno Steven got more and more interested in the even flow of the kick drum. All this plus the pure sound energy of German legends Krafwerk made him spin lots of house & techno music in his sets. But his final turning point came with the release of Sven Vaths seminal tracks LEsperanza, Accident In Paradise and Harlequin: The Beauty and The Beast. In 1997 Steven and a group of friends and DJs started promoting parties under the name of Metropolis which now is the biggest and most influential electronic dance music promoter in Bulgaria.
Metropolis made more than 100 gigs and tours with DJs like John Digweed, Deep Dish, Carl Cox, Sven Vath, Nick Warren, Jeff Mills, Josh Wink, Luke Slater, Space DJ'z, Bob Sinclar, Kevin Saunderson, Carl Craig, Omid 16B, Desyn Masiello, Rowan Blades, Luke Fair, Alex Neri, Smokin' Jo, Chus & Ceballos, Marco Bailey, Misjah, WestBam, Dr Motte, Marco Carola, Chris Liebing, Cristian Varela, Ade Fenton, Ben Sims, Umek & Henrik B to name only few. Steven DJ-ed in Macedonia, Romania, Czech Republic, Turkey, Poland, Berlin Love Parade and London. Now he is resident in the mecca of house music in Sofia - club Chervilo, runs his radioshow and electronic production studio The Clock.
