Day 9: Steve Bug “Summer Nights”
Germany’s minimal dance connoisseur, Steve Bug, started his DJ-career in a small after-hour bar near Ibiza’s Space back in 1991 – soon becoming resident DJ in the best club in his hometown Bremen and booked to major German events such as the Love Parade. Always crossing the bridges between house and techno with relaxed dignity, showing consequently that less can often be more, Steve Bug is soon to be acclaimed minimal tech-house master and one of the few gems of the innovative German electronic house scene.

In his own words:
“Josh and I have a long history… Being a long-time fan of Josh’s productions and the early releases of Ovum, I asked him to do a remix for my ‘Loverboy’ track back in ’99. In 2004, I did a remix for Josh’s ‘516’ acid track released on Ovum, and in the same year, I thought it would be nice to have a full EP out on Ovum as well. So I sent some tracks over that ended up being released in the end of 2004. Soon, the business relationship turned into a friendship.
After that, Josh did an EP for poker flat and we have become even closer and have been playing various gigs together and been inviting each other to Ovum and poker flat label parties around the globe. To continue the story my new EP ‘As it Was’ will be released on Ovum later in fall this year.”
