Steve Stein(ski) has been around the block for some time, but has kept his head down more often than not. If you don’t know his story by now, well.. I’m sorry, but you can’t call yourself hip hop. Take off the shelltoes, lose the chains, and go home and tell your mother that you’ve ‘grown out of it’. The good news is that Steve has finally found his way on to the Internet of all things. Steinski.com has gone live, and in it’s infant state contains Steve’s general musings on the big wide world, a hook-up for a couple of mixes by the man himself, an in-depth schooling in the ‘Ralphie’s Bop City’ project (fantastic stuff - totally recommended) and the best method for instant Bootsy Collins look-a-like status.

In other news, Steve will be showing up in various spots worldwide in the next few months to deliver some no-doubt choice sounds and words of wisdom. Continuing his work with the Red Bull Music Academy he will be lecturing in both Germany (city unconfirmed) and Porto, Portgual (go visit sometime - it’s a beautiful city) in March, then moving on to the UK for two dates over the Easter weekend. Friday 6th April sees the Detectives Of Perspective on hosting duties at Timbuk2 in Bristol for the always great Solid Steel club night, and DJ Food will be there to make for some quality Foodski action (not forgetting DK and the DoP residents of course). The following night (7th) will see the Solid Steelski action roll on to London, where everyone will surely be encouraged to get up off their feet and wave their hands in the air like they just don’t care. That, or be told to stop looking at the laptop screens..
