After gaining work experience in London’s famous Trident Studios, then renamed Audio One, Stevie started his lifelong love of music and continued his obsession with record collecting. Inspired, Stevie wanted to release his own records, so he set up the now legendary Big Bear. This then made way for Bear Entertainment and Bearfunk records, both cemented firmly in the modern disco movement of the early 2000’s. Stevie later joined Dean Meredith & Andy Meecham to become the third member of the mouth-watering Chicken Lips and compiled the seminal DJ Kicks and Clicks, Acid & Disco compilations. He also has a love of all things Italian and compiled the Disco Italia compilation for Strut records. Now his full time focus is on African Road Trip a record label which specialises in releasing out of print rarities from Africa and beyond. As a DJ, Stevie is a revered crate digger who thrives on versatility and searches the globe to find lost gems and share them with his dance floor.
