Steffi
On the dancefloor and beyond, Steffi is like a swan gliding to her own tune, avoiding superstar DJ trappings, going for quality over quantity.
In this week’s Lost and Sound, the Dutch selector and producer has a flowy conversation with Paul where she talks openly about the intuition and creativity that has been a hallmark of her style from her early days DJing in The Netherlands of the 90s to being one of the only DJs equally at home in both Panaroma Bar and Berghain.
She’s just released her fourth studio album, The Red Hunter, released on her own Candy Mountain label, her most personal and intricate record yet.
