Steve Kelley

London, UK

Groove and melody over a deep, chunky house bed, worked out across almost twenty years. Resident at Godskitchen from 1997 and touring with the brand, then a Passion Redroom residency alongside Roger Sanchez, Danny Rampling, David Morales and Erick Morillo. Back home he built Tantalise presents Palava, a monthly terrace party that ran a decade and pulled people the length of the country. Production came later and was picked up fast — Steve Bug's Poker Flat, Nurvous, Little Helpers and Platform 7even among them — while his own Celestial Recordings reached its tenth year in 2020.
