Stephen Bang
I make electronic music including trance, progressive house, breakbeat, downtempo, ambient, and the very many derivatives. While many of my songs are clearly in one genre or another, my eventual goal is to produce a blend of dance music combined with some british alternative rock, e.g. The Cure, Ride, Lush, and some industrial thrown in for good measure!
