About
Erik came to LA from the upper midwest in '97, and it wasn't long before he was fully immersed in the world of electronic music. With both feet firmly in the underground, he traveled all over California's warehouses, deserts, forests, and anywhere else you can set up a stack of speakers and dance.
Fueled by a long standing love of speakers and electronics, Erik started Stampy Sound in '99 and began stacking up those speakers himself. Watching other people play records soon wasn't enough, and the vinyl started to pile up too. After experimenting in several genres, Erik found the funky basslines of the California deep house and never looked back. The deep, dubby, and soulful sounds fit perfectly with the sun coming up over dusty horizons, and he became a staple of desert mornings.
Years later, Erik is still searching for basslines to move dancefloors. Anything that moves the subwoofers right catches his ear, but funky deep and tech house are most likely to show up when he's behind the decks.
