"Steve's music is really hot for me right now and I'm playing loads of it at my gigs and on my radio shows. I hope we get a remix from him on Perfecto soon!"

"I remember exactly when I walked into a club in San Diego and heard a track that made me go right up to the warm up dj and ask him
what it was. "Steve Haines" he said. Been a massive fan of the acid driven, chunky hybrid style that Steve makes ever since"
