But all fun and jokes aside, let us not forget where the brand "The Darkraver" also stands for: a highly skilled DJ with fantastic mixing techniques, with an impeccable choice of records to go with it. This combination of entertainment and skills has proved to be an enormous success and made him by far one of the most booked artists of all times, delivering him a huge - and ever growing - fan base. Before Steve got to call himself "The Darkraver" and received global DJ recognition, he had multiple careers: security guard, stripper, bartender He found himself behind decks for the very first time in in a small club called "Cornische" in Scheveningen a "suburb" of The Hague , but things really took off when he headlined the infamous Rave The City events, held in his home town The Hague.

The back-to-back performances which he did with buddy in crime Gizmo - using all kinds of crazy artefacts such as rubber hammers, stupid wigs and batman costumes - soon became the talk of the town and earned him a residency at the legendary Parkzicht club; a venue considered by the early rave generation and hardcore lovers in general as sacred ground.

Events like A Nightmare in Rotterdam, Megarave, Thunderdome, Eurorave, Ghosttown, Mysteryland and many more followed soon after that, along with gigs in just about every club, hall or venue in The Netherlands.

His busy DJ schedule didn't go by unnoticed across the Dutch border, so international gigs on the entire European, American and Australian continent were added to the ever filling Darkraver agenda, making him an internationally acclaimed artist.

With a rapidly growing DJ career, the logical next step to take is producing records. In , he presented his debut release "One fucked up Soon after this release, he teamed up with Ferry "Gizmo" Salee and presented his second release: "Direction of Fear E. In , The Darkraver immediately entered the Hall of Producers Fame with the release "Intelligent Hardcore" a collaboration with Vince , an instant early rave classic which was succeeded in by their massive follow up "Thunderground".

Both records are still being hammered during many early rave events and are still to be found on piles of past and present compilations. Next to being a respected DJ and producer, The Darkraver now also achieved pop star status. Twenty years later, The Darkraver has done, seen and experienced everything and anything. There almost hasn't been any club, booth, venue or location where he didn't deliver massacre amongst the party minded people, playing his unique blend of early house, old school, early rave, hardstyle, jumpstyle and hardcore.

In collaboration with Dutch organisation b2s, The Darkraver created his very own playground for himself and his personally invited DJ colleagues: Pussy Lounge. An immense popular concept held only in the biggest and most prolific Dutch venues, mostly sold out weeks in advance. Inspired by all that's happening behind closed doors in Steve's bedroom, In Bed With The Darkraver had its debut at Dutch mega venue Matrixx on the 23rd of January with amazing success.

A packed room, wicked decoration including a gigantic bed on stage, erotic entrainment and a top notch line up kicked off this new concept to frequently return in high profile venues and on festivals in the years to come. His long term experience, positive attitude, healthy sense of humour and undisputed technique makes him one of the top names in the industry.

One of the rare breed who can say he has been - and still is - on the top of the scene for more than twenty years! Toch zitten ze niet stil! Veel artiesten werken aan nieuwe tracks en The Darkraver is daar geen uitzondering op. Ook op dit deel mag en kan werkelijk waar alles. Party agenda Darkraver archive.
