Stef Davidse

The ENDZ056 vinyl and the leap to Eastenderz

When Eastenderz released the twelve-inch ENDZ056, Stef Davidse stopped being a Dutch promise to occupy a place in British house. Hypercut, State Of Mind, Da Record, and Bendy summarized a language of rolling bass, precise percussion, and vocal samples that were already circulating on the USBs of benchmark DJs. East End Dubs signed four tracks; for the Rotterdam producer, it was the proof that the sound he had been chasing finally fit.

From Strafwerk and DGTL to the Lab11 booths

His connection with house arrived in 2018: videos of Luuk van Dijk at Strafwerk, a trip to Ibiza with his sister, and, shortly after, Archie Hamilton at DGTL, his first electronic festival. Before that, he had produced hip hop; that grammar of rhythms and chopped vocals slipped into his tracks. His British debut at Lab11, in Birmingham, with a B2B with Gaskin and another with Ryan Resso until closing, set the tone for a career increasingly anchored in England, where WYLD took over bookings and he found a more passionate audience than in the Netherlands.

MicroHertz, Hottrax, and the label circuit

Burnin', elevated alongside ANOTR on No Art, surpassed millions of streams and opened doors for him. On MicroHertz, Archie Hamilton's label, a four-handed EP arrived with Ryan Resso. WYLD hosted Love Yourself Anthem, Open Doors, and Climb Up. In 2025, he debuted on Hottrax, Jamie Jones's label, with P Power and Going Down, a milestone tested at the Eastenderz ADE. The Bag, on You&Me, and the Out This World EP for Factory 93 —with the title track played by Josh Baker at Boiler Room— expanded the map toward a more vocal deep tech and a sound close to UK garage.

Club craft and the Rotterdam scene

In parallel, he studied Leisure and Event Management at the Rotterdam art academy, did internships at Shelter and The Loft in Amsterdam, and launched Electrolyte, a project with fellow students to cross art and nightlife. In the booth, he has passed through Guerrilla, Thuishaven, 93 Feet East, Depot Mayfield, and, in Ibiza, Hï Ibiza, Eden, and UNVRS, including Jamie Jones's Paradise. The support of Jamie Jones, Archie Hamilton, Josh Baker, East End Dubs, Franky Rizardo, Chris Stussy, or Sidney Charles places his productions at the center of contemporary tech house and deep tech.

Beatport number ones and the present on the dancefloor

His sessions rely on unreleased material, recognizable basslines, and synthesis that push the dancefloor. He has signed number ones on Beatport's Minimal / Deep Tech charts and his music has been heard in 163 countries. Booking is handled through Meanwhile, while WYLD remains in the orbit of management and the British scene that has adopted him.
