D-Block & S-te-Fan is een Nederlands dj- en producerduo bestaande uit Diederik Bakker en Stefan den Daas. Hun eerste release was 'Fresh New Beat' op Danamite, het label van DJ Dana. Ze produceren voornamelijk Hardstyle, maar ze beschikken ook over het DBSTF alias waaronder house muziek uitgebracht wordt.
Loopbaan
Hun eerste release was 'Fresh New Beat' op Danamite, het label van DJ Dana in 2005. Sinds hun debuut speelden ze reeds op grote dance-evenementen zoals Qlimax en Defqon.1. In 2006 werden ze eigenaar van hun eigen platenlabel, Next Chapter. Dit eigen platenlabel gaven ze op voor een plaats bij Scantraxx Recordz. Hier kregen ze al snel een eigen sublabel, Scantraxx Evolutionz. Op 22 januari 2011 gaven D-Block & S-te-Fan hun eigen X-Qlusive feest.[1]
Medio 2014 besloten zij hun muzikale horizon te verbreden onder de naam DBSTF. Dit leidde eind 2014 tot een samenwerking met het duo Blasterjaxx, waaruit op 5 januari 2015 de track "Beautiful World" ontstond. Ze maken nog steeds hardstyle onder hun originele naam.[2]
In 2019 lanceerden zij een live act, Ghost Stories.[3]
Invloeden
De muziek van D-Block & S-te-Fan is in het begin beïnvloed door UK hard house en Duitse hardtrance van onder meer Cosmic Gate, Tom Harding, JP en Scot Project. Later waren dat DJ Zany, The Prophet, Deepack, Dana en DJ Luna.[4]
