Poker Flat Recordings is the product of Germany’s minimal dance connoisseur, Steve Bug. Steve started his DJ-career in a small after-hour bar near Ibiza’s Space back in 1991 - soon becoming resident DJ in the best club in his hometown Bremen and booked to major German events such as the Love Parade. In 1993 he releases his first productions on Hamburg-based Superstition Recordings and in 1996 he founded his own label Raw Elements, followed by a 12“ for Felix Da Housecat’s Radical Fear imprint.

After “Volksworld”, his first LP on Raw Elements, together with the mix compilations “Da Minimal Funk Part 1 & 2” Steve put the label to sleep in order to set up two brand-new platforms for vinyl releases –Dessous and Poker Flat.

Always crossing the bridges between house and techno with relaxed dignity, showing consequently that less can often be more, Steve Bug soon became heralded as the minimal tech-house master and one of the few gems of the innovative German electronic house scene. Poker Flat soon established itself as the number one source for stripped down futuristic house music with amazing musical diversity and it’s name spread like wildfire with Steve’s eternal minimal clubhit “Loverboy” in 1999 - the opener to his album “The Other Day” and the very first release on Poker Flat.

Steve Bug continues playing with seductive and laid-back funk, dirty retro basslines and random bleeps, incorporates techno electro and basic funk into bare house grooves creating moody minimal and seductive music. More recent releases show Steve’s love for the dancefloor and prove that he has an over abundance of funk and minimal melody coursing through his veins.

The new Poker Flat Volume 4. is a belter and proves just what a talent Mr. Bug and his Poker Flat imprint are.
