Poker Flat chief Steve Bug steps up to mix the latest installment in the Fabric series. An innovator, minimal dance connoisseur, tech house master – a head of the game – though he’s been given many prestigious titles, if there’s one quality that can be best attributed to Steve Bug, it would be modesty.

For his Fabric mix, Bug promises a close representation of a Bug night in Farringdon: “I wanted to make the fabric mix atmospheric, with the occasional track where things go off! I think it typifies a set at fabric. When I was doing the Bugnology series, I was trying to compile all the records I was playing at that time. However, the mix for fabric will be much more influenced by my sets in fabric: it will be a perfect snapshot of how I play at the club.”

Despite the fact that he’s now largely regarded as one of the founding fathers of minimal – creating his ‘Da Minimal Funk’ compilation over 10 years ago – and one of the most sought-after 4/4 DJs booked today, Bug remains truly humble when reflecting on the majestic rise from his beginnings as a dancefloor-dwelling clubber in Bremen, Germany to ruling his renowned Dessous/Poker Flat empire in Berlin.

These days, as a DJ, producer and label owner, Bug is credited as being a fundamental instigator in the movement of house, techno and that ever-present word, minimal, in Europe. Catch the bug and indulge in the kind of infectious mix that gets more addictive with each listen.
