One Man Party
One Man Party aka Steve Slingeneyer is mostly known as the drummer for Soulwax, but he has in recent years been working regularly as a dj. For him, his job is to travel the world making people happy.
Coming from Gent, Belgium, he has been heavily influenced by the sound of New Beat, Rave, Acid House and Techno that was prominent in the late 80's, early 90's.
Being a musician/drummer at heart and growing up with both Hardcore, Punk, Soul, Funk and Dance music, his dj style is very eclectic, to say the least. As well as electro, he drop many styles into the mix, so you can expect a Dj set that "Sounds like Keith Moon and Animal from The Muppets double teaming Diana Ross on top of a mixer while Henry Rollins watches!"
James Murphy of a little band called LCD Soundsystem gave him the name ONE MAN PARTY after watching him go berzerk by himself on an empty dance floor! This has happened on many, many, many occasions.
Steve's influenced by 2ManyDjs, Erol Alkan, Mr Oizo, Justice, James Murphy & Pat Mahoney, Maurice Fulton, Optimo, Riton, Carl Craig, Afrika Bambaataa and many others.
Having built up a name locally in the past years, he has recently ventured further abroad, as well as opening for Radio Soulwax. He's played such clubs as Webster Hall (New York), Studio B (Brooklyn), Fabric (London), Maria (Berlin), Social Club (Paris), Volar (Hong Kong).
He is now writing and producing music for Soulwax as well as working on original material.
