Steffi is a Dutch-born musician based in Berlin, Germany. As a resident at the renowned Panorama Bar in Berlin and also well known for her production and own Electro and Techno label called Klakson, she is a key figure in contemporary electronic music with work embraces many genres of underground electronic culture.
Steffi's Sophomore album, Power Of Anonymity, is due out in November on double-vinyl, CD and digital formats and will include ten tracks with contributions from Dexter and Virginia on the cut "Treasure Seeking". It follows Yours & Mine (one of Resident Advisors top 20 albums of 2011) her 2013's Panorama Bar 05 mix.
Steffie Doms when discussing her Sophomore album said "I wanted to start working on my new album without any personal or external expectations and I was seeking an emancipated, unshackled approach in the album's construction," Doms says. "I intended to include electro and IDM elements as these are my roots: it's the music that I first started DJing. After almost 20 years I got the feeling that I've come full circle, so I wanted to make an album that I, as a DJ, would like to carry in my record bag."
Furthermore she added: "My first LP is very conceptual, it has a certain vibe that not only fits the club but also works on a stereo or in the car. Power Of Anonymity is much more about how I see the dance floor these days, and my aim was to take that vision into the studio. I asked myself what would happen if I could produce day after day without DJ gigs and travel interrupting my flow.
"These long stints in the studio allowed me to divide my time into three single blocks: initially I would only do jams and make sketches, followed by a phase for arranging and editing all recordings, and then a mixdown period for the album. Concentrating on creating Power Of Anonymity has inspired me to carry on tapping deeper into my creative vein. I'm looking forward to the next time when I can step into the studio. Being focused is the key."
