About Me

Steven Bronz Born in Saginaw, Michigan. Steve spent his first 23 years living the suburban life in his hometown. From break dancing to Michael Jackson while taking on piano and drums in the mid 80’s to bobbin’ his head to hip hop in the early 90’s to rockin’ out to Pearl Jam in the mid 90’s with the guitar being his weapon of choice, a genre was still missing. In October 1998, he transplanted to Phoenix, Arizona where he was introduced to dance music at a rave thrown in an airport hanger in 1999. At the end of 2001 after a nice farewell to Arizona, Steve moved to New York City in April 2002 then to begin his career in Djing in March of 2003. Mostly spinning on his decks at home, he met resident DJ Nicolae of a popular NYC hang out, Sin Sin/Leopard Lounge. This was the beginning point as Bronz’s debut began in September, 2003 spinning a high energy set for a packed house on his birthday. Ever since then he hasn’t looked back. He has been aggressively booking gigs at popular night spots including Crobar, Avalon, Sullivan Room, BLVD, Le Souk, Happy Valley, Keybar and the now closed popular night club Filter 14. As well as booking gigs in NYC, he’s also taking on gigs in Phoenix, AZ and Miami Beach, FL taking full advantage of all the different styles he can throw at you at the drop of a dime. Playing along side the likes of Sander Kleinenberg, Nic Fanciulli, Steve Porter, Andrew Grant, David Hollands, Francis Harris, Justin Long, Jon Lemmon, Dean Coleman and Marc George, Bronzie has gained much more respect than he’s expected and lays the vinyl smoothly to getcha movin’ with his flow of relentless house beats-dirty funky chunky pounding bass electro style with acapellas to send your feet glidiing across the floor.....
For his collaboration with Gabriela Pereira of Fusion Clique Productions, he wants to reach new heights of music production and elements of djing influenced heavily by many such as Danny Tenaglia, Deep Dish, Sander Kleinenberg & Lee Burridge playing regularly at "Arc", a popular NYC nightclub on the weekends. By hearing the different sounds and mixing styles of these dj’s, Steve has been able to take huge steps on the mixer by utilizing every single knob to the point that you feel it the most so you get your dance on!
Currently Steve is focusing on production and his monthly residency at the longest running house music bar on Miami Beach, Blue. Focusing on bringing local djs from NYC down to share their turns on the decks at Blue, Bronzie enjoys every single moment of sharing the beats at anytime. Styles can range from funky tech house to progressive minimal always with a FAT bassline to back it up to make you shake it. Look out for a fresh and first release by the end of 2008 from Bronzie.
