Stefan Boon
Every track has a story.
As an experiment, Stefan Boon made Did It Before after noticing that many people around him weren't really into techno. Wanting to create something more people could vibe with, he took a more mainstream approach with this track.
Someone introduced Boon to the music of the artist Stoto, which inspired him to create a track in a similar style. The person who introduced him described the track as having 'summer vibes'. Taking 'SUM' from summer and 'O' from Stoto, the name SUMO was born.
If You Leave Me is one of Boon's most well-received tracks. The guitar sections and the mellow vibe are what people love the most about it. As with all of his songs, the guitars were played by Boon himself, adding a personal and authentic touch to the track.
Boon's very first release, and often referred to as people's favourite track. Fun fact: The Watch was made using the free demo version of PreSonus Studio One, proving that you don't need expensive tools to create something truly special.
Life isn't always fun and everybody feels a little down sometimes. In those moments, Boon heads to the studio to express his mood. D-Pression was created during one of those times, as reflected in its dark and brooding theme.
The Bear tells the story of a powerful bear striding through the forest. Suddenly, another bear appears in the distance. The first breakdown represents their cautious approach, studying each other as they move closer. Then at the big drop, the tension explodes in a fierce, roaring collision.
