Stojche Artist Bio

Stojche is one of the names on the European circuit that is broadening the scope on the underground house today. Hailing straight from the Macedonia, he makes some of most downright tech and deep house music around right now. Stojche Cvetanovski grew up listening and playing techno in the capital city of Skopje, went on to run parties and clubs and from there moved to producing, developing his own take on the modern sound of underground house, a sound that is distilled perfectly into dj sets.

Stojche was mostly inspired by the local techno scene in Skopje, whereby all the godfathers of techno like Jeff Mills, Derrick May, Juan Atkins, Dave Clarke, Ben Sims performed in the late 90’s. The motivation, the passion and his persistency to start creating his own sound and perform as a dj got him a reputation of one of the most desired 3-deck techno dj’s in Macedonia.

In 2006 Stojche and his friends formed Pollux Multimedia, group that promoted the best underground parties in Skopje throughout the last decade and in 2010 together with Sound Diffusion he started ‘Argumento Music’, vinyl imprint that provides an underground house platform for the likes of KiNK, Marko Nastic, Elef, Alex Arnout etc.

With his stunning first releases ‘Djibouti’ EP and ‘The Old Bill’ on Dogmatik, ‘Vague’ on Argumento, ‘Solo’ EP on Consistent, which were charted and regular spin-outs for Ellen Allien, Clive Henry, X-Press 2, DJ T., Jamie Jones, Kevin Griffiths, Deetron, Agnes, Matt Tolfrey, Audio Soul Project, Nic Fanciulli, Arnaud Le Texier and others, Stojche turned the attention of many labels and signed his upcoming works on labels like , Liebe * Detail, Uberbeat, Leftroom, etc. By constantly reaching the top of the charts, and been supported by already big established names, Stojche’s reputation on the scene is sloping upward. Production-wise he continues to show consistency in his releases, whereby he is careless and ignorant to the current trends and rather is focused on the quality; the rich groove and the uniqueness as a main attributes.

His DJ sets are full of exquisite, refreshing, rolling, deep and crisp grooviness. He always combines various forms of underground house all the way from trippy mysterious weird melodies to pure dance floor shakers that is always creating exciting mood for the audience.

Throughout the last decade he has played in many club venues, festivals (Akto Festival, Red Bat Music Fest, Alarm Festival etc.) all over Macedonia, and regular guest to the usual rounds of Europe (all the way from Greece, to London & Ibiza)

So far he has performed alongside with: Sven Vath, Kevin Sanuderson, Ade Fenton, Ben Long, Jamie Bissmire, KiNK, And ID, Booka Shade, David Labeij, Marko Nastic, Alex Arnout, Maya Jane Coles, Miss Fitz, Martinez, Alex Celler etc.
