BIO

From the beginning, Stéfane Lippé's career as a DJ has been fabulous. He quickly knew how to build a solid reputation of excellence, while gaining the respect of Montreal's clubbing community. As early as the year 2000, his popularity started increasing dramatically, thanks to the Club Sky's Happy Hours in Montreal, and his specific Deep Funky Vocal sound.

In 2001, his dreams became a reality when Les Productions S.P.P. (www.gospp.com) offered him his first dedicated DJ residency. Stéfane became the monthly super star of the very popular event called Dimanche Church. Thanks to his very fluid spinning technique, his tempered style often comprised of FUNKYTECHTRIBALISM and great vocals, Stéfane won the heart of his diversified customers, all falling in love with his music's incredible energy.

In 2002, Stéfane entered the world's major dance events. These events included his starring role as a DJ at the Bad Boy Club Montreal' Twist Party (www.bbcm.org), along with DJ Paulette. In August, Stéfane played at the after hours club Aria (www.aria.com) during Divers Cité's (www.diverscite.org) closing events at Pride Ball. He played at Aria for 3 consecutives years, along with DJ Rob Di Stefano, owner of TWISTED records and Peter Rauhofer. Stéfane DJ'ed the 12th edition of the Bad Boy Club Montreal's Black & Blue Festival, where he played along with DJ James Anderson (NYC) during the closing event called Recovery Party held at Club Métropolis. It is also in 2002 that Stéfane takes control of the music at Montreal's Club Unity 2. On December 31st, Stéfane ends the year with STEREOMOVERS (www.stereomovers.ca) during a New Year's Eve special event.

The year 2003 had been a fabulous year for Stéfane. He signed with the major gay club in Montreal, better known as Parking (www.parkingbar.com where he was signed to play two Saturdays every month. He also made his grand entrance into Canada's metropolis, Toronto. There he was signed to play one Saturday every five weeks at the famous Club FLY (www.flynightclub.com). In 2003, Stéfane makes his entrance into the very popular after hours club STEREO (www.stereo-nightclub.com) along with DJ Stephan Grondin (www.stephangrondin.com). Later that year, Stephan is featured in the city of Vancouver, on the west coast of Canada, at the club GORG-O-MISH (www.gorg-o-mish.com). A loyal following was soon established. During New Year's Eve on December 31st 2003, Stéfane shared the turntables with DJ David Knapp at Club FLY in Toronto. Following the major success of this event, Club FLY immediately booked Stéfane's services for New Year's Eve 2004.

Stéfane Lippe is now becoming a renowned DJ. The new after hours club CIRCUS (www.circusafterhours.com) granted Stefane a monthly residency. Stéfane had a huge success playing twice at STEREO during the event called Finally Paris, along with DJ Tracy Young. The crowds noticed his insatiable Queer as Folk Future Babylon Tour, where he shared the turntables with DJ Manny Lehman.

In 2004, Stéfane played twice in Europe. One of his tours lasted three weeks. He spun at Élysée Montmartre for the party Finally, and Man Ray (www.spiritofstar.com) for the party Go during Gay Pride in Paris. His tour also included Club Kingdown for the party Joystick during Gay Pride in Cologne, at Nice's club Le Klub, and again in Paris at the Red Light Club and twice at Marseille's Spartacus… In August of 2004, for Gay Pride Montreal, Stéfane spun before a crowd of 30,000 people during the huge event of La Grande Danse. Following the success of this event, Stéfane was immediately booked for the 2005 edition. As recently as February of 2005, Stéfane played at the Underground Legacy, along with DJ's Robert De La Gauthier, Tiga and Rob Di Stefano.

The next major step for Stéfane will be the production of music, while keeping his residencies in Montreal and Toronto. Stéfane has become the clubbing's rising star in North America. Combining his energy, talent, and club experience, he knows how to please the variety of crowds... and make them dance for hours on end.
