Steve-D

With a great adoration and passion for the melodic and underground Early Rave sounds, Steve-D will serve you the hidden pearls and the out of the ordinary, forgotten diamonds of the past!

The alias Steve-D originated since Steve Dekker was just a 12-year-old kid, playing rave, industrial, terror, speedcore, you name it! In 2008, the passionate DJ/producer became the prominent Dr. Peacock. However, over the years, his passion for early hardcore remained and Steve decided this reincarnated alter-ego is purely, proudly and exclusively established for this passion filled project.

From Hellbound to the Defqon.1 GOLD, Steve-D performed at the biggest early hardcore stages in no time. With his energetic performance accompanied by his love for early hardcore, Steve gets the whole crowd to go wild at iconic classics from his early days. At Multigroove (2021) Steve-D played an extraordinary early rave set under his oldest name. This instant, legendary live-set has more than 100,000 views on YouTube!

Besides the fact that Steve-D will mainly focus on Early Rave & underground melodic hardcore from the past, he is not afraid to think outside-the-box and will sometimes serve the musical soul spirits 'something else'. As long as it is with passion! 🙏🏻

Expect a musical journey through hardcore music: melodic, melancholic & dark.

This is Steve-D!
