Steph aka Steph Hein

Steph is an Adelaide DJ and selector whose sound moves through ambient, downtempo, jazz and the more exploratory edges of electronic music. A strong interest in vinyl runs through her recorded mixes, where spacious electronics, warm instrumentation and slower rhythms sit comfortably alongside more abstract and experimental selections. Rather than being tied to one club genre, Steph approaches DJing through mood, texture and careful selection, drawing connections between electronic listening music and sounds rooted in jazz and ambient traditions. Her online mixes reference labels including Music From Memory, Kompakt, Warp and NOTON, alongside artists such as Nala Sinephro and Matthew Halsall. In Adelaide, Steph appears within the city's independent electronic community, including events connected with Acetic Records, a local label and promoter centred on deeper and minimal electronic sounds.
