Speed DJ teamed up with Winterborn to create an uplifting trance track called 'Universe', enjoy!

Speed DJ was born in Italy/Rome in 1987. The passion for music was born since childhood listening to a lot of electronic music of various genres from the softer sound like Italo Dance to a more extreme sound like hard-trance and hardstyle. Then over time he became aware of the genre uplifting trance listening especially to songs by Giuseppe Ottaviani, Paul Van Dyk, Aly & Fila. In 2019 he started working with the label Tuned:Flow, which became the resident dj/producer. Subsequently he signed other record contracts with Joyride Recordings and Phoenix Recordings in collaboration with Glacial Storm. The sound of Speed DJ is an emotional sound with hard and aggressive basslines and engaging melodies. Greetings from Italy!

His love for electronic music was born when he was 10 years old for the first time he saw the Kraftwerk play "We are the robots" on a TV show. From that moment on there was nothing else , first as a game, then as a hobby and finally as a job but always with passion! Since 1994 he has worked in studio collaborating with various artists and DJs, producing various musical genres , pop, rock , music for theatrical performances and of course dance and electronic music. Over the years he has collaborated and published with various record labels such as Media Records, Scantraxx Italy, Definitiva, Whole Records, DigIt, Rise Records, Tuned:Flow , AVA Recordings and Nocturnal Knights Music.

So, you haven’t used it much, then not been living the van life?
Mine… Well I still have to buy it before then has to be adapted obviously but it’s a ridiculously high price so… We’ll see I need to get my credit rating up over the next three months to have a chance

UK producer Steve Allen graces us with his new record on FSOE, 'I Need You' pulls on the heart strings with strong emotional vibes.

 

[leej]

Very few can boast that they created a ‘Classic Trance Anthem’ in their studio, that accolade is one of many that Steve Allen can claim! During Steve’s time as the producer and DJ within the project ‘Allen & Envy’ Steve managed to create a number of global hits including ‘Silhouette’, ‘Stole The Sun’, ‘Don’t Say’, ‘Home’, ‘Rush’, ‘Rescue Me’ and ‘Kardia’. He created regular music for Armada, Black Hole, Future Sound Of Egypt, Garuda, Flashover, Pure Trance and his trance has been championed by the likes of Armin Van Buuren, Aly & Fila, Paul Van Dyk, Solarstone and countless others! It comes as no surprise why Steve’s productions have dominated the Beatport charts for the last 5 years, with the ‘Allen & Envy’ project reaching Top10 status on Beatstats Artists, a chart of the best selling acts on Beatport over a 12 month period! But Steve’s talents don’t just lie in the studio, playing his productions at the worlds biggest events is something that drives and motivates him! This was topped off with a producer set at the launch of “Transmission Melbourne” in front of a sold out 8,000 fans! Other notable European shows include A State of Trance 650 - Utrecht, The Street Parade - Geneva, Luminosity Beach Festival - Holland, Colors Festival - UK, Quest 4 Trance - Holland, Godskitchen - UK, Gatecrasher - UK, RONG - UK, Goodgreef - UK, Zoom - UK, Trance Sanctuary - UK, Passion – UK, Remedy - UK and many more. On an international scale, Steve has toured Australia, Canada and the United States, where Allen & Envy was chosen to perform at the world’s first ever Dreamstate, an Insomniac Brand that is dedicated to curating stages and events unique to the exploding genre of Trance! The list of international dance hubs goes on that Steve has played having reached fans in LA at Exchange, Ruby Skye of San Francisco, Soundbar in Chicago, Room 680 in Melbourne and more recently at FSOE450 in UK and Taiwan! Now, the solo path beckons, with Steve’s first release - a remix of Christina Novelli’s “Where We Began” on Garuda just around the corner, and countless more releases forthcoming on the scene’s biggest labels, its clear that there is so much more to come from this talented artist!

We live in it for the week or so it takes to get there and back from Spain and it's great but we've not had any money to go anywhere in it this time around. There's a massive lake close by but the weather hasn't been right. Costs alot of money to have it sitting there as well doing nothing! About £100 a month I'd say after tax and insurance, storage!

Yeah I mean our van is 27 years old and cost 8k. How much is a ridiculously high price these days?

Yeah, I’m trying to factor in the costs. I want to use it for weeks on end around the UK & in Europe I need to make the most of it.
And make sure I can afford it when I’m on the road aswell… The finance is looking at over £1000 a month at the moment the van itself is £101,000

 

[leej]

I personally would love a cheaper van, but unfortunately due to me being in a wheelchair, I need an adapted motorhome and that costs even more money so yet again I’m screwed

Oofft that's alot of money! The bigger they are the more difficult it is to get into places especially in the UK. Also they turn into sweat boxes with any heat. 40degrees in my motorhome almost every day (which is why the fridge doesn't 'work'. Positives though; France, Italy and Spain are a joy for full time van life with free parking everywhere. Italy and Spain are so much cheaper too with diesel and food, booze.

Yeah, and of course the interest rate being reasonably high right now means that monthly payment will be much higher than it was a couple of years ago.

Yeah, I’m gonna need to get air-conditioning in mine I suffer big time with the heat. I’ve been watching loads of videos on YouTube to get as much information I can about living in them almost full-time. It’s funny. My van starts out as pretty much the cheapest one on the market brand-new it’s a swift voyager 494 but once it’s modified, it works out at 101,000 and I don’t pay tax on that either, ridiculous

Most likely you'll need to be on hook up for air con. We try to avoid camp sites prefering the wild camping but they have their uses. I suppose you'll have done your research into the conversion and who could do it etc. So you can't convert an older, cheaper one?
