Stereoliez
Stereoliez, the stage name of Milan-born producer and DJ Matteo Grassi, spent more than twelve years playing drums before shifting into electronic music, later living in London and Los Angeles as he built a bass house sound rooted in tempos between 124 and 130 BPM. His breakthrough came when a track uploaded to SoundCloud went viral in Mexico, prompting a subsequent American tour that expanded his international profile. His single "MollyBreath," released through Confession, the label run by Tchami, received mainstage support when Tchami played it during his Ultra festival set.
Stereoliez has performed at Italy's Jova Beach Party and at Kappa FuturFestival, and producer Zedd repeatedly played one of his tracks in sets including his EDC Mexico performance in February 2024. He produced "Stanley Kubrick" for Machete Mixtape 3, a compilation that earned a gold disc certification. More recently, Stereoliez launched Skorpioklub, an invite-only hybrid of private party and art performance staged in unconventional Milan locations including a shopfront window and a converted recording-studio exterior, featuring collaborators Kaishi, Gamuel Sori and SLVR.
Before the pandemic he circulated UK-focused "brick tapes" mixes, and he has cited Sammy Virji as a long-standing influence, reflecting his continued engagement with UK bass and garage-adjacent sounds within his production and DJ work.
