Bio

Samma Lone, may be a relatively new name in the House world, but by no means is Steven Incrocci a newcomer on the scene. Steven has been shaking the asses of the masses since 1987 and producing music since 1992.
    Known to many as Lil'Steven, he has played alongside nearly every major name in the business, such as Larry Heard, Derrick Carter, Mark Farina, Miguel Migs, Roger Sanchez, Paul Johnson, DJ Sneak, Josh Wink, DJ Dan, Carl Craig, Chez Damier & Ron Trent, Doc Martin, Julius Papp, David Harness, Fred Everything, Kaskade, Cajmere, Joe Clausell, Colette and Tedd Patterson... to name a few. Steven held residencies at every major club in Atlanta, including two of the cities 24hr. bars, Backstreet & The Rivera, where he played for crowds of 1000+ every Friday and Saturday night/morning and became arguably the most prominent DJ in the city
    In the "Vinyl Age" Steven released tracks on US heavyweights, King Street Sounds, and on one the the UK's most legendary labels, Skint. He worked on music with Roland Clark (Urban Soul), for Peter Rauhofer's *69 imprint, Spain's Riviera Records and his own label's DeepTribalDubDisco & Klubb Kourtesy Records. His music saw distribution from Watts, TRC, Nemesis and Downtown 161, and was played by legend's like Tony Humphries, 'Little' Louie Vega, Victor Calderone, Fatboy Slim, Felix Da Housecat & Eric Morillo.
    Steven relocated to San Francisco at the start of 1993, and remained there until the end of 1995. In 1996 the Olympics were slated for Atlanta, and Steven returned home in anticipation of the nearly 1,000,000 person in fluxed into the city. During his stay in the Bay Area, Steven sowed his House oats and honed his abilities behind the decks. Having very well connected roommates helped Steven get active in the West Coast DJ circuit, playing at clubs like 1015 Folsom, The End Up, Black Diamond, and throwing parties at Minna Street Gallery and 7th Street Warehouse. Steven played outdoors and indoors all over San Francisco, with such DJs as Doc Martin, Jeno, Garth, Robbie Harkiss, Taj, Harry Who? and Nobel.
    In 2007, Steven branched off for a 2 year stint into the world of Electro & Fidget under the moniker JackBOT, which gained him recognition & spins from such "hipsters" as Laidback Luke, B.Rich, Figure, Tommie Sunshine, Steve Aoki's Mad Decent family, Jaimie Fanatic, Eats Everything and Porter Robinson. It was only a matter of time until Steven was to come back to House. This is where Skeet Traxx was born.
    In 2009 Skeet Traxx releases its first EP, and since then, has released over 50 more. Diving back into House was seamless and effortless, seeing as it was stitched into his DNA from day one. Reconnecting with his previous comrades was the first step, and rounding up some killer new music was step two. Immediately receiving support from Mark, Derrick, Sneak and hordes of new players on the scene like Gramophonedzie and Sonny Fodera, each release carves a slot in the world of Funky & Jackin House for Skeet Traxx. With a current catalog that boasts 140+ songs, Skeet Traxx has released music from such current & relevant artists like Eats Everything, Manjane, Corduroy Mavericks, Scrubfish, Hugh Cleal (Golf Clap) and Arco. Skeet Traxx has charted countless times, on Traxsouce, Stompy, Beatport, Trackitdown & Juno, as well seeing DJs from all over the world include ST in their personal Top 10 charts.
    Samma Lone, Steven's alias homage to Sam Malone from the TV series 'Cheers', released his first effort for the label as ST008. "Everyday Of My Life" goes to N0.15 on Beatport's House Chart, and reaches the N0.2 on Traxsource's Jackin Chart, thanks in part to incredible remixes from Eats Everything and Manjane. Since that first release he has appeared on such kingpin labels as Instereo (DJ Dan), Guesthouse Music, Nu Jax, Flapjack Records, Dufflebag & Coyote Cuts. Samma Lone's sound is best described as "Peak Hour House" & "Revisited Classics".
 
    In 2013 Samma Lone released a slew of Chart Topping singles, including TWO #1 records. "Treasure" was released exclusively on Traxsource in May, in little over a week it sky rockets to the Nu Disco Top 10 chart. From there it takes over the #1 spot, and doesn't falter for nearly 4 months, and stays in the chart until March of 2014. Traxsource's annual "Best of 2013 Chart", lists it as their #3 Nu Disco Track of the Year, and the #35 Overall Release of the Year.
    Next, "Say No Go" is released in August of 2013, same situation as before. Goes Top 10 in its first week, and stays there for nearly 3 months before flickering in the #1 spot. It is still currently in the Top 50 on Traxsource, and was sloted at #9 on the Nu Disco "Best of 2013" and #61 Overall for the Year.
