Embrace, Plexi PR and FDS Recordings Present...PORTERHOUSE featuring Steve Porter. This is the only exclusively FREE Winter Music Conference party serving fresh apple pie. Winter Music Conference is typically a time for discovering new talent and taking the global temperature on the climate of dance music for the coming year. This year is no different as we present American DJ-cum-producer STEVE PORTER in the midst of a 25+ city North American tour with a party at the height of WMC this year on Friday, March 25th at State Nightclub.
In the true spirit of WMC, we have made this event a FREE event as an alternative to the regular price gouging at the major clubs on Miami Beach. Judging from the early press coming in about Steve and his debut artist album ‘Homegrown’, the forecast is excellent and we invite you to get ready for a full-on night fueled by funked-up, fantasy Porterhouse.

STEVE PORTER ‘Homegrown’ debut artist album
FDS Recordings
North American Tour
"The Homegrown album is basically a yearbook of grooves and melodies that I mixed together into one 14 track collage. It was about painting with different colors and growth as an artist, as I didn't feel satisfied just producing one-off singles and remixes anymore. DJing has always inspired my production work and I think the album reflects that. I wanted to make a funky, fun, colorful album with a balance of creative freedom and dancefloor tangibility. Having such an album to tour with really shapes the chemistry of your DJing style in such amazing ways too, not only having different shades to work with, but learning from the contrast between your records and others." -STEVE PORTER
‘Homegrown’ is an amalgam of Steve Porter’s various unique styles and melodic nuances. After amassing a collection of over 50 singles and 28 remixes under his name and the many aliases (Agent 001, HDF & Bons), this expertly mixed album brings together 14 original tracks. Some of which have already garnered wide attention with inclusion of the tracks on numerous high-profile dance music labels & compilations including; "Vodka Cranberries" on hot new label Nu Republic, "Definite Form" on Sander Kleinenberg’s Little Mountain Records and included on his recent Everybody CD for Renaissance, and most recently, the track “Swanky” has been included on über-cool Felix da Housecat’s upcoming Playboy: The Mansion compilation.
From Boston to New York, Steve Porter has evolved from record store clerk to New England rave DJ to landing on the roster at one of the most prestigious booking agencies in the world. Steve Porter was discovered by Chris Fortier when Chris heard a CDR of his productions in 1999. Chris quickly brought him into the FADE Records fold. Soon thereafter, Steve was signed as the youngest member to join The Collective Agency; home to Sasha, U.N.K.L.E., Lee Burridge and James Zabiela. He began touring across the U.S., Canada, South America, Australia, Asia and Europe and has played alongside Sasha on the Airdrawndagger & Involver North American tours, Sander Kleinenberg on the Essential Mix Tour and also headlining a hectic schedule of national and international DJ dates.
His sound is known to his fans as “Porterhouse,” an eclectic range of funked-up house beats with a techy-edge and twisted jams induced by his own re-edits and mixes that molds his DJ sets. Last WMC’s re-edit of Miami Vice’s theme song had the punters still talking about it months later. When Steve walks into a record store he examines every genre, picking the top gems from Disco to Techno to Trance and everything in between. The essence of Porterhouse brings the energetic action to the dancefloor where the warm, funky basslines and cool percussion melt away any chin stroking pretensions and the resonating guitar & piano hooks lure you into an eternal groove. Make no mistake, Porterhouse is party house.
