History[edit]
Bakker and den Daas met in 2004. Bakker grew up with his father producing electronic music, which allowed him to learn musical skills at an early age; Daas' experience was with happy hardcore. They began performing and recording together, and had their first release as D-Block & S-te-Fan in 2005. The pair had a string of releases on various labels before signing for Scantraxx and launching their own sub label, Scantraxx Evolutionz, on which they continue to release as of 2014.
Over their career, D-Block & S-te-Fan have performed at large hardstyle and dance events, including, Thrillogy, Qlimax, Mysteryland, Decibel and in 2011 hosted their own X-Qlusive. They also did a remix of the Headhunterz & Wildstylez track "Blame it on the Music," which was featured on Headhunterz' 2010 Studio Sessions album.
