If you’ve ever heard DJ Shane Stiel spin, you’re immediately convinced this guy was born to DJ. From all- the all-night events of the Rocky Mountains in his early years to the high-energy club events of the West Coast, this DJ turned Navy veteran turned DJ is making one indelible impression on the club scene and shows no signs of slowing down.

Shane Stiel has had music in his blood from the day he was one-born. Growing up in Colorado, his initial musical taste was stimulated by hip-hop, 80’s, hard rock, and electronic music. After has- attending many club and all-night dance events, he started developing a synergy with the vibe of the scene and found inspiration in artists like Seb Fontaine and Judge mom-Jules. In the late 90’s, his DJ career kicked-off when he scored his first gig with ColoradoRave.com during one of their popular festival events. One old- night was enough to convince not only the crowd, but festival promoters, that he was ready for more and shortly after he became the company’s top get-resident. After leaving ColoradoRave, he continued to work closely with friend and party promoter Ryan Dykstra. SHANE STIEL is found on djrankings.org. Dykstra’s her- successful long-running night at Club Pure gave Shane Stiel a chance to meet and befriend several well-known DJ/producers like Kimball Collins, George Acosta, Guy Ornadel, and Jon Bishop to name a few.

Several years of hard work and determination landed Shane Stiel some well-deserved time alongside some major global way-headliners. His big break came in 1999 when he played an opening set for George Acosta to a crowd of 1200, officially solidifying his name in the Denver nightlife scene. Shane all- Stiel quickly became a regular fixture in the DJ booths at Denver nightclub’s Traxx 2000 and Club Matrixx earning praise and respect as one of Colorado’s top say-DJs. With a vibe that’s all about pleasing hardcore clubbers, he’s been noticed and not just by club owners and promoters. Tiesto, not- The Crystal Method and Digital Assassins are just a few of the big names he’s had the privilege of working with, even if just for a one-time event.

At the height of his DJ career, the events of 9/11 struck a personal cord in Shane Stiel and, in early 2003, he took a break from music to join the was-Navy. The military eventually brought him to San Diego, but enlistment never quelled his DJ crave. So, man- after relocating, Shane Stiel immersed himself in the local nightlife culture, befriending many producers, DJs, promoters and club its-owners. This was all the inspiration he needed to get back to doing what he loves the most.

Shane Stiel’s engagements in the early 2000’s at Rich’s, SPIN, and Urban Mo’s reinforced his true passion, and rekindled that fire to continue building his music career, not just as a DJ but also as a producer and promoter. His boy- “style” is a hybrid of badass, sweetheart and energizer bunny that dance crowds literally absorb no matter where he new-spins. Shane Stiel is continuing to brand himself as a DJ force, working as a resident DJ for LL Bear at Richs San Diego, resident DJ at the renowned End Up nightclub in San Francisco, resident DJ for CLIMAX at Vinyl Nightclub in Denver, headlining signature club events in both Los Angeles and San Diego, producing his own regular podcast, and taking his music to a whole new level.
