Q. So where did the name Balboa come from?

This is Cleveland Steamer - Take note of the name cos he's here to stay.
Representing Horsham, he's only been producing for just under a year and already has a nice selection of releases on Dub Cartel Label and has played out with Southbound Hangers. We caught up with him for a nice little interview. Read on to find out more about Cleveland Steamer and no, he doesn't like to shit on people....
How long have you been producing and what got you into Dubstep?
Well where to start mate, i've been producing since early february last year what got me into dubstep was being in a few metal bands. i was shown Rusko - woo boost and i thought right this is dubstep? I'll have to take a deeper look at this spent my time finding new artists and tracks stumbled across Datsik & Excision and from that moment I knew I wanted to produce. Being in a band with 5 other people was difficult we could never decide what we wanted to make we'd just sit around get high and try to make music together. I love the independence of being able to produce what I want.
Who/What are your influences?
My influences, my surroundings, my girl, my cat and donnie darko has to be one of my large influences what a sick film!
What equipment/software do you use to produce?
I use logic pro 8 and ableton live 8, I have to say I love using them both day in and day out... since I don't have a job I made it my priority to get signed and start making money from my hobby.
Highlight of your career so far?
I've had quite a few highlights... getting signed to dub cartel and having the honour to play with Southbound Hangers.
Where would you like to be in 2 years?
I'd like to be in a position where everything I own to do with technology, just works.
Anybody you would like to collaborate with in an ideal world?
Hopefully got some big collabs coming soon, though nothing for definite ;) but ideally i'd like to collab with Tomba or Downlink or culprate (lucky enough to remix one of his tunes) just someone who sets the standards for other producers.
Top 5 Dubstep tracks?
1. Devnik & Dux - Bumpy ride
2. Chasing Shadows - Amirah
3. Culprate - Don't do that
4. Downlink - Station six
5. Liquid Stranger - Meltdown
