Steve Barnes released his first 12", an abstract excursion into sound and space, on the English label Fat Cat under the name Process. This was soon followed by the album "Shape Space" (featured by John Peel on his long running BBC Radio 1 show) and further releases on Chicago's Hefty and Berlin's Scape labels.

Around the same time he introduced an alternative Process sound on the then newly formed Traum label of Cologne. Barnes has since had a steady stream of releases on both Traum and Trapez as both Process and Steve Barnes, presenting his individual take on minimal and atmospheric club tracks.

In 2004 he started a his new project Cosmic Sandwich named after the huge success he had with his 'Cosmic Sandwich EP' on My Best Friend and has since released several Cosmic Sandwich EPs influenced by house, techno and disco.

At the moment Steve Barnes is recording his album which will be released in September 2006. Besides production he continues to DJ all over mainland Europe.
