His works are also published to the audio distribution platform SoundCloud since 2012, under the alias Stan SB and from 2013 under the alias Fox Stevenson.[3] In 2013, he released an EP titled Endless,[6] the title track of which has since gained over 2.5 million listens on SoundCloud.[7]

In 2014, he announced the launch of his own record label, Cloudhead Records, under which he released an EP titled All This Time in the same year.[3][8] In July 2014, Stevenson released Throwdown, an EP accompanied by a live online premiere.[9]

In August 2015, he released a collaboration on Spinnin' Records with UK EDM artist Curbi, titled Hoohah.[10][11] He signed with the dubstep label Disciple in March 2016 and in April 2016 released his first EP on the label, No Fox Given.[12][13] On 12 September 2016, Fox Stevenson released a single titled "Rocket" on Disciple for the Alliance, Vol. 3 EP.[14]
