How can you continue to see the world as real, if the the self that is determining it to be real, is intangible...

Tears of Technology is an independent solo dance artist / producer / remixer from New Orleans, La. Growing up in a city of diverse music styles and around the musical talents of his father, he understands the importance of creating and experiencing music. He combines his passion for music with several styles of dance to create a unique sound, not only heard, but felt by his listeners. With the recent addition of singer / songwriter Serenity, the music continues to evolve, enlighten, and stimulate the spirit.

Why this name?
It is a flawed society that causes art to be created within a financial means...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It gives independent artist a way to distribute to the world. I know how important this form of medium has become. For the industry, they should not try to rip off the artists in the hopes of some new pop icon. The industry of mainstream music needs to fail and new faces and ideas need to surface.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Most probably not, because no label or dollar is worth me losing control over my art.
Band History:
Tears of Technology was surrounded by music his entire life. He watched his father play the tenor sax in bands across America. By the time he was six, he was playing the piano. When his before teen years came along, he was playing the alto saxophone in elementary school. By the time he was 20 he was mixing on the wheels of steel at various clubs in the New Orleans area. These 10 years helped produce a skill and a style he calls 504. A style only defined in the city of New Orleans. A style unique and unlike the rest.

Tears of Technology appears on the Jive Electro release of Hardknox's single "Attitude" and the 42 Records compilation "Energized" with his hit track "XES 2.0". His producing experience comes from 15 years of turntablism mixing to the last 7 years of creating beats and grooves from scratch. An old school influence is definitely noted in this new school sound.

Tears of Technology produces full compositional tracks from his heart & inner soul. A beast of skills with hot remixes, new sounds and fresh grooves that test dance music's boundaries.
