Steven Tang

In the 90's, Tang studied Radio Broadcasting at Chicago's Columbia College and sporadically dj-ed at local events, small clubs and house parties while working on his next goal to set up a personal recording studio to create his own productions. 1998 saw the establishment of Emphasis Recordings with his debut release, "Windy City EP." It garnered the attention of Ewan Jensen (Red Ember Records/Moods & Grooves) and two years later, contributed "Visions Far Away" for Red Ember's "Deepsounds Vol. 1" compilation. Fast forward to Memorial Day Weekend 2002, Tang performed at DEMF (Detroit Electronic Music Festival) and was one of the featured artists on the unofficial DEMF "Generator: Detroit" CD compilation. After another brief hiatus, Steven and his label Emphasis Recordings mark a full return in 2006, with new music under the alias Obsolete Music Technology and has since also produced EPs for labels like Aesthetic Audio (Detroit), Machining Dreams (Chicago), Generator (Chicago), Eargasmic Recordings (Chicago), Syncrophone (France), Dolly (Netherlands), Smallville (Germany).
