Tears
of Technology
hails from a city that care forgot
long ago, New Orleans. Surrounded
by music his entire life, he gained
a natural talent for composing. Even
in elementary school, his saxophone
playing amazed the band teachers.
When
you grow up in a city like New Orleans,
music usually is the only thing that
you have.

In the 80's when he was around 12 years
old, local radio had his attention with
mix shows playing the hottest music
out at the time and mixing it all together.
He spent many late nights recording
to cassette the mixes of local DJ's
like DJ Mad Dog, Ray Walters & DJ Davey
D.
Around
the year 1987, he began to learn how
to mix like the DJ's he had been listening
too on the radio. One year later at
the age of 17, his tapes were a hit
among all his friends in his neighborhood.
If it was dance music you wanted,
you went and saw him for one of those
hot mix tape's.

These years help him learn to perfect
his mixing skills.
In
