Bio
Stéphane Vera (known to many as Teknostep) is a widely skilled and prolific session player, producer, DJ and remixer. Though born in Geneva, Switzerland, and raised in France, Vera has called Toronto his home since 1997; having also previously lived in New York, Ottawa, and Montreal. Having been a Royal Conservatory of Music piano and drum teacher for 5 years, his innate talent and polished skills are undisputed. Throughout his childhood, Vera was a student of a wide range of instruments, and his original musical productions continue to enhance the just perception that he is a steady riser in the world of song. In his wealth of musical experience and contribution, Vera has been a radio host (on CKCU 93.1 FM + CHUO 89.1 FM - until 1997), keyboardist for Roy Davis Jr (since 1996), keyboardist and founding member of Toronto's original live house band, Galactica Blast (established in 1996), composer for film & television, and has over 50 singles and compilation appearances, on an extensive list of labels: Fabric (England), ZYX (England), Universal (Germany), Sony BMG (Germany + Canada), Casa Rosso (Germany), Combination (Germany), Blitz (Sweden), Soulstar (Italy), Journees (San Francisco), Tuningspork (Philadelphia), Nite Life Collective (Chicago), Large (Chicago), Undaground Therapy (Chicago), Headphoniq (Chicago), PolyGram (Canada), Fossilfuel (Ottawa), Nice+Smooth (Toronto), Stickman (Toronto), Spot (Toronto), Chair (Toronto), and Hi-Bias (Toronto), amongst others. You'll be hearing a lot from Stéphane Vera, so stayed tuned - Left of the Dial. [WORDS: MdB, Klublife Magazine] -

Following the sub-strata burblings of "UB-313", Eris Aphelion is temporarily

inhabited with lifeforms giving rise to a compartmentalized
interpretation of the grand chao. With "Elyptical Flyby", this
temporary situation is observed via low altitude trans-space vessel. A
mesh of energies can be interpreted giving rise to conflicting patterns
which, forced to interact self dilute and reorganize into a latticework
governed ultimately by the functions and direction of conflicting
automata. A Gridwork is formed. Understanding the principles of fluid
dynamics and solar processes, these lifeforms utilize cosmic substances
and magnetic forces to exist in accordance with the laws governing
reciprocal planetary maintenance.
