Stephane 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 been a piano and
drum teacher at the Royal Conservatory of Music 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, keyboardist for Roy Davis Jr,
composer for film & television for BBC, and
remixing tracks for P'taah, Ivana Santilli, Dynarec,
and Jordan Fields. You'll be hearing a lot from Stephane
Vera in 2005, so stayed tuned - Left Of The Dial.
