We’re very proud to welcome to the studio one of Chicago’s long-time heads, Steven Tang (Emphasis Recordings), who’s opted to throw down a set that showcases his involvement in the windy city’s dance music scene over the past 20 years. He’s performed all over Chicago over the years, slinging house, techno, electro, new wave, and italo, as well as being featured at DEMF, and has released several of his own smooth productions on his Emphasis label and elsewhere. Enjoy!
