hi!

we only remember something when it’s attached to an emotion.

emotions let us know we’re alive.

music is the language of emotion.

we love each other because of music.

i make music.

i make love.

my latest single, “FCK Yes” is available on SoundCloud.

bit of me

thought

my name is whatever you want it to be, but i’ve been “Tuan” since birth.

i’m an artist.

i’m a music producer and dj.

i’m a journalist and technologist.

i’m making lots of mistakes along the way.

i’m a being having a human experience.

i produce and DJ under the name “tuanfluence”.

man meets boy

i studied and played classical piano as a kid—but honestly, i hated it. mostly because i always had to “practice.” it was painful. but expressing myself through art was always a thing: drawing, painting, singing.

who knew though, that things would end up going full circle. if i didn’t practice enough, i’d always get in trouble. but now, making music is on my mind the moment i wake up and it’s on my mind when i go to sleep.

i realized that all artists, dancers, and listeners, are just people who want to be with each other and connect, as kids, and not get “in trouble.”

…

i hope my music moves you and makes the kid in you come out to play.

listen up

here’s a Spotify playlist featuring some favorites that moved me. maybe they can move you too. songs span the last several years and i update the play list on a regular basis with both new and old bangers from a variety of artists and sub-genres under electronic music.

i hope you enjoy the list!

hit me up

interested in working together? or maybe just to say hi?
