About Me


Biography Zero Apostle (Micah Hood) is a one man act from Ft. Worth, Texas that started testing the electronic genres in the year 2000. A year later, he released his first full-length album (not found anywhere for sale) to friends entitled "Decryption." With it's retro yet trance-driving sounds, the album was a token and foundation for later album's, EP's, and Remixes to follow it. "Decryption" later followed up with an EP of the album's "High Speed" entitled "The High Speed EP," featuring remixes from "Decryption" and new versions of "High Speed" with a bonus track. Broadening his horizons, a year later he released another personal album "1 Mile to Everything" featuring songs in a style that he previously never thought about recording, such as Slow House, Drum 'n' Bass, and Hard Downtempo. He eventually began studying music at Texas Tech University in Music Performance. In this time he released 4 albums in 4 years: "Anthems for a Tortured Child" "Eden" "Inside an Infinite Realm" and the latest "Cause." Remixer and Collaborator Micah is a current remixer for Nine Inch Nails, Celldweller, OCremix.org and has entered for various trance music artist remix competitions. He also remixes Capcom's famous Mega Man music, with it's unforgettable tunes and rich 8-bit lines that could easily translate to electronic music for remixes. He is always open for new bands to remix their tunes. Along side Micah and his Zero Apostle act comes Justin Stewart's act, Subject 98, an act that has been along side Zero Apostle's for years. They have collaborated together many times, and recently formed their own act "98 Below Zero" as a test to see how the genres collide.
