Louis Gaston

With almost 30 years of professional experience in all areas of the sound and music industry, I'm highly motivated and adept at working to tight deadlines on multiple projects with meticulous attention to detail, both independently and with collaborators. As someone who has worked on a diverse range of musical genres, I’m extremely proficient at adapting my writing and production style to suit a specific brief.

Brief Summary
I specialise in sound design, music composition, audio restoration, dialogue editing & sound mixing for award-winning short films, animation, major brand advertising and public awareness campaigns. My original compositions have also featured in dramas and documentaries broadcasted on mainstream channels that include Sky, ITV and the BBC.

History
My career started in dance music during the Acid House explosion of the late 80s. Since then I have produced and remixed major club classics such as The Thrillseekers 'Synaesthesia' (51st State), Y Traxx 'Mystery Land' (Kevin & Perry Go Large) and countless other releases by major artists which include 10 that entered the UK top 40, plus a further 6 in the UK top 75. Many of these have also featured on compilations released by Global Underground, Ministry Of Sound, Euphoria and Kitsune Maison. I have also been an established club DJ performing at venues and festivals around the world with a successful podcast series featured on iTunes and guest appearances on BBC Radio One, Kiss FM and XFM.
