Ivan Eastley
Known for Sound
Being born into a creative family (son of Max Eastley) music, film and art have always been very central aspects of his life. Having completed a BSc in Chemistry, however, He also takes great interest in science and technology. He firmly believes that there are many crossover points between the arts and the sciences and that a synergistic relationship exists between a great number of different fields.
His journey as an electronic music producer began in 1999 by playing the PlayStation game, ‘Music’. Even though this simple game only involved arranging pre-made loops on a timeline, it opened a gateway of possibilities and inspired him to begin using Garageband in 2004. Next, he moved on to Reason 3.0 in 2007 and began producing music professionally. Nowadays, Logic X is his weapon of choice for all things audio.
