Alex L'Estrange was surrounded by music from a young age. Growing up as the son of a classical pianist and a hi-fi speaker designer, he has pursued music and audio production throughout his life with immense passion.

 

As a producer, writer, mixer and mastering engineer, his ambition is to uncover the true nature of a song or soundscape. When represented authentically, recorded music has the power to create profound meaning, suspend disbelief, and transport the listener. Alex approaches audio as both a technical craft and an emotional endeavour.

 

He began his audio career after moving from the Byron Bay area to Brisbane to study. A lifelong musician, he joined several local bands and started experimenting with recording. He built his first studio in the basement of his share house, adding gear and decor each year until it naturally evolved into a professional space.

 

As a multi-instrumentalist and solo artist, he toured extensively throughout Australia and the UK. In 2017, he moved to London, immersing himself in the British and European music scenes and working at various studios. He ran his own production and mixing facility in East London for four years before returning to Australia in late 2021.

 

Alex has been nominated for an ARIA Award, received an ARIA number-one album in Blues and Jazz, and accrued tens of millions of streams across DSPs through his work with various artists. He holds a Bachelor of Music from QUT and currently works between Sydney and his own facility, Sound Aquarium, in the Byron Shire of New South Wales.
