Chris Gilcher
COMPOSER & SOUNDDESIGNERBiography
Chris Gilcher began composing and producing more than 30 years ago. Although he started off as a guitarist, he was quickly drawn into the world of synthesizers and electronic music. Next to composing for Film, TV or Commercials, this is still a central part of his musical career. He released on a variety of different labels and compilations (Virgin Records, Universal Music and Mercury). The best known tracks as part of the project Levitation are probably More Than Ever People and Out Of Time, released on the world-famous Café del Mar compilation series and featured on countless TV shows and commercials. He also composed for production music libraries like Universal Publishing Production Music (UPPM), InStyle Music Canada, EON Sounds Canada, Klanglobby and many others.
