Class of 2000
“It will only stay a dream, if all you’re going to do is dream about it. Do something about it†– Touvan
a former student of Dance Production at Northgate High in Walnut Creek California, Touvan has developed his passion for dancing in the spotlight and working his way into a journey of organized sound.
Touvan has always had an underlying connection with how music was all around us. As a young boy, he would beatbox and hand drum to random everyday sounds such as construction in progress, car alarms, elevator music, etc. His mind would constantly process how such sounds could make sense as music if organized the right way. Repeatedly playing famous songs of all generations on the boombox and listening to how all instrumental elements worked together into something that made sense. The passion was there, Touvan simply had a love for music.
It all really began at 18, when he was introduced to electronic music. Encouraged to immediately take the first step and get involved, Touvan purchased his first set of turntables and began the art of mixing. Eventually upgrading to industry standard DJ equipment, he began playing at dance venues where he was captured by the reaction of the people on the dancefloor. In 2004, Touvan began piecing together his studio to show the world what he could contribute to the world of music. After years of learning the science of musical composition, he began composing tracks that gained the attention of everyone that gave nothing but great feedback to the unique sounds that he has put on the table.
Touvan currently works with international labels Peak Hour Music, Star 69 Records(Peter Rauhofer), Prompt Digital, Eden Recordings(Donald Glaude), and a few other prospects. Touvan has already gained some global attention with promotional commercial remixes such as Timberland and Britney Spears, as well as reaching the top 100 on the webs largest electronic music distributor Beatport. Catch a listen for yourself and see what all the hype is about while you can.
