[edit] Biography

At the age of 15, Reyn Ouwehand’s musical career started with an assignment from London: System 3 asked him to compose for their computer games on the Commodore 64 and Amiga. In 1995, at the age of 23, he started his own company Prevue Productions. He built his own studio and started working as a producer, studio musician and composer.

Nowadays Reyn is an established producer, who worked with national artists Kane (Sony/BMG, platinum album “Fearless” in 2005), Coparck (V2), El Pino & the Volunteers (Excelsior Recordings) and Sita (Sony/BMG). Since he is a versatile multi-instrumentalist (keyboards, bass guitar, guitar, drums) and skilled arranger and programmer, artists outside of the Netherlands love to work with him as well. From ICP Studios in Brussel he works for French, Belgian and Swiss artists like Benjamin Biolay (EMI), Stephan Eicher (Barclay/Universal), Souad Massi (Universal) , Mayane Delem (EMI) and Isabelle Boulay (V2). As a composer, Reyn loves to work on movie soundtracks. A big succes (platinum sales) Reyn had with the children’s book Woezel & Pip, for which he has composed all music. Reyn is appreciated for his personal style, and the warmth of the compositions and arrangements. In 2006 he had his first assignments from USA: a remix for Finnish rock band HIM (Warner Bros) and award-winning Hawaiian vocal group NaLeo.

In 2007, Reyn will start with his dream studio: a beautiful church near Amsterdam, with sleeping and relaxing facilities. The studio will be built completely according to his own wishes, and will be filled with his huge collection of analogue synthesisers, vintage drumkits, guitars and toy pianos. And of course, a church organ...
