Los Angeles-based Andy Caldwell wears many guises: Songwriter, producer, classically trained pianist and trumpeter, remixer, DJ and label owner (of the recently re-launched Uno Recordings). The journey of his 14-year and counting recording career has brought many accolades and honors, from writing Grammy nominated songs and sharing stages with legends like James Brown to making the tunes of choice for countless top DJs worldwide. Flying more than 200,000 miles and playing more than 100 shows a year, Andy Caldwell is a preeminent fixture on the global dance music scene.

In 2008, Kaskade’s “Sorry,” which Caldwell co-wrote (along with “Everything”), was nominated for a Grammy for Best Remixed Recording. Caldwell has also made waves as a remixer of both underground heroes and mainstream icons alike. He has collaborated with DJ/producer Behrouz on several remixes for the Yoshitoshi label, including the Grammy-nominated “Safe From Harm” by Narcotic Thrust and Hani’s “Never Felt This Way,” the latter of which was featured on Deep Dish’s Global Underground Toronto CD. His work for superstar artists has emerged officially for the likes of the Bee Gees and Jennifer Lopez and unofficially via his immensely popular bootleg of Nirvana’s seminal hit “Come As You Are.” Andy’s music has been licensed to dozens of television shows, video games and movies including ‘Six Feet Under’, ‘Sex in the City’, ‘FIFA Soccer 08’ and ‘Forces of Nature’.

His  knack  for A&R  leads  him to  find  and  sign  tunes that  have  gone  on  to be  licensed the world over, as in  the  Trentemøller  remix of  Yoshimoto’s  “Du What You Du.”   And  with  the  recent re-launch  of  his  label  Uno Recordings,  Caldwell  once  again  has an official  outlet  all  his  own to  nurture  and  discover tomorrow’s talents that are pushing stylistic boundaries.
