My name is Łukasz Drozd and I come from Rybnik, Poland. I am a composer, producer and I also arrange music. Making music has always been my greatest desire and each contact with music was connected with the process of creating. Now I see, that everything what I did in the past led to making music at any free time I had. Music gave me freedom and developed my imagination.
I often avoided the patterns and models given by a typical music school. These years of music experiments enabled me to get certain knowledge, skills and gain experience. The biggest motivation to work is the possibility to make music for others.
I have the opportunity to work with different artists that needs versatile approach to music. I am not afraid of experiments. Experiments allow me to enter new music dimensions. I do my best to proof that each musical composition is unique and exceptional. I try to find the ideas in music of which the artists are often unaware. At first I was fascinated by electronics and digital world of sounds. Now I like combining different worlds: live, analogue and digital. Nothing gives as many possibilities as the combination of these three.

Lots of things happened and some time passed till I was ready to produce music and record
it for others. In the past I spend more time for my own productions and as an acoustic worker on stage. These projects which influenced me most were mainly jazz projects. Working with jazz and close to jazz bands helped me in ganing experience and knowledge as a pianist.
Till this day I try to make use of this musical potential to a maximum. However, in my music productions modernity is the most crucial and I always look for new solutions.I dream about creating something new, something fascinating and delighting for others.
