Uptone Productions, Eindhoven

Uptone Productions is the happy offspring of Guido van Gestel’s musically infused brain. This is where he creates, mixes and does post audio production for TV shows and artists alike. While you’re reading this, he’s probably already added some more impressive clients to his portfolio, so if you’re interested in a more comprehensive list of his musical flexibility, make sure to check out the references tab.

A true music wizard who cannot read notes but has received praise from industry giants such as Roger Sanchez, David Guetta and Laidback Luke, Guido knew from early childhood that music was the road he was destined to take. His first interview led him to work for two years at the MTV Networks in Amsterdam, doing everything from audio commercials, intros & outros, and recording voice-overs for a number of TV shows.

The ability to connect to his clients and feel connected to them is a very important aspect in the Uptone way of doing things. This, alongside a blend of work ethics and passion make up for a neatly packed set of principles which make him stand out from the rest.

A true Eindhovenaar at heart, dedicated entrepreneur and huge Junkie XL fan, one of Guido’s favourite quotations might help in painting a clearer picture of what he stands for as an artist: “The voice of passion is better than the voice of reason. The passionless cannot change history.” - Czeslaw Milosz
