biography

Luksch was born in Vienna as the son of Hedwig Luksch and the composer Georg Luksch . His brother is the Wienerlied composer Rudi Luksch. Georg O. Luksch received classical piano lessons from the age of five and graduated from the SAE Institute in 1987 as one of the first participants in Austria . In the first years of his career he worked with artists such as Falco , Nina Hagen and Jocelyn Brown . He led projects a. a. with Edelweiss and Bingo Boys . He is a musician, composer and sound engineer for u. a. Universum , ORF and movies . In 1992 he founded the Club 69 producer team together with Peter Rauhofer . Dance floor hits with international top acts such as Depeche Mode , Madonna , Rod Stewart , Britney Spears , Yoko Ono , Pet Shop Boys and Whitney Houston emerged .

In 2000 Luksch received the Grammy Award and two further nominations in 2001 and 2003. With the development of the Expanded Acoustic Recording Process (EAR), he expanded his field of activity to include purely acoustic music. On the basis of his research into the production technology of music from the 1950s to 1970s, a knowledge compendium for classical, jazz and world music was created. An example of the application of this field of research is the Latin Grammy nomination Best Latin Jazz Album 2014/15 for co-producing, recording, mixing and mastering Snow Owl's album Normas . Luksch teaches music production as a major at the Jam Music Lab University in Vienna.

In 2017 Luksch wrote the musical program Cissy & Hugo a Caracas with the actress Rita Hatzmann , produced by Ensemble21 and brought classical piano, electronics and theremin to Wienerlied as well as chansons with satirical musical numbers like Der Nowak or I wish myself a front tooth for my birthday by Cissy Kraner and Hugo Wiener on stage. The sound aesthetics of the 50s played an important role both in the arrangement technique and in the sound structure.
