Louis C. Oberlander , sometimes also Louis Oberlander (born May 29, 1966 in Sofia , Bulgaria ) is a Bulgarian composer, musician, photographer and actor.

Life

His early musical education began at the age of five, after his mother had emigrated with him to Hamburg. His first instrument was the piano, which he gave up after only three years in favor of playing football. At the age of ten he learned to play the guitar in order to found his first band "The Producers" the following year. Over the next few years he learned other instruments, including drums, bass and saxophone.

He made his first experiences with computer-aided production at the age of 18 with the Commodore C 64 and the “Supertrack” sequencer program from C-Lab. This was followed by “Creator” / “Notator” on the Atari ST and finally to the current programs Logic Pro, Cubase / Nuendo, Pro Tools, Reason and Ableton Live on Apple computers.

During his A-levels he got to know the young Dirk Darmstaedter and Christoph Kaiser through a music publisher . From this group, the "Real McCoys" developed in 1985, a rock band that after two years was renamed The Jeremy Days with an expanded line-up . They achieved commercial success with their first album of the same name. After eight years, five studio albums and 13 videos, they went on a creative break, which, apart from a one-off reunion appearance, still lasts today.

Louis C. Oberlander was then active as a songwriter (music for "Zweimal 2nd Choice", Bernd Begemann ) and producer. He produced remixes ( Salt'n Pepa "Push It" ) and music for commercials (BMW, Daimler-Chrysler, Deutsche Telekom, Deutsche Bank), the album Endlich by Bernd Begemann and his own project Palomino (Electric Silvergrass) . All productions were created in his "Poolside Studios".

In 2005, Oberlander emigrated to Los Angeles. Since then he has starred in numerous short films, feature films and television series.
