Olivier Desmet
Co-Owner, House Buyer, On-line Management |
Born in Brussels, Belgium, Olivier Desmet launched his career in the music business working as A&R and promotions manager for the Afterhours Music label in Chicago. During his stay in Chicago, Olivier began producing music under the guidance of respected Chicago artist Mazi (aka Audio Soul Project). An offer to manage the world-renowned Moulton Studios facility for Jay-J and Chris Lum prompted Olivier to move
to San Francisco in February 2002.
Currently, Olivier lives and works in San Francisco where he runs his label Amenti Music, one of the most respected imprints in the business. Amenti continues to gain popularity thanks to stellar releases by artists such as Swirl Peepz, ECB, JT Donaldson, Inland Knights, and many others.
Olivier has produced and remixed over 25 records for top labels such as Aroma ("A Dedication" by Oh Dee),
Siesta Music, Amenti Music, Nightshift, and Tango Recordings.
His productions have been favorites with top jocks such as Mark Farina (who licensed one of Olivier's tracks for his most recent CD on Om Records), DJ Heather, Derrick Carter, DJ Sneak, Raoul Belmans, and Fred Everything.
Olivier has collaborated on many productions with Chuck Diesel, and has also worked on projects with DJ Spettro, Daniell Spencer, Ken from East Coast Boogiemen, Joey Youngman and Demarkus Lewis.
A fourteen year veteran behind the decks, Olivier has played venues and events all over the world, such as the Sunday night "Devotion" party at the Endup in San Francisco, the celebrated FOOD club in Brussels, Belgium, and Tool Club in Seoul, Korea.
