Andy Caldwell founded IO Music Academy (Hollywood, CA) to further his impact on the global house and dance music underground by giving back to the community that made him a world-touring DJ and three-time Grammy nominee & Producer. His music production school attracted a myriad of talented students and international producers & DJs including Chee, Tsuruda, Octo Octa, Phase Fatale, Black Loops, and Salute. The deluge of different musical genres, production techniques, and songwriting skills inspired Caldwell and helped shape his next creative era in electronic music. Caldwell continues to push dance music culture to new ground as an artist, producer, entrepreneur and forward thinking innovator. Look for more releases and new episodes of his video podcast,“Origins”, later this year.
