Trafalgar13 Music House, a leading independent studio for composers in Spain since 2004, has landed in Los Angeles to expand its talent and its unquestionable influence on the American Hispanic market. Founder Toni M. Mir, a composer and producer nominated for the Goya Award and who has worked with such directors as Oscar-winning Alejandro Amenabar, said that expansion is something that comes naturally, especially in this mythical movie city so closely linked to his own career.“Bear in mind that Los Angeles, besides making movies, also creates a lot of advertising, because it has a lot of agencies and many producers and they’re filming all the time – so opening a studio here suits us at all levels,” Toni said. “Being in Los Angeles and in Barcelona gives us a cultural diversity, a musical diversity that helps us tremendously in either and both of the two markets.” Trafalgar13, with its highly talented team of composers, producers and sound engineers, has more than 20 years of professional experience creating top-level sound tracks for international award-winning movies and documentaries, spots for the most prestigious brands and agencies, plus programs and series for TV channels all around Europe. “What makes us different from other music producers in the U.S. and Europe is that Trafalgar 13 is a…production boutique. I supervise everything with the greatest of care from my own point of view. We can do a lot of productions at the same time, but always very carefully, I’m always involved in every project. Every project is unique and carried out with every detail polished to perfection, and then we make the whole thing great,” he explained.Working in two widely separated time zones (Europe and America) enables the music production company to offer a much more complete service. “The idea is that much of the production for the U.S. is done from Spain, which doesn’t just make us more economically competitive, but also makes us a ‘twenty-four,’ in a manner of speaking. The music is composed in the U.S. and at night is recorded/produced in Spain, and the next day it’s ready to go. It’s an ongoing, non-stop operation, and what’s interesting about it is how fast it gets done, above all the advertising.”
