I'm Andrew (Andy) Dalmau
I've been making and manipulating various noises for almost 10 years now and since I graduated RMIT's Advanced Diploma in Sound Production and held senior industry positions, I've become rather good at it. I love working together with creative people to produce cool products.
I have a great enthusiasm and dedication for creative industries coupled with extensive experience and advanced qualifications in Sound Production and Audio/Visual Technology.
If it involves noise, vision and creativity I'm into it!
My creative journey started in 2008 when I picked up the guitar. I attempt to play many styles including punk, rock, blues and jazz. I've played rhythm/lead guitar, bass guitar and lead and backing vocals in a number of bands, I've also worked as a primary school level guitar teacher. Not satisfied with the spotlight alone, I began to explore other creative outlets starting with work experience with the Victoria Police Showband, leading to Sound and Vision industry studies with RMIT, and culminating in various industry and freelance roles.

WHITE NIGHT 2016
Technical Crew Leader, Audio Engineer and Post Production Editor.
Staging Electroplasm, an outdoor multimedia production by Feverstone at one the world's biggest arts events, White Night Melbourne 2016, was an immense challenge with many potential problems.
One of the key reasons it was so successful and trouble free on the night was Andy Dalmau's skilled, experienced, calm and resourceful AV project management under sometimes difficult conditions.
Feverstone heartily recommends Andy and looks forward to working with him again."
