'''Llewellyn Fouché ( Lewell). Born 01 October 1974 in Welkom South Africa.''' Music artist/ Producer/Composer

I have always thought of music as the number-one love in my life. As a kid I taught myself some basic piano from listening to classical music while on holidays at my grandma's. I guess it was at that stage I realized I had a natural ear for music, and from then on I was always either secretly writing songs during my childhood or mucking around with tunes on my Dad's guitar." In 2000, i began to use a computer in my home and discovered computer-based production, as well as the network of resources available via the Internet. I started with Fruity Loops. Influences at the time probably were Armin van Buuren, Cosmic Gate, Ferry Corsten, DJ Tiesto, and Darude. The internet did wonders for me. It meant I could interact with artists all over the world. People I used to keep in contact with (and still do with some), and mostly learn from.

South African Artist Lewell brings us intriguing, emotion-drenched music in the Downtempo, Trance, and Ambient Electronic genres. In one of many rave reviews, Robert Da Silva of the Daily Music Scene describes Lewell's work as "shaded toward the dark, deeper side of Ambient and Downtempo music, either as if exploring caverns and subterranean worlds, or unraveling the complexities of mathematical relationships." Lewell's unique music will be making waves for many years to come.
