About Louis
Louis Sterling is a music composer, sound designer and mixing engineer based between Bristol and London, UK. He works across the film, television and music industries.
A member of BECTU, British Music Collection and Black Artists Database, Sterling began his career at the age of seven, where he trained as a chorister under Dr. Peter King of Bath Abbey. Upon leaving school, his music gained substantial recognition from BBC Music and the Canadian record label URBNET.
In 2018, his debut album served as the inaugural release for 99Chants, a contemporary record label spearheaded by visionary Italo-German composer David August. Sterling’s debut album, Adisceda, was deemed by music giant Rough Trade Records as "Outstanding". Meanwhile, Headphone Commute described it as a "modern-classical meets electronic marvel." The album was mastered at Black Knoll Studios in New York by Rafael Anton Irisarri before making its way into vinyl collections across the UK, US, and Europe. Eventually, it caught the attention of Venetian composer Gigi Masin, who invited Louis to perform the opening shows for his Vahiné album tour on stages across the UK in March 2023.
Since 2016, Sterling's forward-thinking approach to sound and music has been recognised by BBC 6 Music, as well as accolades like the 2015 'Best Act of BBC Music Introducing in the West' broadcast and the 2020 Composer's Award from Sound and Music UK. His performances at Omeara, London Bridge, and the Liverpool Philharmonic Music Hall have further solidified his reputation as a respected sound artist.
Beyond the facets of composition, Sterling has assisted production and sound editing for Channel 4’s core team, Branded Entertainment, curated radio shows for BBC Radio 1’s peak-hour Breakfast Show with Greg James, and supported Warner Bros’ historical post-production sound facility De Lane Lea in Soho, marking his robust network across the music and entertainment industries.
In October 2024, his score for BOUND– a short-film directed by Abigail Feavers, Channel 4) was selected for the Cannes Indie Shorts Award. He is currently working on his second full-length album.
