Ernesto Gaita is making waves with his music. The Toronto native and lo-fi specialist is finding a way to connect to people with his music without the help of a major label. However, Gaita’s success is not measured by views. Rather, it is measured by the impact his music has on people.
Gaita is currently independent in the music scene. However, he notes, “I’ve collaborated with small local labels and written tracks for some international artists, but that’s all been under me.” Not only is Gaita independent, but he produces his own music too. While producing his own music, Gaita admitted, “Sometimes I let other artists whose styles are unique or different than mine add elements to my beats.” The biggest musical inspiration for Gaita was Little Walter and Muddy Waters. He said, “The way they just grew up on the streets and had one instrument they could own completely was exciting and respect worthy to me.”
This spring will be huge for Gaita as he is set to release his latest upcoming project. The project will be a lo-fi mix of up to ten hour’s worth of music. “I wanted to create something that will help anyone be elevated yet calm to a place to find clarity,” Gaita said. The project is named Mindfulness On Repeat, and it is set to drop this spring.
