Composer / Producer / Keyboard player of many styles of music from dance to movie scores. Also known from Lipstick and G-Spot dance hits. Aliases: Chega, Pergosa.
René van Tol was born on June 30, 1970 in Hilversum. At the age of 9 he discovered that playing music (in his case the piano) was fun. His old fashioned piano teacher wanted to get rid of him right away because René was improvising after he had learned to play a music piece. So mostly autodidacticly he teached himself playing and composing music. He specialized himself in playing instruments the correct way on a keyboard.
At the age of 15 he started his own business in creating music compositions. From this time René started to know many people in the music business and a few years later he was asked to start working fulltime for a Dutch Music Production Company.
Many productions were born after this time and some of them raised high in the charts (Lipstick / G-Spot). René also arranged music for other producers like Humprey Proeve and the song 'Every Body Is a Star' (Arcade Music) became famous worldwide.
Today René also makes music scores that really come from his heart. Creating the right music for images or situations is his big passion. You can visit his website at: http://www.muziekcomposities.nl
