Maurice Gallegos |

|
|
|
|
If you have, or can develop, more than one
talent, you will optimize your opportunities to succeed,"
explains Maurice Gallegos, CEO and President of Gallco Enterprises.
For 15 years, that philosophy has served him well. Honing
his songwriting and production skills, Mr. Gallegos worked his
way up the music business achieving success with his remix of
Des'ree's (Sony) "You Gotta Be" which was certified
Gold. |
|
|
|
|
|
He then won a Grammy for mixing Ruben Blades'
1996 album, "La Rosa De Los Vientos." Through
strategic planning and development, Mr. Gallegos broke into television
and film. He worked on the soundtrack for "The Ref"
(Tri-Star Pictures), a comedy featuring Dennis Leary and Kevin
Spacey, as well as many independent films. Mr. Gallegos eventually
went on to produce music videos as well as television commercials
for Fortune 500 companies such as Procter and Gamble, McDonalds,
and Levi's. |
|
|
|
|
|
He won a CLIO Award (the advertising industry's
highest honor) for producing a Coca Cola spot watched by approximately
1 billion people during the World Cup. Presently, alternative
Hip Hop group, The Arsonists (Matador/Capitol) are recording
their album at Mr. Gallegos' studios, while he is busy producing
their music videos. Continuing his philosophy of multi-service
enterprise, Mr. Gallegos is developing Urbandigital.com, a new
portal specializing in music (Rock, Hip Hop, R&B, etc.),
fashion, events, news and free email. |
