Diego

Diego is a Chilean songwriter, music producer, multi-instrumentalist and educator. His journey with music started 21 years ago.

During his adolescence he took electric guitar and vocal private lessons, while developing his skills writing songs.

In 2011, Diego enrolled in Escuela Moderna De Música y Danza (Santiago de Chile) where he studied music theory, composition, musical arrangements, piano and music culture. It was there that he learned how to compose different musical genres and became a multi instrument player. His study of bass has allowed him to dive deep into the concept of groove and how the rhythm section works.  And picking up the ukulele gave him a fresh perspective on songwriting, creative workflows and how to play popular music.

In 2017, Diego earned 2 diplomas in 101 Training Center (Santiago de Chile), acquiring a wide knowledge in music production and studio recording techniques. Through this training, Diego learned to work with different digital audio workstations, to record different musical instruments, get familiar with studio gear and to communicate properly with musicians when collaborating.  Diego moved to Canada  in 2021, where he studied live sound, music business, contracts, concert promotion, music marketing and more at the Harris Institute Of Arts (Toronto).

As a Music Producer, Diego has specialized in a variety of music genres such as Pop, R&B, Dance Music, Funk, Rock and Latin Music. He has been part of different bands, collaborating with many musicians and always fulfilling the role of leader.

As an artist, Diego has written and produced with singers from all around the globe and performed in different venues in Chile and Australia. You can find him in digital music platforms as “Diego Mar”.
