Grammy®, Dove and Stellar Award nominated producer Michael Coston hails from Queens, NY. Influenced by musical parents he found drumming to be his primary instrument at the age of three. Simultaneously maintaining his extraordinary talent for art as well as music he expanded quickly with both art forms learning to play a multitude of instruments.
A product of the gifted LaGuardia High School of Music & Art in upper Manhattan he indulged heavily in the arts and developed his passion for jazz music to the likes of Miles Davis and John Coltrane, Charlie Parker, Wayne Shorter, Return To Forever and The Mahavishnu Orchestra. Despite being an art student he would take every opportunity available to sit-in with the jazz band and grow to idolize the styles of master drummers Elvin Jones, Billy Cobham, Tony Williams, Lenny White, Omar Hakim, Kenny Washington and Narada Michael Walden amongst others.
He then elected to pursue his artistic roots into the field of Architecture where he studied at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. Yet his love for one art form did not diminish the other. During his college years he established various bands which performed Top 40 gigs at clubs throughout New York and Long Island. Following college as an architect he established a recording studio in his Brooklyn brownstone apartment where he produced artist demos and further refined his composing and engineering skills.
With that initial success he relocated his studio to Rockefeller Center in midtown Manhattan where he further expanded his production and publishing business and caliber of talent. After a streak of Jazz, Pop and R&B projects with aspiring popular artists he then turned to building his catalog of songs which among others included co-producing two Grammy, Dove and Stellar award nominated albums for the phenomenal vocalist Yolanda Adams.
Working from his personally owned recording studio, he is now heavily involved with composing a wide spectrum of music for filmscore, video entertainment software and commercial projects as well as his own personal compilation of unique Jazz and R&B discographies.
Michael Coston is a 15+ year voting member of:
The National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences (NARAS) The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) The National Music Publishers Association/The Harry Fox Agency (NMPA/HFA).

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell." Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A. X..Press

As your friend we like to inform you exclusively about our next release: Gabriel & Castellon - Soul ft. Jerique Allan, available on Beatport & I-Tunes July 27
Soul, as the title is self explanatory, is a deep subtle soulful gem complimented with haunting goose bump creating string arrangements and pounding beats which creates a sinister, yet uplifting vibe. To top it all off, Soul has been given the hypnotic vocals of one of the best kept secrets in vocal county, Jerique Allan. Jerique may not be one of the most prolific vocalists around but his vocal work speaks for itself. So far, Jerique has worked with acclaimed producers like Fedde Le Grand, Robbie Rivera, Jean Claude Ades, D.O.N.S., Sandy Rivera and DJ Jeroenski.
Remixes comes courtesy of that other incredible duo Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano (Dirty Dutch Music), Little Mountain Recordings finest Muzikjunki and Rotterdam based house producer Andy Callister. Enjoy!
