Louis combines his training in percussion, his passion for electronic dance music and his understanding of movement, to create energetically percussive compositions, uncovering the origins of rhythm within the body and its relationship to the music.
Following a decade of touring Aus, NZ and North America as a DJ under internationally acclaimed Command Q, Louis began working as a freelance composer, scoring across the mediums of dance and theatre where his work has been presented in North America, Venice and throughout Australia.
Louis has collaborated with multiple award winning dance and theater companies, directors and independent Choreographers, such as Australasian Dance Collective, Milwaukee Ballet, Queensland Ballet, Scott Elstermann & Venice Biennale, Brooke Leeder & PERTH FESTIVAL, The Last Great Hunt, Izzac Carroll & Project Animo, STOMPIN & Ten Days on the Island, Sally Richardson & NICA, and Mitchell Harvey Company.
Most recent is his work with Perth Festival 2024, for an independent production of Logue Lake, and in collaboration with Jack Lister for Papillon as part of Queensland Ballet’s Bespoke 2024.
Louis was the recipient of Minderoo Foundation’s inaugural Artist Fund 2021, as well as involvement in STRUT Dance’s SEED residency and SITU-8 programs, TasDance’s AIR with Robert Tinning, and was awarded a 2022 Performing Arts WA award for 'Best Composition 2022’.
