Federico Vindver
Luis Federico Vindver (born 18 August 1982) is an Argentine record producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist based in Los Angeles, California.
Vindver has produced along with Timbaland and worked with artists such as Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Coldplay, Yung Tory, Beto Cuevas, Tee Grizzley, Nathy Peluso, Meghan Trainor, Pablo Alborán, Brockhampton, Ludacris, the Blossom, New City and Wisin among others.
He has worked on records that have earned him Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards, and he was named Top 5 producer and writer by Billboard.
Vindver was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. As a young man, he left the country during its financial crisis in 2002, visiting Spain and Mexico before receiving a full piano scholarship to the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami in Florida. While he studied jazz at college, he learned other musical genres elsewhere. He was playing in a practice room at UM when he was approached and asked if he would play in a local African-American church. There he learned about gospel, R&B and soul. He then became interested in technology and production.
"I was living in a practically destitute situation, because my parents couldn't help me financially and even though I had the full scholarship, I lived in a place where I didn't even have a bed," Vindver said. "At that time, an Argentine friend who lived in Miami gave me a computer that he didn't use, and there I downloaded cracked software to make music, and I started putting together the backing tracks for these gospel groups. As I did that, I started to like that a lot and I started to get more interested in producing, at first with the bands I played in."
In 2008, while still in college, he briefly became keyboardist and show producer for Lauryn Hill.
After graduation in 2008, Vindver met Ricky Martin's musical director who connected him with Franco De Vita, and he worked with him as arranger and keyboardist. Then he co-wrote the song "Basta Ya" for Martin's Música + Alma + Sexo album, and toured to support it. Vindver continued to tour, playing keyboards with Latin artists Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, then joined his wife to live in Los Angeles, California. At that time, he decided to focus full-time on production. In 2017, through manager/music executive Gary Marella, Vindver met Timbaland and both started working together. They made tracks for rock band Muse, pop vocalist Noah Cyrus, R&B singer Zayn.
In December 2018, Vindver and Timbaland were producing rap artist Saweetie and Lil Mosey, when Kanye West came to the studio. The next summer Vindver and West met again, and bonded over their mutual Christian faith. His early experience playing gospel in Miami churches appealed to West, and they decided to work together on the latter's next album, Jesus Is King.
