Futuristic electronica and cyborg music. After years as a composer, I have finally accepted that I will forever write music that has a significant "sci-fi" vibe around it. Radio Free Midwich writer  Chrissie Caulfield , when writing a music review for A Futurist Music Anthology 2004-2014  described my other electroacoustic works as " What it’s really about is the rise of machine intelligence, of course; which is equally scary, possibly," or " too strange even for my twisted brain to work out."  You can read Caulfield's full music review here, if you dare: Dreams of the Future Related articles Meet on bio-inspired computing Data Science Roundup #12: Bad Data Guide, Machine Intelligence 2.0, and Which Database is Best?

Screened at the IAWM International Congress, Zemo Video Library, SEAMUS , and other venues throughout the US. First created by composer Sabrina Pena Young at the Deep Listening Gallery in Kingston, New York , for the Women and Identity Festival.  The entire animation for this work was created in an older version of Final Cut, using a single image of the composer distorted slowly over time using filters in Final Cut to create flowing animation that many have described as a "moving painting".  First created around 2004, this piece has remained to be one of Pena Young's electroacoustic masterworks and a unique example of the marriage of electronica and the visual medium.  Young is the foremost expert on virtual opera production and online collaboration with the debut of her machinima opera Libertaria: The Virtual Opera. Libertaria includes a live international cast and film crew, virtual choirs, sound synthesis, machinima animation, and contemporary choral writing...

PHOTO CREDIT: reportingtexas.com Low Down on 5 Music Mixing Mistakes Exposed: What You Need To Do I've helped hundreds of musicians improve their musical style. Sometimes it's as simply as fixing a few instruments, sometimes it's a total overhaul. Avoid these on your next mix.  Affordable Music Coaching at MusicXray 1. Lack of music variety One of the composition projects I am working on right now deals with creating a few dozen short musical snippets. Nice little music ditties that fit snugly behind dialogue. As I am composing, I listen to the tracks for any sound that seems to stand out inordinately from the mix. I am not talking about solos, drum fills, or riffs.
