Elizabeth Lain on the independence that sample libraries afford, the self-defeating nature of elitism, and how classical music's relevance hinges on the inclusion of marginalized voices.

Elizabeth is a soundtrack and New Music composer based in Seattle, WA. She works across a wide variety of projects from film and games, to custom theme music and notifications for internet broadcasts and audio books.

She is a very visual composer and want to make sure her audience can share in this experience.

She is very passionate about telling stories from non-mainstream perspectives, whether it’s in collaborative works like film or in her own standalone compositions. She feels it’s important to tell diverse stories from multitudes of life experiences.

In addition to composition, she also does location recording, audio mixing, dialog cleanup, and sound design.
