New York-based producer, composer and sound artist Nick Zanca has been releasing music under the name Mister Lies since 2012. The project began in a Chicago dorm room with the release of a four-track EP, Hidden Neighbors – over the years, his music has inhabited a specific intersection between intimacy and atmosphere in a maximalist mosaic of field recordings, sample-based textures, glitchy synthetic soundscapes and nocturnal pop songs. Zanca currently lives in Queens and is a founding member of the band Quiet Friend.

The goal for the SoundWorks Collection is simple; we are dedicated to profiling the greatest and upcoming sound minds from around the world and highlight their contributions. The SoundWorks Collection was created by Director Michael Coleman in November of 2009 in a partnership with MIX Magazine, several audio focused college schools and programs, and the support of the online sound community worldwide.

The SoundWorks Collection takes you behind the scenes and straight to the dub stage for a look into audio post-production for feature films, video game sound design, and original soundtrack composition. This exclusive and intimate video series focuses on individuals and teams behind-the-scenes bringing to life some of the worlds most exciting projects.

Music written & produced by ElleTerese. Tracks are arranged from live improv sets on my Twitch channel, twitch.tv/ElleTerese. Subscribe on Twitch for download links! Thank you for listening :)
