Besides producing music, JD Young has written a Focal Press book called ‘Home Studio Mastering’ and is the lead audio plugin developer for the companies SoundSpot, W.A. Production, Denise and BABY Audio. Yuri Guerin – when not hosting social events – can mostly be found in the studio producing bands, or on stage with his instrumental space funk band ‘Baskar’. JD and Yuri share a love for education, and are determined to pass on the knowledge they received so generously from other educators before them.
