Who's Who in the Crew? Spotlight on: the Front of House Sound Mixer


MICHEL TYABJI was born in India, but has lived all over the world, thanks to his parents, who both worked for UNICEF. Because of this experience, he has no particular affiliation to any single country. Rather, he views himself as evidence of our collective and inevitable similarities and has made it his work to affect resonance for this by being a bridge and advocate for music and other artistic works across borders and cultural divides. Thus far, he has recorded music, made films, and put on festivals in Africa, Asia, and the USA. The vehicle for these activities in the USA is Limitless Sky Records and Sounds Ready. www.limitlesssky.net and www.soundsready.com


Michel is SO good at what he does! He's been working with Joy and Larry to find the perfect sound balance during songs, sound effects, and when using mics. If something doesn't work, he always suggests trying new things to make it just right; he is the ultimate problem solver!

I also told him that Joy's, Ally's, and my favorite song to dance to during breaks is Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire. When he heard the music, he came over and suggested another great movie by the same director: Taal - check it out!
