Carlos Mosquera, born in Venezuela, has been passionate about music from a young age. Through Venezuela’s National System of Youth and Children’s Orchestras and Choirs called “El Sistema,” a music education program that reaches 400,000 children, Carlos received his first job as a percussionist performer for the Simon Bolivar Orchestra. He then graduated with a B.A. in Sound Technology from the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA).

After graduating, Carlos has become immersed in music and sound technologies. He became the Recording Engineer for the L.A. Philharmonic, Sound Engineer for The Colburn School of Music in Los Angeles, Recording and Mixing Engineer for The Herb Albert School of Music at UCLA, and an L-ISA Mixing Engineer for L-Acoustics, and Audio Developer for L-Acoustics’ new immersive audio technology. As engineer, Carlos has worked on numerous major shows such as Lorde, Lady Gaga, Childish Gambino, Alt-J, LA Philharmonic, Deadmau5, Aerosmith, Bon Iver, Adelaide Philharmonic, Enrique Iglesias, Katy Perry and Cages.

On his own time, he developed a positional app called Guiding Sounds, for the visually impaired using inaudible impulses reproduced by speakers. It’s an accessible, scalable, and cost-efficient solution that allows blind individuals to access real-time information of their location, enabling them to find exactly where they are, and how to interact with the world in a whole new way, no internet required.

Carlos’s passion for music, sound, mixing, and coding extends beyond his professional career.
