Jalyn is a multi-faceted music producer who leads visual projects and develops music scores for ad campaigns, TV shows and films through his company, Music By Jalyn.  After scoring Shandra McDonald's film, Can't Let Go, Jalyn quickly gained attention in the indie world and has since gone on to score music full-time for recording artists, brands, films/TV, and for fans.

But Jalyn is first and foremost a musician, an instrumentalist who plays piano, guitar and drums. In January 2011, he will be releasing a micro album called Pushing Through Walls via free download. Jalyn's production is a vivacious blend of hip-hop, pop, alternative soul and electronica, spanning all genres.

"This one guy Jalyn had such a crazy flavor that we were going to use three [songs] from him but we were like, we can't make this guy remix the whole album. He remixed 'Uptown Girl' [on my Yes! Remix Album] and he has this John Hughes, Ferris Bueller's Day Off - 80s music [feel], very authentic with his own touch to it." - K-OS

Given the cult following of the original 1982 film Tron, Disney naturally wanted to create the same enthusiasm in a new generation of sci-fi nerds. To accomplish this, they teamed up with Double Barrel Motion Studios to create a "motion comic" with interactive Tron-style visuals. The motion comic will be an interpretation of the film, skewed to appeal to children under 8 years old, available on the iTunes app store.
