[English] Behind the Beats ----- Have you ever wondered what happens behind the scenes of the music we listen to every day, or thought about the technology that helps bring songs to life? Music is everywhere, from car radios to grocery stores to video games and even elevators, but it takes much more than instruments and voices to make it all come together. Technology plays a huge role in how music is created, recorded, mixed, and shared with people all around the world. If you're interested in exploring the world behind the beats, then this is the studio for you! In this studio, we invite you to explore the connection between music and technology. You might design a virtual instrument, build a rhythm game, visualize sound waves, create a project about careers in music, or imagine new ways music could be made in the future. Whether you want to build games, create art, tell stories, or design interactive experiences, this is your space to explore how coding and creativity can bring music to life. Looking for ideas to get started? - Create a music visualizer where shapes, colors, or animations move with sound. - Design a virtual instrument like a piano, drum pad, or guitar that others can play and experiment with. - Build a DJ mixer or beat maker where players combine sounds to create a song. - Make a rhythm game where players press keys or click in time with the beat. - Create a recording studio simulator that shows how music is recorded and mixed. - Make a day-in-the-life animation of a music producer working behind the scenes to bring a song to life. - Design an instrument of the future or digital music player interface. - Imagine a new technology that could help musicians create or share music in the future and create a project to share how it works. - As you explore the world behind the beats, you might discover new paths that connect your interests in music, technology, and creativity.

You are welcome to come up with your own ideas as well, or take inspiration from projects already in the studio! What will you create? =^..^= - - - - This studio was made possible by our friends at Amazon Future Engineers and was designed in collaboration with the Scratch Youth Mentors! Wondering why Scratch has teamed up with Amazon Future Engineers to bring you this studio? Scratch sometimes collaborates with partners we trust to bring Scratchers cool opportunities and resources and to help support the servers and community that keep Scratch going. This is one of those studios and we can’t wait to see what you will create ^.^
