LNA
AKA Liina Turtonen
Artist | Producer | Interactive Sound Designer | Composer | Content Creator
LNA (Liina Turtonen) is a Finnish-born artist, producer, author, composer, and interactive sound designer based in Devon, England. Her practice spans immersive sound design, electronic music, and live audio-visual performance, always guided by a deep commitment to accessibility and the relationship between the body and sound.
Interactive Sound Designer and Composer
LNA has been working as an interactive sound designer for over six years, creating spaces that respond to touch, movement, and presence. She specialises in accessibility and inclusion, with the majority of her work developed in close collaboration with people with disabilities.
​
Her practice has received consistent recognition from leading arts bodies. In 2024 she was awarded funding from Arts Council England to explore interactive audio and sound design for disabled dancers. The following year, a British Council grant took her to Bali for a residency called Sonic Moves, working alongside We Are Epic and a multicultural group of disabled dancers, where she also pioneered immersive technology work with Deaf performers.
In 2026 she received a commission from Immersive Arts UK for a new project titled What Do I Sound Like? An ambitious work developing a biofeedback tool that translates a person's unique biological signature into a personalised, real-time piece of music, controllable through biofeedback. The project weaves together her commitment to accessibility with her own evolving artistry as a musician.
​
As a composer, LNA brings many years of experience to dance and screen. Her collaborations with Tin Arts include Helm (2019), Got Your Nose (2021), and Chance (2025). Her most recent screen credit is Plaster (2026), a short film by Gareth Malone. Her compositional voice is broad and considered, moving between smooth, melancholic cinematic scores and driving house, electronic, and more experimental territory. She is drawn to the tension between the organic and the synthetic, and consistently finds new ways to bring natural, acoustic sound into a fully electronic world.
Musician
As a musician, LNA moves between chill melodic house and electronica, combining acoustic and electronic elements with a cinematic and atmospheric edge. Listen her music here.
​
On stage, she performs hybrid audio-visual sets that weave together looping, violin, synths, and vocals into something that feels both intimate and expansive. She regularly integrates her own custom-built interactive tools, sensors and responsive sound design techniques that make each performance feel alive and unrepeatable.
As a neurodivergent artist who experiences sound as image, she pairs her music with visuals controlled through hand movement and the expressive sweep of her keyboard, turning every performance into a fully immersive, synaesthetic experience.
Educator
LNA is an Ableton Certified Trainer and the creator of online music production content, where she makes music production education genuinely accessible and enjoyable. Her YouTube channel LNA Does Audio Stuff and her social media platforms LNADoesTutorials on Instagram and TikTok have built a growing and enthusiastic following, with her cat-themed visual explainers and audio tutorials gaining significant momentum recently. It turns out cats and music production are a very good combination.
​
She creates and sells online music production courses rooted in a simple but powerful idea: teaching the way she wished she had been taught when she was younger. As a neurodivergent learner herself, she designs her courses to be visual, structured, and genuinely confidence-building, stripping away the jargon and meeting students where they actually are. Her Patreon community offers a more intimate space for artists at all levels to connect, grow, and make more music together.
Author
Creative Confidence and Music Production: Overcome Your Insecurities is LNA's debut book, a practical guide for music producers navigating the often complicated relationship between self-doubt and creative output. It offers honest, actionable tools for working through the most common creative blocks, and has resonated with readers well beyond its core audience of producers.
​
The book opens by unpacking the interplay between confidence, creativity, and working with technology, before moving through chapters packed with expert tips and hands-on exercises. Topics range from building confidence in the production process and navigating the music industry as an artist, to finding creative direction and developing sustainable workflows. It closes with real stories from a diverse range of music professionals sharing how they work, what drives them, and how they move through doubt and uncertainty. Whether you are just starting out, deep in study, or years into a professional career, it is a reminder that creative confidence is something that can be practised.
