The score is based on the 1953 British Mount Everest expedition and stated that the success of the expedition inspired him to create the score.[49] On June 1, 2016, he released his fifth score, Omaha Beach.[50] He released his sixth score, Miracle in the Andes on July 1, 2016.[51] On August 1, 2016, he released his seventh score, Project Excelsior.[52] He released his eighth score, Corduroy Road on September 1, 2016 and is based on the American Civil War.[53] On October 1, 2016, he released his ninth score, Voyager 1 which is based on the first Voyager program launched by NASA in 1977.[54] He released his tenth score, Mount Rushmore on November 1, 2016 and was inspired by the carved sculptures of four US presidents in Mount Rushmore.[55] The Endurance was released on December 1, 2016 as the eleventh and final score. It is based on Ernest Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition in 1914.[56]

Musical styles and influences

Young has experimented with different genres of music.[70] His music under Owl City has been described as dancepop, electronica and synthpop.[11] Comparisons have been made to the Postal Service for its combination of fuzzy synths and ironic lyrics.[71] Young also incorporates faith into his music,[72] as well as experimenting with EDM.[73] Young stated he was inspired by dance music and listens to a lot of trance DJs.[74] He cites early influence from Dashboard Confessional.[10] He also took inspiration from movie soundtracks and film scores[75] which later inspired him to create scores of his own in 2016.[45] He cited the 2003 film Finding Nemo as what inspired him to make music.[75] Lyrically, he takes inspiration from reading the dictionary which allows him to "dream up an entire scenario or 'world' around it."[33]

His side project Sky Sailing has been described as acoustic with fewer electronic elements compared to Owl City.[30] He has also created instrumental and ambient music projects such as Port Blue and Color Therapy, with the former being influenced from bands like Unwed Sailor, Boards of Canada and Hammock.[11] He played pop punk music with the band Windsor Airlift before they shifted their sound to post-rock.[5] His music under the names Aquarium and Novel were described as screamo.[57] His drumming for the band Isle was influenced by the bands Botch, Pelican, Neurosis and Isis.[76]

Personal life

Young is a devout Christian and has stated that his faith is the only thing more important to him than music.[80] He still lives in Owatonna, Minnesota.[81] [82] He describes himself as introverted and believes he has symptoms of Asperger syndrome. However, he has not been officially diagnosed.[83] [84] Young enjoys photography and considers himself to be an amateur photographer.[85] On June 3, 2022, Young married a photographer named Abbey Olmsted in his hometown.[1]
