What We Do

We create award-winning music and sound for brands, games, and television. Some of our favorite projects involve a high level of research and problem-solving. As radical shifts in production tools emerge, we consult with brands and agencies on how to leverage these new resources creatively and ethically.

Original Music & Sound Design

We have a global network of composers, musicians, singers, sound designers, and producers. Our work has been recognized Cannes Lions, AMP, AICP, and others.

Sonic Branding

We consult with brands to develop sonic toolkits (logos, theme songs, activation sound, etc) that embody their values and create powerful recall. 

Podcasting & Audio Content

We will take any idea for a podcast, radio program, or other audio-based storytelling modality, and assemble a team that can produce award-winning content.

Music & Sound Consulting

We work with brands to optimize their overall strategy that can create efficient music licensing strategies. 

Research

We are on the forefront of understanding AI, new trends, and future creative and technical ways of making and using music.

Music Supervision

We work with brands to find the perfect existing piece of music for their needs, from curating playlists to negotiating to sweetening.
