about

Inventive Audio  records, produces, restores, designs, mixes, composes and masters audio for film, music, podcast, radio, adverts, voice over and live events. 

Fill our ears with your film, live event or podcast and we will come back with the sound, voice and/or music to elevate it to the next level… and beyond. 

We are aural storytellers who start with the premise that silence is golden, so what replaces it better be platinum.
