Jeff Muzerolle
Drummer, Composer, Audio Production
Jeff Muzerolle is an american composer, arranger, audio producer, and drummer. He has written and/or arranged music for internationally syndicated television programs, national commercial spots and feature films. Jeff’s music can be heard on dozens of television shows airing on Bravo, Animal Planet, Discovery, TLC, ABC, NBC, and PBS.
While aiming to be versatile due to his love of all musical genres, Jeff’s music is specifically influenced by orchestral composers, including Bach, Stravinsky, Shoenberg, Copeland, Ives, and Cage. Jeff also claims much influence from 21st-century electronic artists, including Trent Reznor, Daft Punk, Deadmau5, Aphex Twin, and Squarepusher.
Jeff utilizes many different sonic techniques to create music that supports the storytelling aspect of visual productions. Whether it be digital or analog, sound sources are all fair game. As a drummer by trade, rhythm is always a crucial element of the music Jeff writes; close attention is always given to meter and tempo. The goal is to seamlessly utilize rhythm, harmony, and melody to create soundscapes that convey emotion, tell a story, and engage the listener.

Dixie Doo
Studio Security, Gentle Giant
Dixie is new to studio work and still learning how to relax in the quiet room. She prefers to stand guard outside the studio and leaves the companion work to Zoey.
