A worker-owned Audio production Cooperative.

Mumble Media is a full-service audio entertainment production company.

We work in this field because we believe audio is powerful and personal. Voices are important. Storytelling is important. Art is important. Our work helps us reflect on our lives and engage with the world around us. And we love doing it.

We started our own company because we wanted to operate a business founded on the principles of trust, transparency, and fairness. Our goal is to affect positive change in the industry by building creative relationships and using our collective resources to create opportunities for others.

our specialties

We take mumbles and turn them into audio magic. Whether it’s developing a good idea into a great one, capturing clean audio, or making the sound design sing, we do it all. We provide end-to-end podcast production services for:

Audio Documentaries

You’ve got the story, but what about the soundscapes that put you in the setting, the stirring music that propels you to the big reveal, and… oh no, was that person interviewed inside a trash can? From getting the tape in shape to making the soundtrack sing, we can bring flow, cohesion, and polish to your audio documentary.

Immersive Audio Fiction

We specialize in end-to-end production of the highest quality audio fiction. You know, like talkies without the pictures. Radio plays, but like, modern and really good. And we can handle everything from script consultation to top-notch sound design and original soundtrack composition.

Kids’ Podcasts

We make content that sparks wonder: full of cool facts, lovable characters, silly things, great stories, and even games. Whether you’re taking your IP on a first foray into audio or developing entirely new worlds, we can help you hit all the right notes for kids—and their caretakers.

Sonic Branding

What does your brand sound like? If you can’t answer this question, we’re here to help. From crafting a signature sonic logo to finding that musical vibe that “just gets you,” we can help propel your brand off the page and into ears.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT US

“Mumble is magic with sound. The attention to detail, the subtle additions that perfect a moment. The incredible soundtrack work. I couldn't dream of better creative partners to bring my project to life.”

Felicia Day, Third Eye

“Working with Mumble Media throughout post-production for the complex narrative Audible Series, Third Eye, was nothing short of a privilege. Mumble wasn’t just a partner in post-production, but a catalyst that elevated our series to new heights. They gracefully navigated the intricacies of post-production, their editing and sound design displaying an unmatched level of professionalism and a commitment to audio excellence. Their passion was contagious, infusing the whole production with a vibrant energy. Their fusion of professionalism, punctuality and dedication elevated our production to become a truly best-in-class audio series.”

Clamor, Third Eye

“Mumble’s first cut is a final cut. The team has such a strong, intuitive grasp of scripted audio podcasting, and their collaborative approach ensures that every decision aligns with our vision while also elevating the production. Each team member brings a creative perspective to the table, putting thought into every decision. The music supervision is outstanding and on point. The workflow is both efficient and organized, with clear milestones that keep everything on track. And most importantly, they’re all good people and enjoyable to work with. Can’t wait for our next project together.”

Louis Caggiano, Broadway Video

“Working with Mumble was one of the best collaborative experiences of my professional life, and I'm not exaggerating. They began consulting with us early in the production process to make sure we sourced the raw audio material that we would need to make a great story, from field recordings to interviews to original music. They scored our story showing a superb appreciation for narrative, layering sound to set scenes, build tension, and enhance emotion—all without being too heavy-handed. On top of their technical and artistic expertise, they are great communicators, they give and receive feedback in a positive way, and they follow through on deadlines. If you are so lucky as to have the chance to work with them, take it!”

Bonnie Swift, Tokitae

“I've worked with the folks at Mumble Media on several of my productions, and I will work with them again every chance I get. They have incredible instincts for working with sound and music. They are consummate storytellers, excellent collaborators, detail-oriented experts, and simply great folks all around. I trust them to make any project sound its very best.”

What’s a Worker-Owned Cooperative?

Mumble Media is a worker-owned cooperative.

Worker cooperatives are businesses that are driven by their values and prioritize operating in ways that benefit their workers and the broader community. At a worker cooperative—unlike at a traditional company—the worker–members take part in the business’ profits, oversight, and management. This worker participation and decision-making uses democratic practices.

So what does this look like for Mumble?

In any year where the company profits, our worker–members receive a share of those profits as dividends, based on how many hours we’ve worked.

No one is unilaterally “in charge.” We elect positions like CEO and CFO for 2-year terms, and we rotate who serves them. We also have committees that oversee key areas like finance or production.

Regardless of what positions people hold, all members have an equal vote as members of the Board. Decisions that affect our business are made democratically.

We prioritize the well-being of our employees in every decision we make, whether it’s what benefits we offer or whether to take on a challenging project.
