Grooveworx (formerly known as Groove Addicts) is a custom music house that produces music for various categories of media. Based in Santa Monica, CA, Grooveworx was founded by Dain Blair in 1996 as a custom music house for television commercials, scores for TV shows, feature film trailers and IDs for radio stations worldwide. One of its first projects was making station jingles for BBC Radio 2. Over the next two years Grooveworx quickly expanded into other areas of media by building a 30,000 track strong production library. In 1999, the company composed the sound for Will Smith videoclip for the 1999 film Wild Wild West.
In 2004, Grooveworx began creating custom cues for hit television shows such as Extreme Makeover, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and Deal or No Deal. Grooveworx also embedded itself into the realm of feature film advertising with the release of the Full Tilt, Volume 1 music collection, which became an instantaneous hit. Full Tilt, Volume 1 was followed up by Full Tilt, Volumes 2 and 3 and Full Tilt Trailer Tools 1 & 2, additional collections of trailer music compositions.
In October 2006, Grooveworx collaborated with composer/drummer Stewart Copeland of the Police to create Eardrum, a collection of film trailer music that was exclusively created for Grooveworx. In 2007 Grooveworx released Full Tilt, Volume 3, the most ambitious project to date and will be working on a follow-up to Eardrum, as well as work with new composers to further round out their film trailer collections. Other notable composers that have collaborated with Grooveworx are Danny Elfman, David Newman and Rachel Portman.
Full Tilt Rising has since been released. Yet another album by the name of Glory,Oath and Blood quickly followed. Grooveworx recently produced the background track for the movie trailers Robin Hood, Avatar, Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, Prince of Persia, Jennifer's Body, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Inception and The Wolfman. Full Tilt Convergence is the latest album released by Grooveworx.
