Trouble-and-film-maker Andrew Wonder is up to it again. More episodes of UNDERCITY with everyone's favorite Steve Duncan are all over the internets. Gothamist. Huffington Post. All of your friends computers. Who's making it sound awesome/intelligible? Silver Sound, NYC's most awesome sound studio, that's who. Major kudos to our very own Robin Shore for some major sound ninja moves.

So we were hard at work the other day here in the Silver Sound studio, you know, browsing the Urban Dictionary. And guess what we found in there? The Leviathan Chronicles. That's right. And what might be the definition? "A kickass audio drama...." Yeah, that's the word on the street. What. So if you don't remember The Leviathan Chronicles, it's only one of the most listened to and best sounding  Sci-Fi audio podcasts in entire world. Headed by (and sometimes even featuring the vocal stylings of) our very own Luke Allen and Robin Shore, Silver Sound has designed and scored over 30 episodes for visionary writer/director Christof Laputka. The two newest special edition episodes, THE WARD and THE ROGUE PLAGUE have just been unleashed. What is Leviathan?

So I was sitting in my sound booth here at Charles D Owen High in North Carolina when my gmail bar starts blinking on Fire Fox 4 (anyone else like it as much as I do?) And it's an email from my good friend: writer and director Brian Ross. Turns out that his webseries www.bigcountryblues.com (that Ted and Reed both had a large hand in doing the production sound recording for) just won ELEVEN awards at the LA Webseries Festival 2011! Including outstanding drama series, writing, directing, acting and editing! This is especially exciting for me (Cory) because I did the picture editing for 3 of the episodes! Silver Sound will be doing the final sound design and mix. Hooo rah!

BCB stars country sensation Jeremy McComb, and also features some pretty badass original country tunes.
