Curra’s credits include Rick and Morty and BoJack Horseman, while Singleton has worked on Big Mouth and Star Trek: Lower Decks.

The audio house, located in the heart of Hollywood, was founded in 1999 by two-time Grammy award winner and four-time Emmy award recipient Brian Riordan. He cut his post-production animation teeth working as an ADR mixer/recordist on Pixar features such as Toy Story II and A Bug’s Life, Disney’s Hercules and Tarzan, DreamWorks’ Shrek, and TV staples like Fox’s King of the Hill and MTV’s Beavis and Butt-Head. The sound house has also previously worked on Nickelodeon’s Avatar: The Last Airbender and all four seasons of The Legend of Korra.
“The freedom we have in creating and mixing sound for animation is unparalleled,” Riordan comments. “It is a blank canvas that sound completely brings to life. The future of immersive sound mixing for broadcast animation is especially exciting. Levels is thrilled to be expanding and further investing in this medium and we are deeply grateful for the relationships we have with incredible talent such as Hunter and James.”
