About Jam
Hi Crystal, thanks for connecting and giving us a chance to share a bit of our work! Instead of sending over a static deck, we put together a short site that gives a quick intro and highlights some work we thought might be relevant to VML
Jam was founded by composers Sam Clawson and Nenjah Nycist after leaving big shops like Butter and JSM, where outsourcing and overhead slowed projects down. We built Jam to be the opposite—lean, personal, and fully in-house. What most creative directors need isn’t a vendor, but a true audio partner who listens, understands the vision, and helps make clients genuinely happy. That’s what we’ve done for brands like Netflix, NASCAR, Wise, Garnier, and Trü Frü, working alongside agencies as an extension of their team.
We believe in keeping things simple and transparent. Most music shops tend to overcomplicate mnemonics and jingles, adding layers that make it tough for agencies to pitch sonic branding early. Our approach is different. We partner with agencies from the very start to help them pitch and sell sound strategy that makes their clients genuinely happy.
And we don’t stop at custom underscore. We create sound for interactive experiences, websites, logos, and experiential events, including curated music for live brand activations and installations.
