Our Story
múni-muni [verb]:
to ponder; to reflect; to contemplate
Philippine choral music is celebrated the world over. The choirs tour internationally, and the repertoire is loved and sung far beyond the islands. And yet the recordings are hard to come by: you can hear the Western choral canon anywhere, anytime, at beautiful fidelity, while the music Jett grew up singing rarely gets that chance.
Muni Sound is her call to action: making high-quality recording accessible to underrepresented communities and the ensembles who carry their music. It started with the Philippine choral tradition and has grown to ensembles from India, Indonesia, and beyond. Her recording of "Rosas Pandan" with the Loboc Children's Choir is on the Listen page.
Jett has sung the choral repertoire she records. That dual perspective, musical and technical, shapes every session: how the room is set up, how the takes are run, how the final master honors what the ensemble actually sounds like. The name is the practice: reflection and intention at every step.
Two decades behind the console
It started on choir tours: Jett recording her own ensemble with a two-channel interface, a pair of microphones, and whatever mic stands the venue could spare. By the time she left Manila she had engineered records for the Philippine Madrigal Singers and the Loboc Children's Choir. Her mastering credits since then run from Elvis Costello and Barbra Streisand to the "Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora" soundtrack.
These days you'll find her at her mastering studio on Hollywood Boulevard, or on location with a choir and a case full of microphones.

Our Mission
Muni Sound records the stories, traditions and cultures that make music rich. We began in the global choral space, and the door is open to any ensemble carrying a story you don't get to hear much of online. We believe that:
- Every ensemble deserves a professional recording.
- The tradition comes first. The technical work serves it.
- Music from anywhere should be able to reach everywhere.
- The music that is hardest to find is often the music that matters most to someone.
Amplifying voices, one vision at a time.
