Where it all began

Kevin Manthei - founder Triumph Audio

Film, tv and game composer Kevin Manthei has been working actively in Hollywood for over 20 years.  As a working composer he has always relied on fresh and creative approaches to his scores.  One of those ways was to create his own sample libraries via sonic manipulation & recording of live musicians.  This passion has led to the founding of Triumph Audio as a creative outlet for his custom sampling and musical sound design.  You can count on the sample libraries of Triumph Audio to inspire and give you a cinematic creative edge.  Expect the unexpected, the rethinking of the obvious and the conventional from a new perspective.  This is boutique sampling.  This is Triumph Audio.

Born and raised in the LA area, Royal's goal is to serve and fulfill the musical needs of visual storytellers by composing original music. At Triumph Audio, Royal works in creating libraries, Kontakt programming, and web development. With a knack for oddball sounds and instruments, similar to that of Kevin, Royal enjoys creating new pieces with unexpected elements. When he’s not working with Triumph Audio, Royal is an avid composer and electronic music producer.

Where the magic happens

Triumph Studios - home of Triumph Audio

Working from his modern industrial barn-inspired recording studio among the hills of north Los Angeles County, Kevin recently built a 2400sf professionally designed multi-purpose facility complete with a scoring stage, writing rooms, theater, and offices. Nestled on his private 2.5 acre home property, the state of the art rustic building has plenty of room to work, relax, and play, transpiring into a soothing space to fully create. Many of Triumph Audio’s libraries are developed, recorded and programmed here.
