Warren Wolfe
Immersed in music performance from childhood thanks to his mother, an extremely talented musician in her own right, Wolfe knew music would be part of his future career pursuits in some capacity. He took time to find his niche and enrolled in college at NYU’s Music Business program, becoming involved in music supervision. Film scores served as his entry point to learning about the music for the picture world.
At the same time, he learned Ableton: how to produce self-released and collaborative projects. He cut his teeth with an internship at RCA Records, learning tools of the workforce trade in addition to valuable music business skills. Additional internships with Search Party Music, Mom+Pop Music and Mophonics Music and Sound, among others, led him to licensing and production posts with ABKCO Music and House of Vans respectively. He joins BUTTER from SixtyFour Music.
Says Wolfe, “I feel like I’ve joined such a vibrant and talented team. It’s awesome to see the range all of the composers possess, and the poise & work ethic of my NY Production team. Excited to help in creating amazing work and grow the network of talent we work with!”
Nat Jenkins
Working in music was Jenkin’s passion and lifelong goal from an early age. He credits the wonderful people he has met and worked with along his journey that brought him to work in music for ads. As a self-taught musician, he played instruments, wrote and recorded from childhood, encouraged to go wherever creativity led him from his NYC home base.
He earned a dual degree in composition and computer science from Lehigh University and began interning and working in post studios, including Headroom, where he later worked full-time as an assistant engineer under Jerry Plotkin. Roles with Headroom, PLUSHnyc and Sonic Union instilled a collaborative and efficient work ethic within Jenkins prior to signing with BUTTER.
“I couldn’t be happier to join the Butter team, and I’m so looking forward to adding my voice to such a premier level group of creatives!” adds Jenkins.
Reel 360 wishes Warren and Nat the best of luck at BUTTER.
