It Started With Sound...

...but then something happened.

Making Noise

It may seem odd for a company to work in the realms of music and construction, but we come by the pairing naturally. Our roots as a company are firmly planted in music production and broadcasting. Jason Wright started Dark Matter Productions in Vancouver in 1994, to serve the production needs of the vibrant music and alternative media markets there. Jason recognized a void in those markets in his home town of Calgary, and in 1995, he decided to return to Alberta to break new ground, and hasn’t looked back.  Over the years, he has worked with some of the world’s finest musicians, orchestras and studios, and has provided thousands of music students with their first exposure to professional sound recording.

In 2006, some of our institutional music clients inadvertently pulled us in to construction. Several of them came looking for advice regarding the poor, and sometimes dangerously loud conditions in their rehearsal and performance spaces. Our initial response to these requests was to provide acoustic testing of their facilities, and design remedial treatments to correct their issues, with the construction and installation of these systems to be carried out by others in the construction industry, but finding competent Contractors to fabricate and install the corrective systems proved very difficult.

Drag The Slider To See The Transformation

Which Led Us In To Construction.

We weren’t looking to head in that direction, but our production clients, and our neighbours, decided that we should expand beyond music. The transformation is now complete, and our feet are now firmly planted in both worlds.

Building Things

We quickly learned that no company in the region could build and install our acoustic systems to our strict specifications, so in response to prodding from our long-time music clients and several school boards, we ventured into the construction and installation of our designs with the same attention to detail and quality as our music productions, and as a result, those projects have been very successful.

The residential side of the business spawned out of the building of a custom home and studio from the ground up, in Northwest Calgary. We have developed fantastic relationships with neighbours, Subcontractors, and the community at large, Since 2007. Word of mouth, a strong reputation for quality work and excellent client aftercare is growing our residential client list, and most past clients return regularly to complete new projects.
