Forever Audio joins Creative UK Investment Portfolio with six-figure investment for exciting strategic growth

Back to top

Creative UK is excited to announce that Forever Audio, audio post-production house and specialist audio advertising agency, has joined its Creative Growth Finance portfolio.  

Forever Audio’s team of almost 50 strong, provides a diverse range of audio services to post-production, global advertising, and content creation clients. Forever Audio houses ten high-spec studios (including Dolby Atmos mixing) in its Central London facility. Over its almost 20-year history, the studios side of the business, formerly known as SNK Studios, has provided ADR and voice recording services for hundreds of projects from Netflix’s ‘Bridgerton’ series and Apple TV’s ‘Masters of the Air’ to Denis Villeneuve’s epic ‘Dune’ feature, with countless TV, radio and digital ads being given the full sound design, voice record and even music composition treatment by the team. 

 

On the agency side of the business, previously known as Red Apple Creative, they have been a global creative partner for Spotify for over a decade, creating original high-end audio and digital advertising experiences for global brands, along with original audio content for immersive experiences, radio advertisers and other digital audio platforms. The business rebranded in 2023, to bring the two existing names under the one brand – Forever Audio. 

The investment from Creative UK will enable Forever Audio to continue investing in their studio facility, by constructing a new flagship studio space at their HQ in Central London, due to open at the end of 2024. This will reinforce the company’s focus on high-end audio services to take advantage of growth forecasts in the UK post-production market and build AI-resilience into their business model. 

 

Forever Audio will also expand their international team, currently in Germany and the US, to take advantage of the significant commercial opportunities internationally in line with the increasing demand for original audio content and audio advertising across the world. 

Rahul Misra, Investment Manager, Creative UK, said: 

 “Forever Audio is a great addition to our investment portfolio as well as the Creative UK ecosystem. The business has a strong track record and an impressive management team. We are very pleased to come on board as their strategic investment partner during a very exciting phase of growth. This is a compelling opportunity in the audio/music space which is a sector we would like to invest more in.”
