About Me.
My name is Benjamin Mangum, and I've been a multi-faceted artist since I created my company called Dead Silence Media in 2019 with my brother and business partner Sage Stone.
I originally started to pursue my passion with art when I was about ten years old. I starting learning Live Sound Engineering at a local church. After I moved from that area I used my skills as an engineer to work at the Northern Lights Concert Series, and other places, until I graduated high school.
In 2019 I moved to the Twin Cities and attended the Institute of Production and Recording until 2020, when the school was shut down due to COVID-19. While attending school I began my journey into Studio Audio Engineering and Video Production. Throughout 2019-2023 I became an engineer, producer, and graphic designer for various artists such as Manny Rose and Dee-a-Tee which lead to officially releasing music as Dead Silence Media.
​
In 2023 I started a business relationship with WaterWaveTV as the primary recording engineer, videographer, and photographer for their platform giving me the opportunity to work with great artists such as , Kelvino, Jake Giller, Jovonta Patton, BDifferent, and Uzzah.
​​
I look towards the future with the belief that my company can grow into a symbol of creative freedom for the Midwest.

"My personal belief is that artists need to grow an understanding of how their medium is understood by the viewer and the impact their art could have
....
Creating a body of work that displays who you are as an individual to the world is challenging, but if you do it correctly you will create your own universe in which like-minded people will join to experience and grow with you."
