“Client's come to Onyx from all over the world, and I'm excited and honored to continue growing the studio and demonstrating that Connecticut is a viable place for the entertainment business,” said Melluzzo. “I'm also eager to begin developing new Connecticut talent that we can bring to some major label attention.”

The original founders, Adam von Gootkin and Peter Kowalczyk, have decided to focus entirely on , Connecticut's first legal producers of Moonshine. 

“We are extremely happy to see the legacy of Onyx Soundlab continued and are confident Savino will continue maintaining it as one of the top studios in New England,” said Adam von Gootkin.
