Dino DiMuro is an independent musician and sound designer based in Los Angeles.

Dino has been self-producing CDs and cassettes since the mid-80’s. On many of these releases he plays most everything except the drums, and on recent albums has taken on percussionist duties as well.

Dino DiMuro was born in Los Angeles just above the Hollywood freeway in 1957. After a short career as a rock guitarist in a band for hire (once opening for Van Halen), he became a motion picture sound effects editor, winning an Emmy, a British Academy Award, and several Golden Reels. Among his films are features by Ridley Scott, Cameron Crowe, and Oliver Stone; the Bourne Series; Revenant; and the sound design for the Netflix series NARCOS.

Dino released a series of albums in the 80’s and 90’s, while also reviewing for Option magazine. He has been profiled in Keyboard, Alternative Press, and BAM, among other publications and blogs. Finished with sound design, he is now on an aggressive release schedule of two to three CDs a year.

Dino’s music has been described as “Walt Disney on Acid” and is most often compared to Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, and They Might Be Giants. He also shows heavy classical, classic rock, country and folk influences. He has recently been investigating the inclusion of quirky, unexpected cover tunes like the organ theme from “The Ghost and Mr. Chicken” or the Narcorrido “Ballad of Heisenberg” From Breaking Bad.

Dino also has a Kindle novel ELMWOOD and an article about sound effects editing that can found on Cracked.com.
