He is no stranger to the HFStival having engineered it five times in the last six years. So far, this year’s additions to Mueller’s extensive rock resume include The Offspring, Yellowcard, Violent Femmes, New Found Glory, P.O.D., Voodoo Blue, and O.A.R. His other audio engineering credits include two Tibetan Freedom Concerts, Earth Day celebrations, Live from the House of Blues and over one hundred and fifty major artists including Aerosmith, Green Day, Pearl Jam, Eminem, Pink Floyd, ZZ Top, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rage Against the Machine, Sheryl Crow, and Puff Daddy. With a 30-year history in the music industry, Mueller believes in exposing new musical talent through the video game format. “The video game is the single strongest vehicle for breaking new music today. If you want your music heard, you have to get it in front of the audience. Today, there are millions of music loving people playing games.” (PRWeb May 27, 2004)
