One of its first projects was making station jingles for Capital Radio - London and BBC Radio 2.[1] Over the next two years Grooveworx quickly expanded into other areas of media by building a 60,000 track strong production library.

In 2004, Grooveworx began creating custom cues for hit television shows such as Extreme Makeover, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Deal or No Deal and Supernanny. Grooveworx also embedded itself into the realm of feature film advertising with the release of the Full Tilt, Volume 1 music collection, which became an instantaneous hit. Full Tilt, Volume 1 was followed up by Full Tilt, Volumes 2 and 3 and Full Tilt Trailer Tools 1 & 2, additional collections of trailer music compositions used in hundreds of major Hollywood feature films.

In 2007 Grooveworx released Full Tilt, Volume 3, the most ambitious project to date and will be working on a follow-up to Eardrum, as well as work with new composers to further round out their film trailer collections. Other notable composers that have collaborated with Grooveworx are Danny Elfman, David Newman and Rachel Portman.[3]
