No one else can tell your life stories but you. It’s a direct transmission of your unique life-force and, at Voice Vault, this is sacred space.
We use our audio expertise to empower you in your storytelling. Our professional team creates compelling sound designs that resonate with the depth and complexity of your life.
Our high quality audio captures the essence of your experiences in versatile audio formats including:
Working with you, we masterfully craft a listening experience that is returned to again and again to gain insights into you, the listener themselves, and the world you both inhabit.
The experiences you’re living through right now are the context future generations will crave. In our rapidly shifting world, today’s stories are crucially shaping life in the near and distant future. They provide anchors.
Recent studies show that engaging with personal narratives fosters resilience, problem-solving skills, and a stronger sense of identity.
Stories strengthen individuals and communities. By sharing your journey, you’re passing on hard-earned wisdom and strategies for navigating life’s complexities.
At Voice Vault, we believe in the power of listening. We’re here to mentor your expression of your experiences – the challenges you’ve overcome, the joys you’ve discovered, the meaning you’ve created – the threads that weave our collective human grand narrative. You are an essential part of it.
We’re immersed in sound from the time we’re in the womb, entrained to the human voice before we can see. Throughout our lives, we continue to take meaning from sounds, especially the human voice.
Listening to a voice creates an intimate connection. The listener picks up on subtle inflections, pauses, and tones that add layers of meaning to words.
It’s also an act of co-creation – you speak your story while the listener receives it with their imagination, experiencing the voice as though it’s speaking for their ear alone. Audio intensifies this effect.
It’s the only medium where you can be laying in bed, listening on headphones, when suddenly a train comes roaring through. You feel it in your body, you see it in your mind, and somehow, being in bed with a train makes perfect sense. This is audio’s special sauce – it’s highly imaginative power that other forms can’t match.
Our mission is to guide you in the process of co-creating compelling immersive audio, blending your narrative with carefully curated sounds. We create a vivid auditory soundscape that intrigues and delights the listener.
We provide an easy guided process that safeguards your privacy. Our team comprises experienced listeners and we listen attentively to you and your storytelling objectives.
With more than 25 years working with many types of sound production and story structures, we know our stuff. No project is too small or too complex as our audio narrative packages reflect.
The package titles and descriptions are playful possibilities, not limitations. We work closely with you to create your unique audio piece. Everything hinges on you.

Andrea, team leader, is an avid sound and listening enthusiast ever since the time she was a youngster listening to Radio Luxembourg on one of many radios around her overseas home.
She began her career in audio production in the UBC Creative Writing Masters program mentored by Don Mowatt. She studied the award-winning Radio Documentary Feature, a European form that uses many different audio elements to tell stories with the depth and complexity integral to lived experience. Don Mowatt brought the Feature form to the CBC’s flagship program Ideas in the 1980’s, thereby defining the program’s style.
Fascinated by sound and listening, she also became involved in the sound ecology movement mentored by it’s pioneers, R. Murray Schafer and Hildegard Westerkamp, while earning her Doctorate in Sound Studies. She also served as the long-time Chair of the Canadian Association for Sound Ecology.
Dr. Dancer has produced in many forms for radio, podcasts and sound art in Canada, the US and Europe over 20 years.
One thing Andrea knows with certainty — there isn’t a stronger connection between people than a story well told, especially when told masterfully. Live or recorded, sound is Andrea’s life work.
