The Audibles is a Grammy nominated Pop music, hip hop Record producer duo from Las Vegas, Nevada, consisting of Dominic "DJ" Jordan and Jimmy "Jimmy G" Giannos. Dominic “DJ” Jordan and Jimmy “Jimmy G” Giannos, met in 2007 at the “Lost in Love” music video shoot for Polow Da Don artists I-15 at the Palms Casino in Paradise, Nevada. Jimmy was interested in working with JR Castro from I-15 for his artist songs. A week later, they officially met up at Odds On Recording Studios in Henderson. After vibing at the studio in an all-night session, they realized each other talents and began to create together. They coined their name “The Audibles” from its root definition “to be heard” and “to change the game,” as seen by quarterbacks in football. JR Castro and Das offered an opportunity for the two to move to Atlanta and develop their art further under producer Polow Da Don.

They also produced five songs on the Multi-Grammy award-winning and singer/songwriter Poo Bear's BEATS 2 MAKE LOVE 2.

"Do Cool Sh!t With Your Friends" is the title/ mood of their debut album that sums up "the sound." "UP" Feat. Poo Bear became their first release under their new distribution company NOTOMORO. The record was an indie success and a great introduction to where the guys envision what their own sonics consists of. Their second single, "SOON AS I," Feat. Sab Story P/K/A STORY was released Oct. 20, 2020, and became heavy rotation material for the club DJs. They went in their bag a third time for their next single "OUTRAGEOUS" Feat. Sebastian Reynoso.
