Decon is a New York-based creative studio. Housing production, creative, strategy and music divisions, the company creates campaigns on behalf of brands and advertising agencies.[1]

History

Originally named Deconstruction Company, the company was founded in 2002 by Peter Bittenbender and Jason Goldwatch after the success of their award-winning hip-hop documentary and accompanying soundtrack, One Big Trip.[2]

In 2012, Decon earned a Promax Award for their work on NBCUniversal's "Green Week" campaign.[3] That year, Misha Louy and Sacha Jenkins both joined as partners, expanding their Production and Entertainment divisions.[4][5]

Decon Records

Early album releases saw Decon working alongside Project Blowed and Okayplayer.[6] In 2011, Decon earned recognition from Billboard as one of the 50 Best Indie Labels in America.[7]
