Catlin “CLE” Edwards Jr. Named Head of Audio for NCEG’s Atlanta University Center Chapter



The Atlanta University Center chapter of the National Collegiate Entertainers Group (NCEG) just locked in a powerful new voice behind the boards. We’re proud to announce Catlin “CLE” Edwards Jr. as the official Head of Audio for the AUC chapter, representing Morehouse College, Spelman College, Clark Atlanta University, and Morris Brown College.

The Sound of Leadership

CLE isn’t just turning knobs — he’s setting the tone.

“Audio is more than just volume levels and equipment to me — it’s the foundation of every great performance, recording, and event,” CLE shared in his application. “Whether it’s live sound, studio sessions, or content production, I understand how critical quality audio is to an organization that represents student creatives and future industry professionals.”

This appointment recognizes CLE’s rare combination of technical expertise, leadership potential, and passion for helping artists sound their best. He brings hands-on experience in music production, sound design, mixing, and live audio engineering — skills he’s ready to pour back into the community.

What a Head of Audio Does

At NCEG, the Head of Audio is more than an engineer — they’re the backbone of every performance, rehearsal, and production.

According to the NCEG Chapter Manual, this role includes:

  • Managing equipment, systems, and technical resources

  • Running audio for all chapter events

  • Training the next generation of producers and engineers

  • Ensuring that every beat, every mic, and every moment sounds elite

CLE is already dialed in.

“I’m comfortable troubleshooting under pressure, adapting quickly during events, and making sure artists feel confident in how they sound,” he said. “My goal is to leave the audio department stronger than I found it.”

Goals for 2026 and Beyond

CLE laid out a crystal-clear vision for the AUC audio department:

  • Raise the bar on sound quality at all performances and events

  • Train and mentor students passionate about engineering and production

  • Collaborate across departments — especially Events, Media, and A&R

  • Build a legacy of professionalism and technical excellence

“I want to train members, share knowledge, and create systems that allow everyone to grow,” he explained. “NCEG’s mission to empower students and provide real industry experience is something I truly believe in.”

Jantonomi Is Building a Global Sound—One Chapter at a Time

  Jantonomi Is Building a Global Sound—One Chapter at a Time At a moment when many emerging artists are still finding their footing, Jantonomi is already operating with the clarity and discipline of someone far beyond his years. A freshman at Georgia State University , Jantonomi is an artist, producer, and Certified Entertainer with the first chapter of the National Collegiate Entertainers Group (NCEG) —and his journey into music started long before college ever entered the picture. “I think when I first really started messing around making music, I was probably in like second grade,” he recalls. “I grew up watching my older brother make music, and I was always just surrounded by sound.” That early exposure turned into hands-on experimentation when he saved up for his first laptop and installed FL Studio—still in elementary school. From that point forward, music wasn’t a hobby. It was a constant. “I’ve been releasing music since around 2020,” he says. “It’s been about six years th...
