How can I lower the cost of my song?
- Rehearse until you can sing the whole song without reading: fewer studio hours
- Bring a finished beat or demo with the key and tempo decided
- Agree the reference sound before mixing to reduce revisions
- Book several tracks as one project for a single quote
How much does an album cost?
Multiply the per-track work by the number of songs, then adjust for shared sessions: musicians recorded across several songs in one day, and a consistent mix approach, usually make an album cheaper per track than separate singles. We quote albums as one project.
Questions people ask us
Are these prices final?
They are starting prices. Your final price is set in a written quote after a short consultation.
Who owns the song after I pay?
Ownership and licensing are agreed in writing before work begins. Read our music rights guide for the basics.
Can I pay for recording only and mix elsewhere?
Yes. Hourly recording is booked on its own and you take the session files.
