GOT QUESTIONS?

The first step is to connect with us so that we can hear from you about the kind of music you would love to make. You can either book a free consultation call with us or reach out to us through our contact form and let us know all about your project.

Once we know what your specific project entails, we'll come up with a plan and a customized no-obligation quote based on the info you provide.

If you're not sure what to expect during a consultation call, check out the video below, in which our lead producer Sean explains what you can expect.

Not at all! If you're more comfortable sending us your project details via e-mail, you're absolutely welcome to do so. The call option is simply there for those who’d like to chat first; to get to know us, ask questions, and help us better understand their goals before getting started.

You can send your questions or project details to info@lifeinsongstudios.com OR fill out our contact form.

The first step is coming up with a song. We can help you with the writing process by setting you up with a songwriter for a writing session. If you already have a song written or you want to record your own version of an existing song, you can skip this step.

Next, we discuss the details of what you want your song to sound like and start the recording process. We book any musicians, as well as the vocalist (if required) according to your needs.

Lastly, all the elements are brought together in the "mixing" phase to create a cohesive, professional sounding track. We’ll stay in touch the whole time to make sure everything’s moving in the right direction together.

Once you're happy, we provide you with the final audio files.

While it may seem intimidating, it’s really not. One of our writers will hop on a video call with you to work on your song. You’ll throw ideas around and our writer will help you write and/or refine and fine tune your song. Writing sessions are 3 hours long.

If you don’t know any music theory, that’s ok! They’ll be able to come up with chords. Just bring your ideas. Some people come up with lyrics, some with melodies, some both. A lot of people throw their melody ideas into voice notes on their phone. That’s great! No need for perfection; this is the time to explore. No matter what you bring, our writer will fill in the gaps so you end up with a song you’re proud of.

A reference is an existing song or artist that captures the vibe you're going for and helps us shape the production. It’s not about copying, but about understanding the “musical colors” you’re drawn to so we can paint with a similar palette.

Think about what artists you love, who inspired your song, or who it reminds you of. That gives us a solid creative direction while honoring both your musical identity and the song’s unique character.

And if you’re unsure? That’s totally fine. Discovering your sound is often part of the recording journey and we’re here to help you find it.

The most likely answer here is the genre you tend to listen to most or the genre that inspires your songwriting. If you don’t know, that’s totally fine. We can put our ears to it and let you know what we hear. Also check out our FAQ "What are references?", since that can inform your genre.

Some genres to pick from are: Rock, Pop, Funk/Soul, Singer-Songwriter, Bluegrass, Progressive Rock, Reggae, Country/Folk/Acoustic, Blues, Jazz Fusion, Latin/Afrobeat/Global, Metal, Film/TV/Orchestral Composition, A Capella and Kids Music.

It is your choice whether you want to perform on your own track or hire a vocalist to perform it for you. If you are interested in recording your own vocals at home, but don't know where to start, check out this article.

Alternatively, we can help you book a recording session at a studio near you.

If you would like to hire a vocalist, we can send you options that we think are a good fit for your song.

Picking the right singer for your song can feel daunting! But rest assured, you are not alone in this. The first step is to decide whether you want a male or female vocalist (or both). The next step is to think of your references - if Celine Dion is one of the references for your song, you wouldn’t pick a singer with a light, airy voice.

We have built up a list of trusted vocalists and will send you some option that we think best suit your song. If none sound right for your song, that’s ok! There are a lot of amazing singers out there and we can help you look for the right one.

You are also welcome to utilize trusted services like Soundbetter, a platform that allows you to explore and listen to the work of amazing singers across all genres.

Importantly, we always want to pick a singer before we record any instruments. This is so that we can work with the singer to pick the best key for the song.

Ideally, allow 4-6 weeks for a song to go from idea to final product. The song creation process goes through many stages, some of which involve a lot of moving parts. For example, booking all the musicians and a studio for the same day, waiting for the vocalist to recover from a cold or slotting the song into the queue for mixing.

We are always happy to update you on where your song is in the process and will send you updated versions of the song as it goes through the different stages.
