Come Ready. Leave With a Record.
The 10-Hour Song Build is designed to move quickly. Come ready with:
VOCALS
☐ Lyrics are finished
Have your complete lyrics written and easily accessible.
☐ You know your song
Be comfortable performing your verses, hooks, bridges and ad-libs.
☐ Vocal arrangement is planned
Know where you want leads, doubles, harmonies and important background vocals.
☐ Pronunciations & lyrics are settled
Avoid using studio time to rewrite or figure out lyrics.
SONG & PRODUCTION
☐ Your song structure is established
Know the basic arrangement: intro, verse, chorus, bridge, outro, etc.
☐ Bring your beat / instrumental
Have the production file ready to go.
☐ Bring your reference tracks
Have 1–3 songs that communicate the sound you're going for.
☐ Know the direction
Be prepared to describe the sound, mood and overall vision for your record.
☐ Know your BPM & key
If known, have your song's tempo and key available.
FILES
☐ Bring your files organized
Have your audio, beats, stems and reference tracks downloaded and ready before arriving.
☐ Bring backups
Keep your important files backed up somewhere other than your computer.
☐ Bring your session / project files
If you're bringing an existing production, make sure the project opens properly before the session.
COME READY TO WORK
This is a fixed 10-hour production sprint:
4 HOURS — RECORD
Vocal recording
5 HOURS — BUILD
Production & arrangement
1 HOUR — REFINE
Final revisions
Studio time is limited, so preparation matters.
IMPORTANT
The package covers one song and is designed for a prepared artist. Time spent rewriting lyrics, learning the song, searching for files, or substantially changing the creative direction reduces the time available for recording and production.
Additional studio time: $50/hour.
YOUR SESSION IS READY WHEN...
You can walk into the studio, press play, and tell me:
“This is the song. This is the sound. Let's build it.”
