Work Phases of Music production
My song production phases
When buying a song or a song package, familiarise yourself with the stages of music production here.
- When a producer claims to have made a song in two hours, it’s worth remembering that production stages can vary.
- For me each stage is meaningful and carefully crafted. Often many times over, because a music producer who understands the big picture will acknowledge his mistakes, even if they are not apparent in the initial production.
- The challenges come more often if the communication is not done properly at the beginning. Meaning requests and limitations.
- Each of these phases on the right will involve many detailed steps that we can go through together in consultation meeting.
- Making a song from your own head as opposed to applying it from a refrain is a completely different kind of production.

My limitations
Just a few things to note
I really want the artist/customer to have a say in the song production, however ultimately the producer has the final say.
- When the song is ready
- When the number or scale of requests is impossible to fulfil
- Meeting and respecting deadlines
