Times change, and with them so do the opportunities. Whether you are a career music maker or just starting out, you may find the amount of information on audio production to be downright daunting. For decades, music was recorded in pretty much the same way; on magnetic tape, in a traditional recording studio. The digital age and the internet has blown this concept to bits (pun most certainly intended). So how do we as music makers, take the most advantage of these trends, while remaining true to our musical roots?
Collaborate with a music maker at Demo My Song. If you’re a songwriter, DJ, or producer and have a great instrumental track but no vocal, we can help. You can provide us with a lyric sheet or no words at all, and we can come up with an original vocal melody and lyrics for your track. Or perhaps you do have a recording of you or someone you know singing your song, but you KNOW it could be better! Let’s face it, not all of us can be Adele or Ed Sheeran. If you have a great song, sometimes the only thing holding it back is a great vocal performance. If this sounds like you, then consider hiring on our session singers to help.
There is almost no question that sheet music software will someday be powerful enough to transcribe music with close to 100% accuracy simply by analyzing the audio. Until then, it’s up to real humans to do the work. Luckily however, there are great computer programs for making sheet music easier like Sibelius, or the free Musescore. If you need help with creating sheet music or making a lead sheet for your song, we can help!
If you are looking for some music apps to get started with or to expand your existing arsenal, here are some of our top recommendations. We have specifically chosen options that are affordable, but that are still used by many audio professionals and beginners alike.

Music maker apps and software can be very useful at times, and very frustrating at others. Some amazing music can be made now using simple and cost effective tools. It all comes down to how you use them. Still, even with all these cool tech tools and tricks for making music, sometimes there is no replacement for collaborating with with real people; your friends in musical arms. There are some pretty cool new music maker apps and online experiments emerging for music learning. Chrome Music Lab for example, let’s you explore making music through a number of very simple, but educational online tools. As A.I. (artificial intelligence) becomes increasingly influential in how we build our technology, it will be interesting to see how these changes affect the ways we make music together.
