Work For Hire  Music composed to YOUR lyrics and YOU own the song

Songsculptor's WFH rates are an additional $100. to our 50/50 collaboration rates. Also > WFH does not include a Simple Demo Package and does not include any follow-up promotion from Songsculptor due to the fact that Songsculptor will have no claim to any of the song's copyright.

Have you heard the term Ghost Writer?  This is someone who is normally associated with the world of books and helps an author (who is not an expert in writing) to write a book. This is what I do in songwriting. I help lyricists who know little or nothing about music turn their words into a commercially viable finished song. Why do I do this   

 

What is "Work For Hire" ?  Work For Hire is exactly what the name implys. You hire Songsculptor to compose an original melody and chord progression to your lyric(s), then record a Professional C.D. Production of your song, and you pay a flat fee for doing so. The finished song (Words AND Music)  then belongs to YOU > You own the resulting song (words and music) 100 Percent  - no splits, no cuts. This is the technical meaning of the term "Work For Hire" (WFH) as defined by the U.S. Library of Congress Copyright Office.   OR > if you have a melody in your head for your lyrics but do not have the expertise to turn your Words and Melody into a Professional Song Production you can provide me with your own melody on a Tape, CD or MP3 file and I will tweak your melody, create an awesome chord progression for your melody, and turn your Words and Music into a terrific Radio-Ready Professional Song Production. Either way YOU own your song 100 Percent

I will compose a Unique and Innovative Original musical composition to an Original lyric that you provide.

The Inevitable Cost Of Doing Business

Unfortunately my service is not free, nor can it be. I love what I do with a passion, BUT > If I was to just give away my services I would be bankrupt many times over. Studio Space, Musician and Vocalist Talent, High-Speed Internet connections, blank media, Expensive Recording Equipment and Top of the line Computer Gear (that's always being repaired or upgraded), and the list goes on and on. It's all extremely costly. However, by utilizing our service we believe that you will keep your cost of doing business to a minimum. And make no mistake about it. SONGWRITING is a business And just like any other business, it takes money to make money.
