Songwriting & Audio Production · Independent artists & small businesses

From voice memo to release-ready track: written, produced, mixed, and mastered.

Bacon Digital Labs helps independent artists finish their songs and gives small businesses audio that sounds as considered as the rest of their brand—with scope, revision rounds, and ownership agreed in writing before the first session.

Start with whatever you have—a voice memo, a lyric, a rough demo, or a reference track.

Wherever the song is, we pick it up from there

Some projects start as a hook stuck in your head; others are fully tracked sessions that just need a mix. Bring what you have, and we'll take it the rest of the way—from first lyric to final master.

Songwriting & co‑writing

Lyrics, melody, and toplines—co-written from your concept or demo, or written to a brief. Splits and credits agreed before the first line.

Production & arrangement

A rough demo becomes a full arrangement: instrumentation, programming, and vocal production built around the song, not a preset.

Mixing & mastering

Mixes that translate from earbuds to car speakers, mastered to streaming loudness targets, with instrumental and clean versions on request.

Audio for business

Jingles, sonic logos, and podcast intros and outros—with commercial usage rights spelled out in writing and files ready for every channel you use.

How a project runs

Creative work goes better inside a clear frame: references, deliverables, and revision rounds agreed up front, so the project actually finishes and you know exactly what you're getting.

In scope

  • Kickoff call covering references, goals, release plans, and deadline
  • Songwriting or co-writing from your idea, lyric, melody, or brief
  • Arrangement and production, from sketch to full instrumentation
  • Vocal editing—comping, timing, and tuning on recorded takes
  • Mixing with a set number of revision rounds, agreed up front
  • Mastering for streaming, download, and video
  • Delivery: WAV and MP3 masters, instrumental and a cappella versions, stems on request

What you get

  • A finished, release-ready track—not a folder of loops and rough bounces
  • Ownership, splits, and usage rights in writing before work starts
  • A revision process with a finish line
  • Files named and organized for distributors, collaborators, and sync libraries
  • Direct access to who's producing it—no studio middleman

Packages

Every project is quoted as a flat price per song or per deliverable, based on where it starts and how finished you need it—so the bill doesn't grow with studio hours.
