Every profile shows experience, past work, turnaround and rate. Filter by role, service type and budget, compare, then book directly online: no quote requests, no middleman.
The three roles come in at different points of a project. Beatmakers and composers create the production: the instrumental you will lay your vocals on. The sound engineer works on the sound itself — recording you live in session, mixing the tracks together, then mastering the finished song. Many professionals in the catalogue cover several of those stages, which lets you stay with the same person from instrumental to master if you want to. If you are not sure where to start, start from what you are missing: a production, a clean capture of your voice, or a finish.
Listen to the work first: it is the only criterion nobody can claim. Then check whether the professional regularly works in your genre — an excellent rock engineer is not necessarily the right call for rap, and the other way round. Years of experience and reviews from previous artists give you a sense of reliability, the stated turnaround tells you whether your release date holds, and the rate is displayed before booking. Finally, the lowest price is not always the cheapest: one revision round too many costs more than a professional slightly above your initial budget.
Booking happens online at the listed rate, with no negotiation and no quote. Payment is held until delivery: the professional is only paid once the work is handed over. You talk to them directly on the platform throughout, receive the first version, ask for your revisions, then approve. Files stay available in your dashboard once the session is closed.
Filter the catalogue by role, service type and budget, listen to the work of the profiles that stand out, then compare experience, reviews and turnaround. You book directly afterwards, with no matchmaking step in between.
Each professional sets and displays their own rate per service. The price depends on their experience, the type of work — recording, mixing, mastering, production — and the complexity of the track. The catalogue lets you filter by budget directly.
No. Everything happens remotely: recording sessions run live from your home, with the engineer streaming the instrumental and directing you. Mixing, mastering and production happen through file exchange.
Every sound engineer, composer or beatmaker applies and has their application reviewed before their services go live. Reviews left by artists after each session then stay visible on their profile.
You have the revisions included in the service to get the work adjusted. Payment is only released once you approve the delivery, and the Melo team steps in if the disagreement persists.
Yes, that is the whole point of working remotely. The only real constraint is the time difference for live recording sessions: the availability shown on each profile is converted to your own time zone.
