I need help mixing my songs (+more that I'm finishing soon), I keep ruining

I'm creating a song album that I'm to share with friends and hopefully i upload to Spotify and others through my country's distributor. I've done the recording (only two audios left to add extra vocals but main vocal done) though with a wireless coz I'm broke and can't afford to buy pro mic or any pro stuff.
Tried editing one of them and......it sounds not professional at all. I've watched thousands of videos but they're all so confusing coz ome video says do this, the other says don't do that, one teaches how to edit myself without using others presets but I feel like I've messed up.

If anyone is willing to help me out (for free, I'm broke and have zero money) through bandlab collaboration option (you can dm me or leave your username for bandlab in comments) and fix my audios and teach me in the process, I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

Help recreating guitar loops

I’m not sure if this is the right page or not but I wanted to ask about where or who I can ask about help recreating some guitar loops I made. Like composing or making them into full tracks. When I first started learning guitar I apparently had some crazy creative motivation and then I kind of stopped playing for a while and don’t have that spark anymore. I still have a bunch of loops saved on my pedal though and I have enough I could lowkey make an ep or something if I made them into a full track each and I was wondering where I could find someone to help or pay to do that.

Looking for vocalists for a parody album (don't need any knowledge or talent)

Context:

A friend and I started a musical project with very limited knowledge on music making. Our first album was mostly a parody of raw metal, but we’re now working on a second album that parodies music genres in general.

We’re looking for vocalists/collaborators for different tracks. You do NOT need to be a trained singer. Weird voices, spoken word, exaggerated styles, absurd ideas, etc. are welcome.

You’ll be credited on the song (and tagged if you have a Spotify page).

We can either:

  • let you write your own lyrics/vocal ideas
  • or provide lyrics/concepts

We already have instrumentals/demo tracks ready. Tell us what kind of music/style you’d want to be on and we’ll either send an existing track or make one around your idea.

DM if interested.

Multi-genre lyricist seeking musicians, vocalists, producers, and bands for collaboration.

Multi-genre lyricist seeking musicians, vocalists, producers, and bands for collaboration.

I write fully developed lyrics with strong emotional and structural direction, often with rough demo concepts and production ideas already sketched out as creative starting points rather than fixed outcomes. Open to a wide range of styles and interpretations depending on the artist and the song.

Interested in collaborating with people who care about building songs that feel immersive, honest, emotionally grounded, and fully realized.

Singers Needed for Original 1929 Novelty Song

I have the original sheet music for “Hottsy, Tottsy, Holy Cow,” a lightweight novelty song copyrighted by my father (Homer Calkins, 1911-1996) in 1929 when he had just turned 18. It's just the melody, but I'm looking to bring it to life and would love to find three or four vocalists to record an a cappella version or one vocalist overdubbing. Acapella or a strummed ukulele would be an appropriate.

I am not offering any compensation in return for what would be priceless for my family. If you're interested in breathing new life into a piece of vintage music, please let me know.

[OFFERING] You’re probably just one good mix away from releasing a song you’re proud to share and promote

Are you stuck agonizing over your mix?

Tweaking.
Exporting.
Re-exporting.
Slogging through tutorials trying to figure out why your mix still sounds flat.

Your vocals sound tiny and struggle to cut through. The overall mix sounds small, muddy, constrained… and this is the tenth time you’ve gone through the process, with each version somehow sounding worse.

You’re the type of artist I’m looking to work with.

I’m building my mixing/mastering portfolio and taking on a handful of artists. One song per artist.

I’ll deliver a fully mixed and mastered version ready for release/distribution. Genre doesn’t matter.

Most of my current portfolio is my own music, but I’m definitely looking to expand and collaborate with artists in other genres 👉🏾 Uncle Mark's Work

DM me your track and tell me what isn’t working.

You might not be that far off.
You could be just one good mix away.

Need a Song Producer (Alt Pop/Indie)

Hey! I sing alt-pop/indie songs and need a professional music producer or beat creator to make some beats. I just need simple, atmospheric background music, nothing dramatic.

Inspiration vibes: Lana Del Rey, beabadoobee, Gracie Abrams.

Right now, it’s mostly acapella/humming melodies that just need a moody, simple cushion underneath. DM me if you're interested and I can send over a raw vocal sample!

Looking for a vocalist for music project.

hey there 💫

as the title says i‘m looking for a singer/vocalist for a music project.

i‘ve put a demo on soundcloud so you can get an idea what i‘m aiming for ( https://soundcloud.com/bango-jongo/demo-looking-for-vocalists ) - the vocals i put on the instrumentals right now are from sample packs 🙆🏻‍♂️

i‘d love to make a little ep in that direction and release it as a shared release/maybe a band release?

only requirment is that you‘re into it and able to record your own vocals - i can take care of mix/edit and master.

even though the music doesn’t have to be political, please don‘t message if we can‘t agree on:

Black Lifes Matter
LGBTQ-Rights are Human Rights
Free Palestine and fuck Hamas/Religious extremism

let me know if you‘re interested

have a nice day 🫶🏻

Producer looking for rappers over 18

.[Offering] Producer looking for artists

Here is the pitch. I give you as many beats as you need to make as many songs as you want. You record your vocals with effects, send them to me and I mix and master the song. Then release it on my Producer account on Ditto under your artist name of course. Finally I make a press release and send your music to college radio stations in the USA and Canada. Over 300 total. My compensation is 15% of the Ditto royalties. If you use another beatmaker and I still do everything else it's 10% of Ditto royalties.

I have mostly East Coast, Boom Bap, Melodic Boom Bap, West Coast, 90s and early 2000 style beats. I send them by email

So here is how it works. I know someone who sends out mass email for a living. She will send an artist with their MP3s to college radio built around an artist bio I write up and put together. Then I know a Real Estate Agent who has been acting as my solicitor for years. To find out what songs are being played and where.. Both very professional and paid for their time.

You must be 18+ to participate.

If Interested be a US, UK or Canadian artist over 18 and DM me.

Looking for a Vietnamese speaking songwriter to help finish lyrics of a song

Hello, sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. I am a singer (this is actually my anonymous account to hide my true identity), and I am working on an album that focuses on 80s 90s genres specifically city pop and R&B.

One of the songs that I am working on will have a verse or two in Vietnamese. I want this because not only I think it will sound cool but also I want to surprise my family. I unfortunately and one of those who have what I like to call the “curse” in which I am not as good in speaking my family’s tongue (I am born and raised in America but Viet descent).

So I am looking for someone (no experience needed) who is able to write me a verse in Vietnamese as well as maybe a romanized version to help me sing it well.

You can find in my profile on one of my posts on the Vietnamese subreddit a clip of a rough draft (and I mean **rough** because it’s just a test 😬) of what the 1st and 2nd verse sound like (obviously they are in English) or to help give an idea of how the beat and flow are for this song. If you guys are interested, please let me know in the comments. Thank you.

Looking for amateur Afro House vocalist for a new project (113-122 BPM)

Hey everyone,

I’m an independent producer making Afro House / Minimal Deep House (vibe: MoBlack, Black Coffee). I recently released an EP and I'm currently working on some fresh, minimalist tracks.

Right now, I have a new instrumental sitting between 113 and 122 BPM. It has a very clean, open, and atmospheric arrangement, leaving plenty of room for a vocal idea.

Who I'm looking for:

I am looking for amateurs, beginners, or upcoming vocalists who are looking to experiment, practice, or just want to try something new. Whether you want to sing, chant, or do some atmospheric/spoken word vocals if you love the Afro House vibe, let's connect!

How we can start:

For now, let's just see if our styles match. If you're interested, shoot me a DM or comment below with a quick demo or a link to any rough ideas/recordings you have so I can hear your voice.

If it feels like a good fit, I’ll gladly send you a private SoundCloud link to the beat so we can bounce some ideas back and forth.

No pressure, just looking to create something dope together!
