Topline & Songwriting Sessions

Melody and lyric writing over your track or ours — sessions that end with a demo, not a voice memo.

A great production without a topline is a loop. Topline sessions turn instrumentals into songs — melody, structure, hooks and lyrics that hold up when the arrangement is stripped away.

How sessions run

We work in person or remotely, starting from your track or writing from scratch. Every session ends with a demo vocal recorded and comped, so you leave with something you can actually play to people.

Included

  • Melody and hook development
  • Lyric writing and revision
  • Song structure and arrangement decisions
  • Demo vocal recording and comping
  • Split sheets completed before the session ends

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we write remotely?

Yes. Remote sessions run over video with file exchange between takes, and work well for established briefs.

How are writing splits handled?

Splits are agreed and documented on a split sheet before the session ends, which avoids the disputes that surface years later.

Do I get a demo vocal?

Yes. Every session ends with a recorded and comped demo vocal so the song can be presented immediately.

Can you write to a brand or film brief?

Yes. Toplines written to commercial and film briefs are a regular part of the work.
