MyDem on SoundBetter

Professional singer/songwriter offers vocals in many styles : pop, rock, blues, soul, experimental. I am very strong in creating melodies and hooks, I write lyrics and I have a wide vocal range. I am also a modern singing teacher, so I can drive my voice into very open spaces and characters. Passionate about creating vocal lines and moods,

I usually record in my own home studio.
I would send you dry or mixed recordings in high quality, we can talk more in detail about it!
I have recorded 5 albums in my career, worked with famous producers and appeared in many international projects.
I have worked as a professional singer for more than 20 years and I toured Europe, SouthAmerica and many other countries with my band.
I shared the stage with many big acts of the world metal/rock scene and played in important Festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Summerbreeze, Graspop, MFVF, 70000 Tons Of Metal, Hell &Heaven in Mexico..ecc...
I collaborated with known bands of the metal scene.

I offer:
*Full Vocal melody (Top Line)
*Vocals
*Vocal Harmonies
*Backing Vocals
*Melody
*Lyrics

I love to make a track sound good and I usually keep on working on its production until it sounds perfect to my ears.
I am totally natural in creating melodies and harmonies.

I offer this service not as a guest singer, in fact I do not want my name to be on your record unless we make a different deal (I usually charge lot more with my credit on a track), due to professional reasons.
I will make sure you will be extremely positive about the result anyway!

Feel free to contact me by email, and we can discuss more details. I am sure I can contribute positively to your project in the way you wish!

A: Guitar, a notebook and a voice recorder.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I am a professional singer since more than 20 years, I have had chances to work with very high level professionals, both on stage and in studio. I totally own my voice and my skills. I started with experimental theatre when I was a kid, that is where I got convinced I was meant to sing, then I join blues, rock and metal bands till I joined a Norwegian known band in 2007. Since then I started touring, being very into the music business and learned about everything else.

A: Writing melodies!
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring emotion, dynamic, straight forward feelings, good technique and a bunch of other good things!
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Depending on what I am going to do, I listen to the song a lot, in case it is only vocal recording I rehearse the song before the final step, and I do many takes. In case I am asked to mix the voice I do. If I am asked to write, I listen to the song a lot first and I start collecting ideas, turning around, finding what is best. When I am 100% sure the song kicks ass, I am definitely ready to record the final takes.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work in my home studio, where I usually record my vocals using a MAC computer, a Apogee Duet soundcard, a Supreme mic condenser or a Shure SM7B .
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I am inspired usually by too many, depending on the musical genre . I could feel inspired by a guitar melody of Joe Satriani as much as I can get inspired by a Kate Bush line or a Billie Eilish vibe.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: When I record vocals for a client, I am driven by its own emotion and vibe. I like to read what is in the other s mind, heart, art ...and build a mood from there, leaving my mark and vocal touch, I like to make it sound at its best and I really work hard for reaching the best results. Thanks to my experience I am conscious of the possibilities and the limits.
