Simon Mudapakati on SoundBetter

A multi-talented songwriter, lyricist, and topline composer specializing in pop music. I have a great ear for melody, song structure, and understand what makes lyrics stand out and hit home: feelings come first. I've received high praise from established industry professionals for the quality of my compositions and unrelenting desire for quality.

** See sample tracks for songs I've written (lyrics and topline) and executive produced.

From soft pop to dark pop, radio pop, indie pop, folk pop, electro pop and pop-rap, I write it all!

I can provide:
- Lyrics to fit your topline melody (no demo recording)
- Topline melody for your lyrics (including demo recording)
- Lyrics + recorded topline melody (including demo recording)
- Executive production on EPs and albums, including advice on structure, beat selection and track choices

I prefer to write to instrumentals to give me an idea of the mood and tone of your project, however if you would like lyrics or a topline to add a beat to afterwards, this is also okay.

Additional notes:
- Available to review already made tracks for improvements.
- Open to video call if you would like to discuss your vision/concept in greater detail.

Splits:
Currently working on a work-for-hire basis, so the copyright is all yours after the job is complete.

My own artist project is based on my songwriting, under the name 'Tommy Osiris'.

Interview with Simon Mudapakati

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: My highlight track so far is Pressure by Tommy Osiris. From the moment of writing the first couple of lines I knew it was going to be something special, and the end result was exactly that.

  3. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  4. A: I promise to treat your song or idea as if it were my own. I'll work hard to tailor lyrics and melody provided to suit your style, energy, vibe etc.

  5. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  6. A: That anyone can write. Good writing is more than just words or a catchy melody. A lot of it has to do with taste and style. If you have neither, then you may have a very difficult time as an artist.

  7. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  8. A: The Weeknd or Adam Levine. Being able to write for artists with such strong and versatile voices, I'm sure only good things would come out of it.

  9. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  10. A: All kinds of pop, but love to venture into rap, rock and pop as they're all quite similar from a storytelling perspective.

  11. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  12. A: Taste. My greatest skill is being able to tell what sounds good and what doesn't. I also

  13. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  14. A: Passion, quality, and excruciating attention to detail. A misplaced word or syllable can sour the mood of a happy song.

  15. Q: What's your typical work process?

  16. A: Usually I find a feeling that I'm feeling, and meditate on it before letting it all out on paper. I usually write most of the lyrics first before focusing on melody. After the rough lyrics are written I'll drop the instrumental into a DAW and freestyle the topline from start to finish. I'll then revise the melody and finalize the lyrics. Afterwards I call in a vocalist to trace over my topline so the artist receives a professional and clear sound.

  17. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  18. A: Lana Del Rey! Her poetic songwriting and dark imagery inspire me to be both authentic and detailed in my work. I also love The Weeknd, SZA and Maggie Rogers as their writing work is always amazing. Sonically, I have a lot of respect for Tiesto and the consistency in the sound he is able to create.

  19. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  20. A: Writing lyrics and melodies that capture the mood, story or feeling that the artist is trying to express.
