    Janaé E. is the real deal! With amazing talent and strategic instinct like hers, it's no wonder she is dominating in the sync licensing industry. Janaé is an innovative writer with fantastic vocal performance. She's also privy to mixing and production which makes her an especially valuable teammate on all ends of the spectrum. Work with Janaé and the value of your track will skyrocket, and you'll have a great time while you're at it!

    We had an awesome experience working with Janaé. She was responsive, professional, a good communicator, and receptive to feedback. She works quickly, while also knowing her limits and setting expectations. But most importantly, she is incredibly musically talented. She creates beautiful complex music that really makes you FEEL something, and understands how use music to tell a story. HIRE this woman! We hope for the opportunity to work with Janaé again.

    I love working with Janaé E. She did about 6 compositions for me so far and I love every single one of them. She’s very detail oriented and her musical scores always tell a story. I’ll definitely be back for more compositions. Janaé E has quickly become one of my favorite composers!
