Valentina Ahlmark on SoundBetter

I am a topliner and producer with 8+ years of experience in guitar playing, vocals and songwriting. I am a performer, composer and arranger, and have a Bachelor's degree in Songwriting. I will record the topline and vocal arrangements (+ BVs) to your song, and score a composition / production for commercial purposes and moving visuals.

I can write a catchy hook that stays with the listener for days. I can write melancholic lyrics that fit a gloomy day, or a danceable night out. I can deliver finished instrumentals and vocals. I can also compose for moving image with finished vocals / or instrumentals.
I will offer a large range of sounds shaped to what you require.

Despite my songwriting and production studies at University of Sussex (BA Hons), I studied guitar (both electric and acoustic) for 10+ years. I have also written music for short films, and arranged my work for smaller ensembles. Genres I work in are: pop and subgenres of pop (electronica, dream pop, alt pop,), cinematic, and world music.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Valentina is an excellent vocalist and communicator. She was extremely on time with every delivery and added so much to the song that I never even thought to add. I’m so glad we got the chance to work together and I can’t wait until our paths cross again!

This project took some twists and turns. But every step of the way, Valentina was professional, patient and really lovely. The end result was stunning vocals (for a song I had written), beautifully recorded. The best experience I've had on SoundBetter. Recommended!
