Dani King Music on SoundBetter

Just another artist on her grind. Let's create.

I'm a singer and songwriter from Chicago, now residing in Los Angeles. I have a degree in commercial voice with a minor in the music business from Belmont University in Nashville. I will sing and write to pretty much anything EDM, pop, or hip hop. I specialize in EDM however, no preference to the style!

Dani was awesome to work with! We recorded a lot of great vocal takes for the lead vocals, harmonies, and ad libs. We also recorded the lead vocals sung in different octaves as well. She is an excellent vocalist, was professional and fun to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone!

It was great working with Dani. She delivered a great range of melodies and lyrics that perfectly fit the vibe of the track. I would definitely work with her on future tracks.

Interview with Dani King Music

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: Working on Heartless with Swarm was one of my favorite songs released last year. I did a full choral arrangement for that song! I wrote the lyrics and melody, recorded, edited and produced the vocals. Swarm was a blast to work with and we were so proud of that project!
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Computer, mic, interface, guitar, monitors (gotta be able to bump that music)
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started singing and playing guitar in bars when I was 14 years old. I was so young my parents had to accompany me. I did that for a few years before going to college for music. I interned at Kemosabe Records (Dr. Luke's label) when the Kesha scandal broke and I decided that the business side was not for me. I moved to Los Angeles permanently in 2015, and went full time music in 2019. I play at bars around the greater Los Angeles area as well as work as a writer, singer, and vocal producer full time.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Soundtoys Decapitator is a fantastic saturator to use on vocals!
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Electronic is definitely my main genre, but I do work in pop and hip hop whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a little bedroom studio that works quite well, I work off of a macbook with a WA-87 mic with a small isolation booth attached, plugged into a focusrite scarlett solo. My monitors are Alesis and my headphones are behringer open backs. I record in Logic and do all of my own vocal editing and production. I have a guitar, stand up piano, and a keyboard as well.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Killboy, Blanke, Echoes, Krewella, Ganja White Night, Madeon, Highlnd, Sippy
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Be clear and concise about what you want. Please tell me if you do not like something in a top-line that I provide you - you will not hurt my feelings at all. The goal is to create the best track possible so let's do that by being honest with each other!
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I have a huge vocal range. My belt isn't super high (sits around a C5), but my chest voice spans D3-C5. My head voice (falsetto) spans E4-B5. I'm also a sucker for harmony stacks!
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Upon recieving an instrumental, I record 2-4 ideas and send the short ideas back to the producer. The producer gets to choose his/her favorite, and from there I write the rest of the song and demo it. I'm ALWAYS open to notes and edits so at that point I ask for what changes the producer might want. Once we are both happy with the way the demo sounds, I record and either edit down the vocal stems or send them dry depending on what the producer wants.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I mostly write and record melody and lyrics. I really enjoy what I do and I like creating a song as a collaborative effort!
