Rates:
Disclaimer:
-Rates are flexible and liable to change based the type of project being commissioned.
-Final price will be determined through a negotiation process.
How music is charged:
-Music is paid for as a fee per minute of music.
-Although rates are flexible, at a bare minimum, $120 per minute of music is the lowest I will go.
-Complexity of song will vary the price.
-An ambient song like Twisted Tour that takes less time to do and has fewer complex elements would usually range from $120-$150 per minute of music
-An orchestral song with 20+ instruments like Mushroom Mine that takes me much longer to complete might cost closer to $300-$400 per minute of music

Other details about price:
-The exact price is determined by the second. For a 1 minute and 50 second piece, if the price was $120 per minute of music, it would come out to be $220. (2 dollars per second, times 110 seconds)
-Any music that I make has a minimum cost of $60. For example, if I charge $120 per minute of music, and I make a 5 second jingle, the song would NOT be 10 dollars. It would cost $60.
Ownership rights:
-Rights to ownership of the music will be determined through negotiation.
-Rights to sole ownership of the song will add an extra 75% to the fee ($120 per minute becomes $210).
-For any music sold separately, such as soundtracks sold on iTunes, etc., how much of the cut I will take in sales will be negotiated.
Other things to note:
-I do not work for exposure. I do expect to be paid.
-During a correspondence, I am happy to answer any questions and discuss any negotiations you might want to have. This is just a general guide.
