ZIA – Topline writer, Vocalist, Bassist, Guitarist, Producer / Composer

“Hi, I am a Topline melody writer, track writer, lyricist, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. I write in multi-genres including electronic, dance, R&B, pop, funk, rock, acoustic, blues, country influenced, emotive ballads, sound design for visuals and film, avant-garde, and children’s songs.

I write whatever (I term) “the muse” delivers as a download.

I quickly come up with melodic ideas and lyrics (Toplines) over dance, R&B and pop tracks, and 85% of the time I compose the tracks including acoustic songs, within the hour.

I am interested in collaborating with a variety of people and project types so that includes international DJ’s, Producers, Artists, Synchronisation companies, Publishers, Brands, Major Label Artists and Record Labels in dance, pop and multi-genres.

I use Logic Audio with UAD plug-ins, Apollo Interface, Beesneez Elly microphone in my home studio, leading software virtual instruments, utilising Skype, Dropbox and We Transfer for production and delivery.

How I like to work with people:

Working to a brief, using clear communication, understanding and delivery wtihin timelines, agreements signed and delivered for clarity and assurance of details for all parties, flexibility, enjoying the exciting creative and collaborative process. Great work + good fun creates success!

Working with DJs:

Standard Remix agreement for the writing of top-lines agreed upon and signed before commencement.

Legal Disclaimer: If my melody is not used after creating a topline, it reverts back to me, and the track  reverts back to the track writer. I commit my “intent to make a song”. Co-writers, labels, and companies may use any of my creations for any other track, if agreed upon and signed by both parties pre-release. Songwriting credits to be used wherever appropriate. An artist pseudonym or alias can also be used if better suited for the project/release and is in agreeance and signed by both parties pre-release.

To create a Topline for you – Send me the audio track in wav format and I will write the Topline lyrics and melody, and / or add keys and synth lines if required, record, and send as an mp3, and upon approval I will deliver files in wav files, for mixing and vocal production.

Working with Publishers / Label Artists:

– Send me the brief, Skype together, create, deliver.
– Send me the brief, meet in studio, write, record, deliver!
Standard co-writing agreement for the writing of Toplines (lyrics and melody) and all music parts agreed upon before commencement, evaluated on completion and prior track release.
