A song is not. People choose it, put it on again, and send it to somebody at two in the morning. If you have a brand, a product, an event or anything else you want heard about, there is room for your name here. The only rule is that the song stays a song.

What we can do

Sixwaysyournameendsuphere

Sponsor a song

Your name sits with a release: on the song page, in the description, and in everything that goes out with it. One brand to a song, so it never turns into a wall of logos nobody reads.

Your product in a video

The video songs are being shot anyway. Something that belongs in the room can be in the room, worn, held, poured or driven, without a line of copy anywhere near it.

A song written for you

Not a jingle. A real song carrying the feeling you are actually selling, made with one of our singers and yours to run in your own campaigns for as long as you want it.

A launch, said out loud

The letter goes to people who asked to be told when something is out. Your launch, your night or your offer can go with it, and onto the announcements page, where it stays.

Events and live nights

If you are putting something on and need a voice for it, or a name for the poster, we can talk about who fits and what the night would actually sound like.

Something that is not a brand

A film that needs a song. A book, a charity, somebody putting out their first release. If you want it heard about and there is something honest in it, ask anyway.

How it usually goes

Aplainanswerbeforeanybodysignsanything

  1. You tell us what it is

    What you are putting out, who it is for, when it has to be live, and roughly what you have to spend. All four together save about a fortnight of guessing.

  2. We come back with a shape

    Which singer fits, what we would actually make, how long it takes and what it costs. Written out on one page. There is no deck and there is no meeting to book a meeting.

  3. You hear it first

    A rough mix or a rough cut, early enough that changing your mind is cheap. Nothing goes out to anybody until you have seen the thing with your name on it.

  4. It goes out, then the numbers do

    Plays, how many people stayed to the end, and where they came from. Once after a fortnight and again after a couple of months, because a song keeps working long after a post has gone.

Start here

Telluswhatyouwantheardabout

Say what it is, when it has to be out, and what you have to spend. A budget is not a rude question here. It is the thing that decides whether the answer is one song or a season of them.

A person reads this. There is no automated reply.

Before you write

Things worth knowing

What does it cost?
It depends entirely on what gets made. Your name alongside a release and a song written and filmed for you are not the same order of money. Tell us what you have and we will tell you honestly what fits inside it, including when the answer is nothing yet.
Will it sound like an advert?
No, and that is the whole reason to do it here rather than somewhere cheaper. Nobody replays an advert. If the only way to make an idea work is to bend a song around a slogan, we will say so and turn it down.
Do we get to approve it?
Yes. You hear it and see it before anybody outside does, and nothing is published that you have not agreed to. What we will not do is rewrite a song after it is out because of one comment under it.
What do we get back afterwards?
Plays, how many people listened all the way through, and where the traffic came from, taken from the site itself. Real figures rather than a screenshot of a follower count.
Is there anything you will not take?
Yes. Gambling, anything sold on shame, anything aimed at children, and anything that needs a singer to say something they do not believe. Turning those down is most of what makes the rest of it worth anything.

Or write directly

hello@dardbharidastaan.com

Send a deck if you already have one. A paragraph and a date is just as good a place to start.

The letter

We only write when there is a song

No weekly round up and nothing to scroll past. When something is finished it goes out once, with the story behind it, and that is the whole arrangement.

One email per song. Leaving is one click and we do not ask why.
