Custom OC Musical Theme: 6/10 SLOTS OPEN!

Posted 3 years, 10 months ago (Edited 1 month, 4 days ago) by suitcasedragon


ABOUT:

Hey there! I'm kale, and I'm doing short music theme commissions! If you're interested in a commission, message me OR comment here! I'm more than happy to answer any questions you might have.

BACKGROUND:

I was classically trained in piano for ten years, and have cumulatively played for twelve years of my life. During the beginning of the pandemic, I started filling my time by experimenting with Musescore and noodling around on the piano. I've now been composing music, on the piano and digitally, for three years (give or take!). My most recent endeavor has been arranging my music for piano solor, and figuring out my workflow in a more advanced DAW than Musescore.

All purchases help fund my webhosting, online poetry, anthology publication, and all other extracurricular artistic endeavors!

UPDATES
Read for general timeline / before inquiring about waitlist availability.


Update 6/2/21: I am attempting to contact and complete my commissions at a faster rate. Thank you for your patience!
Update 6/4/21: Prices are now bumped up! Legacy prices available for all current slots and waitlist (before cutoff).
Update 6/7/21: The new-and-improved code embed with my credit is available HERE! Be sure to use some form of credit when posting (as per my T.O.S. above)!
Update 6/27/21: Short delay for exams! Pour one out for my free time; summer courses are going to do me in, I think.
Update 7/26/21: Thanks once again for your patience! I am working on contacting the next people in my queue now!
Update 8/10/21: Due to increased workload this fall, there will likely be another price raise soon! Legacy pricing will, again, be available for waitlist-dwellers. Thanks for your patience!
Update 8/12/21: Having some IRL issues, and I don't have time to track people down. If you get a message and don't respond within a few days, I will move down my waitlist! Additionally, if I send an invoice and it's not paid within a few days, I will move down my waitlist! If you pay / contact me after that, you will be fit in as soon as possible - aka after I get to the people who responded first. Thank you for your understanding!
Update 9/5/21: Everyone before the cutoff is now in the queue!
Update 10/15/21: Once again, your patience is appreciated! (Midterms, am I right?) Will be sending out messages to the next few people on the waitlist soon - stay tuned!
Update 2/9/22: Woo! Prices bumped up now! TL;DR explanation for this: I'm in a whole bunch of design classes right now AND looking for employment (got laid off due to budget cuts) and can no longer spend time on commissions that are working out to less than $5/hr for me. Commissions have been getting pushed to the bottom of the list because they're fun but not really sustainable! I also recently got access to a DAW & a new keyboard (Roland RD-88) with scholarship funds so. Stay tuned!!! 
Update 12/4/22: Getting close to the end of classes...I'm opening a short sale for 20-30s commissions which will be finished over winter break (Dec. 22/Jan. 23)! Thanks to everyone for sticking with me, I am incredibly grateful for the support over the past years!
Update 4/25/23: It's been a...while. A huge thank-you to everyone for sticking around through everything - new keyboard, exam seasons unto infinity, COVID, graduation - we've seen it all! I'm moving in May/June, so work may be slower over that period due to my computer not working unless it's plugged in. Afterwards I should be able to keep plugging along (ha!) and finish up my current queue! Again...thank you all so much!
Update 8/30/23: Happy summer! I've started a new job and but also finished moving (mostly), so I'm still plugging away at my queue. Thank you all so so much for your continued support and interest in my compositions!
