The process
Voice note
Voice note
to release.
Four steps, no guesswork. You always know what is happening, what it costs and when it lands.
01
Send the idea
Pick a beat or send a reference. We agree on key, tempo, references and a budget before anything starts.
02
Build the bed
Production is arranged around your vocal — not the other way around. Demo approved before tracking.
03
Track & edit
Guided vocal session, comping, tuning and timing. We keep the performance human and the tuning quiet.
04
Mix & master
Release-ready masters at streaming loudness, plus a cleaner club version when the record needs it.
Inside the room
A studio built
A studio built
for the take.
LMJ Records is a working production room, not a showroom. We track vocals through a warm signal chain, produce in the box and monitor on speakers that tell the truth.
That means honest notes, fast turnarounds and records that translate from earbuds to a car in Mombasa.
- Neumann-style condenser + SM7B
- Apollo-class interface & preamps
- 5" near-fields + sub reference
- LLC / UAD / FabFilter chain
- Treat-only vocal booth
- Stem-ready delivery
Word in the room
What artists
What artists
say after.
The best part of the job is hearing the record on someone else's playlist.
★★★★★
“I came in with a voice note and left with a record. The mix made my vocal sit exactly where I wanted it — nothing felt buried.”
★★★★★
“The drill beats knock, but the part that sold me was the notes. They told me where the verse dragged and fixed it in the arrangement.”
★★★★★
“Sent my stems from the coast, got a master back in two days. It sounds like the songs on my playlist now.”
