Original Music & Scoring

We compose and produce original music in our studio in Zagreb — scores for film and series, music for commercials, sonic logos for brands and songs written for individual artists. You can start from a brief, a reference track or an AI sketch; we take it from there to a finished, mixed piece — ready to go under the picture or out as a release.

What’s included

Whatever the starting point — a brief, a melody in your head, or an AI sketch you made on Suno — we turn it into finished music, played and produced by real people. We compose original scores for film, TV and advertising, write and arrange music for brands and artists, and bring rough ideas the rest of the way.

And when AI got you 60% there, we make it a record: re-recorded with live musicians, properly mixed and mastered, and cleared to release. AI can sketch a song in minutes — it can’t play it, feel it, or finish it like a person. That last stretch, the human finish, is what we do.

a.Original score for film, TV & advertising+

Composed-to-picture music, from a fifteen-second spot to a full film score. Written and produced across genres, scored to your edit and its beats, with revisions built in. Music that belongs to your project alone — rights cleared as set out in the offer, or bought out outright.

b.Music & arrangements for brands and artists+

Songwriting and arranging for a brand or a record: structure, harmony, instrumentation, across genres from classical to contemporary. Composition at industry level, working with your vision rather than over it. You leave with an arrangement that carries the piece on its own.

c.From a rough idea to a finished piece+

A brief, a melody in your head, a voice memo, an AI sketch — whatever the starting point, we bring it the rest of the way, played and produced by real people. What you get back is finished music, not a demo.

d.The human finish for AI sketches+

When AI got you 60% there, we make it a record: re-recorded with live musicians, properly mixed and mastered, and cleared to release. AI can sketch a song in minutes; it cannot play it, feel it or finish it like a person. That last stretch is what we do.

Pricing

Original music is priced per project, not from a menu — three things set the price, and we quote it once we have seen the brief or heard the sketch. If the piece is finished and only needs mastering, our mastering rates apply.

What sets the price
Length & formatA fifteen-second spot, a song, a series, a full film score — how much music, and what it has to fit.
MusiciansHow many people play on it, and which instruments — a solo piano and a string section are not the same session.
RightsQuoted per offer: media, territory and term. A full buyout — the music yours everywhere, forever — is available at a higher price.
Mastering of the finished piece
Stereo master€65per track · final price, no VAT
Stem mastering+€10per stem, on top of the stereo master · final price, no VAT
Extra format+€5per additional format — vinyl, digital or cassette · final price, no VAT

Every quote is a project price with the rights spelled out — there is no hourly meter running on a score.

A 20% deposit confirms the booking; the balance is due 30 days from delivery.

Questions we get asked

Asked and answered.

Can you finish a song I made with AI?

Yes — that is much of what this page is about. When AI got you 60% there, we make it a record: re-recorded with live musicians, properly mixed and mastered, and cleared to release.

Who plays on it?

Real people. Whatever the starting point, the music is played and produced by live musicians, recorded here — that is the whole point of the human finish.

Is the music ours to use?

Yes. Music written here belongs to your project alone — cleared and yours, for the media, territory and term written into the offer. If you want it everywhere and forever, a full buyout is quoted alongside.

What have you scored?

Among others, the campaign for Meralys (JGL) — which went on to win at Effie Awards Europe. A selection is in the grid below.
