Jack Roamer on SoundBetter

Lyrical proficiency with harmonic and melodic alliciency. Ideas that get stuck in your head and simply won't let go, with supporting elements to set your mind aglow.

I'm a lyricist with over seven years of experience of writing and rewriting many a song about topics ranging from your simple yet effective heartbreak songs over complex mental health issues to societal critiques set in an imagined post-apocalypse. I'm also told I have a talent for getting my melodies stuck in people's heads.

I will help you get your ideas onto the page and make them shine by combining lyrically thought out word-strings with memorable melodies and interesting harmonies.
Most importantly though, it is you that makes the call on what your ideas are and are not gonna work with, so anything you want me to change will be improved twofold at the very least.

Expression of emotional ideas is my specialty, meaning I can put experiences to words that some others struggle to imagine, while keeping it coherent and even expanding the listener's understanding of the topic at times.

Whether you're just starting out on your project or need that final little thing fixed to make everything fit together, I'll help you get your project to the place you want it to be so you can get ready to record, finish, and release your work with pride.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Interview with Jack Roamer

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Look into the style of the one you're looking to hire as much as possible and don't stop searching until you find someone you're absolutely certain you like the style of. If my style doesn't suit your project you should look for someone more fitting and not settle for someone who won't be a good fit to work with.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started making music in 2016 and studied music production and sound engineering from 2018b to 2020, which is also when I got into writing lyrics. Being encouraged by my teachers I kept working, imitating other artists until I finally found my own voice with the song "BREATHE" in 2021. From the end of 2020 up until now I've concentrated on making as much music as I could and improving my skills more and more.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Anger induced melancholy is what I would call it. There's a sense of sadness to it as well, but the first thing you'll notice is the energy behind my vocal ideas being filled with a quiet wrath, if not a mad grief.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Experiment as much as you can. Try out effects on things they weren't meant to be used for to get more creative sounds and ideas. I started doing that ever since I put aototune on a piano to make it sound spooky without relying on the melody to be so. With the right settings many things can work that you wouldn't expect to work.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Lyricism in the sense of imagining worlds within words and finding the best fit for each worlds lyrical nature.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: A rich sense of emotion is what I believe I bring to each and every project I work on. There's always a specific vibe I wanna focus on and get out into the light, so to say.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: Depends on the project, really. But honestly there's a spark in every song that, as soon as I find it, gets me going like nothing else, and then the process is a mix of writing the best thing I can in the moment and revising my writing to make it as tight and imaginitive as possible while still keeping the listener's understanding of things in mind.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I'm still a bedroom producer at this time, but through my dad being a nerd (positive) about speakers and other audio gear I have high quality equipment without needing to put too much money into it.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Most of all Mike Shinoda and Linkin Park, apparantly that's so obvious you can tell from my drum writing alone that I listen to them a lot. Otherwise there's Ivan B, whose style of performance I really love, and NF, mostly inspiring the cinematic or orchestral parts of my music, but also the way I go about recording vocals.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Writing lyrics and melodies is what I do the most and it's what I excel at. But I also produce quite regularly and with joy.
