Lemma Soft Forums

It's been really great working on anime and Japan-inspired theme songs for a number of developers on this forum. Thank you for your business and I'm doing my best to excel in this area.

I've seen a number of forum posts about songs with Japanese vocals and I've thought about offering this as a service, since I have connections to Japanese singers through my experiences in the video game industry and anime conventions. My thought was that I could produce a song with English vocals, and then also rewrite the lyrics in Japanese to make 2 versions of the song with the same music.

I recently talked with a Japanese singer and trustworthy colleague from a Japanese talent agency about this idea. It sounds like this could be done for a reasonable amount of money in scale with the work I'm doing already. I would work with them at my studio or closely oversee the recording to ensure quality control. I was thinking about doing one song like this as a demo to prove that we can hit the quality bar, but I wanted to try and gauge general interest first.

If I could do what I've described and assume the risk of making a demo first, is there anyone who might be interested in this for their project?

One nice way of having nice vocals in a cheap way is to make use of the Vocaloid system. Vocaloid's a pain to make work with most of the DAWs because YAMAHA has its own coding point of view, but you can try for instance Aquestone2 that gives you a way to get a quite sounding vocaloid in your DAW. And it's free! (I don't know until when though)
