Commissions
I take commissions for vocal cover mixing, thumbnail illustration,
instrumental production, original song production and guest vocals.
Full-package plans that cover the instrumental, the mix and the illustration together are also available.
Feel free to get in touch even if you have not
worked out the details yet.

Vocal Cover Mixing
from 20,000 JPY
- Pitch correction
- Timing correction
- Harmony generation (it depends on the song, so it helps a lot if you can sing the harmonies yourself)
- Simple effects such as auto-tune
- Noise removal
- Mastering included
- Unlimited mix retakes
- Re-recording the parts that bother you and mixing them again costs nothing extra. Let us keep working on it until you are happy with the result!
Add-ons
What to prepare
- Vocal audio
- Instrumental audio
- A link to the original song or a reference track
- Song information such as BPM and key, as far as you know it
- An extra fee may apply for long songs, complex editing such as cut-ups, or a large number of tracks. Please ask in advance if you are unsure.
- I may have to decline if the recording quality is too poor, for example if there is a lot of noise.
- Collaboration tracks with several singers are not accepted. Solo vocal covers only.
Thumbnail Illustration
from 12,000 JPY
A single illustration with one character and a simple background.
If the character represents you, it helps if you can provide a character design sheet.
Unlimited retakes.

Please let me know if you need a key change.

An extra fee may apply for long songs or complex solo sections. Please ask in advance if you are unsure.

Retakes
There is no limit on the number of retakes for a commission from HALKA.
- “Could you make this part a little more like that?”
- “Could you bring the vocals a bit further forward?”
- “Could you change the sound here?”
- “Could you adjust the character’s expression a little?”
If anything bothers you, please do not hesitate to tell me.
I will adjust it as many times as it takes, at no extra charge, until you are happy with it.
I also send progress updates and check in with you while I work, so please bring up anything you notice as we go.
Delivery Time
Because I work on commissions alongside my own activities, I do not accept rush jobs such as within 24 hours or within a few days.
For any commission, please allow at least about one week.
The actual delivery time varies depending on:
- What you are commissioning
- The length and difficulty of the song
- The amount of work involved
- The retakes requested
- How many commissions I currently have
- HALKA’s own activity schedule
Plans that involve several stages in particular, such as:
- Vocal Cover Full Package
- Original Song Production
- Original Song Full Package
may take anywhere from a few weeks to a month or more, depending on the song.
I will give you a rough delivery date together with the quote, before production starts.
If you already have a release date in mind, such as “I want to post it on this day”, please tell me when you get in touch.
If there is not enough time to produce the work properly, I may have to decline.
How It Works
- Get in touch by email or on X / Twitter
- We go over the details of your request
- I send the quote and the payment details
- Production, review and revisions
- Delivery of the finished files
Payment
I will confirm the final quote and the payment method
after going over the details of your request.
Production starts once the payment has been confirmed.
For larger commissions, paying in installments can be arranged.
All prices are charged in Japanese yen (JPY).
