Ask to hear songs they've recorded in your genre. Check whether the hourly rate includes an engineer, and whether mixing and mastering cost extra. A cheaper room with an engineer who knows your sound beats an expensive room with one who doesn't.
Practice the song until you can do it in a few takes. Bring your beat or stems, your lyrics and a reference track that sounds like what you want. Studio time goes fast when you're figuring things out in the booth.
Ask for a mastered final, a clean radio edit and an instrumental. Then run it through our free radio-ready check and pitch it with our guide to submitting music to radio stations.
Every Independent Radio FM member is accepted. Send one song a week and it airs on a Saturday show with a personal DJ review.
