Due to overwhelming demand, the Custom Song Project has been expanded to run until Valentine's Day, 2010! In order to retain our sanity while churning out these songs on a daily basis, we've raised the price to $99 to lighten demand. If you want a song in time for Valentine's Day, you MUST order your piece by January 10.
Ever wonder what separates you, your social organization or snarky music blog from great Americans like Shaft, the Dukes of Hazzard and Darkwing Duck? What those heroic men and waterfowl have that you don't is something very basic: their very own theme songs.
For the humble price of $99, the prolific composers who make up Dubious Ranger will write and record a song specifically for you, custom-tailored to your choice of subject matter, genre, instrumentation, lyrics, and lots of other open-ended parameters. Within 24 hours of ordering your custom song, you'll receive an email from Contact@DubiousRanger.com asking you to provide some song details. Then, 2-6 weeks later, you will be emailed an MP3 between 1 and 4 minutes long (it really depends on the material and song goals you give us), and an explanation from us about how we composed the piece. From then on, it's your song to have, to hold, and to love. You can share it with your friends, post it on Facebook or Twitter, use it as your ringtone, and regularly blast it from your '95 Pontiac if you want to look like a real egomaniac.
So hop on board and get your own custom song! We've already done a piece for someone who wanted to simultaneously annoy and encourage her little brother for a German language competition in Chicago. We've also made a song about elephant rights for Elephantvoices.org that sounds like Tom Waits covering Ween covering an Afro-Zeppelin drum circle. And if you're wondering about our ability to handle so many disparate genres, fear not... surf around our site for some of our originals and covers, check out the custom songs we just listed, and then please please ask us to write a country-experimental song about that time you lost your car keys at Dairy Queen on the way to your niece's Bat Mitzvah.
Some quick legalese: While this will be your song to own for life and share for free with everybody on earth, Dubious Ranger will still own the copyright for the song and recording, and our approval is required if you want to use your song for commercial/financial gain (for example: you want to put your song in a TV ad or the next Michael Bay movie). Our follow-up email will allow you to specify a deadline if you need your song by a specific date, however if there are already 25 songs ahead of you in our queue, we cannot 100% guarantee that your song will be finished within 25 days of your order.
