We'll figure out exactly what you need for your project and lay everything down. We'll make sure everything is as you want it and we'll send you home with the raw stems for you to mix elsewhere.
This is a good option if you're already comfortable mixing, but don't have the time or ability to track on your own.
You send us your stems and we make it work. If there are any problems in your project files, we'll let you know right away. We'll do our best to make sure everything is solid, but there's only so much we can fix.
This is a good option if you feel confident in your base recordings but need some help bringing it home.
We'll work together from start-to-finish to make sure your project is exactly what you're looking for. We can even cut some live room demos for no additional cost. We only charge when we're helping you deliver your final product.
This is a good option if you need a bit of a guiding hand or are looking for outside perspective.
Every artist that records a major project with Dime-Up has the option to get their music distributed digitally completely free. For smaller projects (EP's, singles) we can help you figure out what your best option is.
After we've gotten your music to a point that you're happy with, we can send it to all relevant streaming services, as well as link it to your social media accounts so you can avoid DMCA strikes against yourself.
We're also able to help with affordable physical media options (currently limited to CDs and cassettes).
We can explore what works for you while maintaining a low per unit cost and minimizing the amount of cash required up front.
If you plan on doing your full project with us, we can work cover art design into your initial estimate, while keeping your overall costs down.
We can discuss different options and styles, including what might suit distribution better or what might fit your sound.
We want your music to do well.
We can work with you to come up with a plan to promote your music across different networks and foster organic growth.
If you have an advertising budget and an interest in ads, we can also help you plan and launch an ad campaign supporting your release.
You want to book shows?
We want to book shows!
Booking can be stressful, overwhelming and confusing. We can't promise to take it over completely, but we can help you book shows more consistently across Calgary.
(Ideally more cities in the future.)
Dime-Up is the independent recording and production label set up by the members of Dismania.
The goal of Dime-Up is to present local Calgary bands with an affordable option for getting high-quality recordings that showcase their sound in a way that home recordings can sometimes lack.
Presenting an outside perspective with a DIY feel, the members of Dismania are used to getting creative with recording and will work with you to figure out the best way to accomplish your music goals.
