A FEW THINGS BEFORE WE START
How does this actually work?
You tell us the story. We listen for what matters — including the things you almost forgot to mention.
Then we turn it into a song that sounds like it belongs to that story, not to anyone else.
You’ll hear a first version, and from there we fine-tune until it feels right.
How personal can the song be?
As personal as you want it to be.
Names, places, strange little habits, private jokes, memories, the way someone looks at you — those are often the details that make a song yours.
You decide what you want to tell us. We’ll take it from there.
Do I have to know what kind of music I want?
No. Actually, sometimes it's better if you don't.
You can tell us what you love — and what you absolutely don't. If you already have a style, mood, song or artist in mind, tell us. References can help us understand what you're hearing in your head.
But we don't force a story into a genre just because someone picked a box — and we don't simply copy an existing song or artist.
Sometimes the story points somewhere unexpected.
We listen for that.
How long does it take?
Good songs take a little time.
Every story is different, and we don't rush a song just to get it out the door.
Once we know your story, we'll let you know what our current production time looks like.
Because fast is easy. Right takes a little longer.
What do I actually receive?
WHAT YOU GET
One personal song. One story. Made just for you.
No templates. No song factory.
We turn your story into a song that belongs to you — with the right voice, the little details, and the moments that matter.
You'll receive a first version by email so you can listen and tell us what feels right — and what doesn't.
One revision round is included.
Your finished song will be delivered digitally, together with:
- Your personal song — ready to listen to, download, and keep.
- Individually designed cover artwork — created especially for your song and its story.
- The complete lyrics — beautifully presented.
- A translation — if your song is in a language other than your own.
Everything delivered digitally. Nothing mass-produced.
One song. Your story. Made to stay.

What happens after I place my order?
After your order, we’ll get in touch with you personally. There’s no generic questionnaire to fill out — we want to hear the story in your own words. The little details, the memories, the odd habits, the things you nearly forgot to mention. That’s usually where the song is hiding.
Can I give a song as a gift?
Absolutely. Some of the best stories aren't our own.
You can create a song for someone you love — for a birthday, a wedding, an anniversary, a new beginning, or simply because there is something you've always wanted to say.
And sometimes a song isn't really made for today.
It might be for a little person who will only understand what you gave them twenty years from now.
Do you use AI?
Yes. AI is one of the tools we use to create the music.
But a tool doesn’t know your story. It doesn’t know which detail matters, when a lyric feels wrong, or why one version sounds beautiful but somehow isn’t you.
That’s where Four Strays comes in.
We listen, write, shape, discard, compare — and keep going until we find the one that feels right.
A machine can make music. It doesn’t know when it has found Amira.
How do you choose the final song?
Not every good song is the right song.
We listen, compare, leave things alone for a while and come back with fresh ears. Some versions are beautiful — but they’re not yours. Those don’t make it through.
Sometimes we know almost immediately. Sometimes it takes a little longer.
We don’t send you every song we make. We send you the one we believe is yours.
What if I want something changed?
Before we finish your song, you’ll receive a first version to listen to.
Tell us what feels right — and what doesn’t. If something needs adjusting, one revision round is included.
Once you give us the GO, we finish the production and prepare your final package.
The goal isn’t to convince you that we got it right.
The goal is for you to hear it and know.
