Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! You'll find no AI avatars here. I've been composing music since I was about 14 years old, beginning on an old Hammond organ my dad got from a friend. I am mostly self-taught as a musician, having failed at piano lessons as a kid.

Nope. The shop, streaming, playlists, admin tools — all of it runs on plain, hand-written PHP and JavaScript by yours truly. No AI is generating content, making decisions, or running anything here.

All of the music here is my own. I write my own lyrics and create my own melodies and riffs using a custom PHP/JS piano recorder (that I programmed from scratch), in addition to my actual piano. I heavily edit each track, rearranging instruments and layering in my own sound files and vocals using my own voice recordings for most of them. I do a massive amount of coding and composing before any of my songs get released. I do use Suno to assist with some arranging and blending in samples, but mostly as a sesssion band. I don't have my own band (yet) so Suno acts as one for now.

No — checkout works as a guest with just your email. You'll only need an account (joining the Fan Club) for things like playlists, hearting tracks, and unlimited lyrics.

Yes, streaming previews are free and unlimited. Lyrics are free to view for your first few listens to a track; after that, viewing lyrics requires a Fan Club membership — the music itself always keeps playing either way.

A download link delivering a zip with the full-quality MP3, cover art, a lyrics PDF (when available), and a license for personal use.

Download links are valid for 30 days after purchase, with a generous number of downloads allowed in that window. Contact shop@weehours.studio if yours has expired and you still need the file.

Unlimited streaming and lyrics access, the ability to build and save your own playlists, heart/favorite tracks, 20% off the music catalog (10% off merch), and access to Members-Only Discord areas. (More coming!)

Yes — Fan Club members can create playlists, add and reorder tracks, and pick up playback from the floating player anywhere on the site.

A live-feeling internet radio station at weehours.studio/radio, playing my music around the clock — scheduled segments, listener requests, and a default rotation the rest of the time. Everything played is my own original work.

Yes — the stream is free to play in a public or commercial space, as long as there's clear attribution nearby, like a QR code or sign pointing to weehours.studio/radio. No separate license or payment needed beyond that. As an independent artist, that attribution is genuinely how people find me — every person who scans the code or hears the name is someone who might become a listener, a Fan Club member, or just tell a friend. It costs nothing and helps more than you'd think.

No, purchasing a track or album or joining the Club only grants a license for personal, non-commercial use. Contact me at shop@weehours.studio for commercial options.

Yes absolutely! I like to eat. Contact me at shop@weehours.studio and tell me a little bit about your project and what you need. (I can pretty much build anything but I reserve the right to turn down projects for any reason.)
