When discussing music tech apps and tools, a lot of emphasis is placed on their ability to create music (a job Songzap does incredibly well), but I was also struck by the potential of the app as a tool for artist development. Not just the wider educational resources the app provides around songwriting, but how the immediacy of the technology enables artists to easily 'reflect' or critically listen back to their recorded performances. This not only improves their listening and creative thinking skills, but helps better prepare artists to perform while recording in a studio environment. In this respect, Songzap goes from a tool for making demos, to a wider platform that helps musicians on their journey of professionalism—as exemplified through the story of Wilfy Williams.

In the same vein, it made sense for me to hear that producers can also learn a lot through working in the more flexible mode of music production that Songzap enables. Not cleansing tracks of their emotional authenticity through studio polish, and perhaps embracing more of the DIY mentality that Songzap was designed around could help producers really highlight an artist's true 'vibe' without drowning it in technical processing.

This flexibility means Songzap has been designed to allow artists choose their own path, and not necessarily be limited by traditional concepts of song structure often imposed by linear DAW. Borrowing from artists themselves plus the Ableton workflow is a quietly transformative way of enabling artists to 'just create'.
