Music Content Creator (Part-Time Contract)

ABOUT DAYDREAM

Music is inherently real-time, but today’s generative audio tools aren’t: you prompt, wait, listen, change a few keywords, repeat. It’s difficult to achieve a flow state or do anything improvisational or long-running. We wanted more from our technology, and we asked ourselves “what would the synthesizer look like if it were invented in 2026?”

Our answer is Daydream https://daydream.live, a live remixing engine for your DAW. The Daydream VST lets you play, perform, and shape AI-remixed audio in real time right in your DAW of choice. The engine underneath it, DEMON https://github.com/daydreamlive/DEMON, is open source, and we're early in our journey to bring it to market.

THE ROLE

We're looking to hire someone to make genuinely great educational content for musicians and producers that helps them understand just how powerful Daydream's tools can be. Some of this content will be straightforward: loading the VST or M4L device, mapping the model's latent space to your faders and knobs, building a live remix, scheduling parameter curves on a timeline, etc. You'll also be able to make aspirational content that shows what's possible when you play an AI model like an instrument, the kind of video that makes a producer want to stop scrolling and fire up an Ableton session right then and there.

You'll own a mix of formats: longer tutorials that teach a real workflow, short social-first clips for X, Instagram, and TikTok, and aspirational Ableton pieces that are closer to a performance than a lesson. We care more about whether the content is interesting than whether it follows a template.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

You already make compelling DAW content, and you're comfortable in Ableton Live, Cubase, Pro Tools, or a similar DAW. You understand MIDI mapping and performance workflows, and you have a body of work we can watch; this isn't a role for someone learning to make content on the job.

A few things that matter to us:

• You should be the kind of musician or producer who views AI as a resource, a sounding board, and a creative partner rather than as a threat.

• You should be a natural teacher, able to explain difficult concepts in clear and plain English.

• You should have taste and a clear artistic direction.

• You should be comfortable producing high-quality edited video content at scale.

• You should have experience with the VST and M4L formats as well as MIDI and other hardware controllers.

• It helps if you have an existing audience, but a great body of work matters more than follower count.

• Live performance experience is welcome but not required.

LOGISTICS

This is a part-time contract role, and it's remote. We're flexible on cadence and can shape the arrangement around the right person. You'll work closely with our team, get early access to features before they ship, and have a direct line to the people building this product.
