HONOUR THY MUSE

What would it mean to honour your muse?

Is there music inside you that’s been waiting patiently for you to bring it to life?

Have you had enough of being blocked and want to finally discover what music wants to pour from your soul?

DHÆMA (prounouned ‘day-ma’) is my new artist development and mentoring service. The word Dhæma means walking a path guided by our inner creative gods (what I call dæmons).

After twenty years in the music business as MC Xander, and employing techniques from my work as a psychologist within integrative and spiritual modalities, I’m now mentoring other artists through one of the deepest journeys a human could ever take:

making our soul’s music.

Whether you’re just starting out, beginning to build momentum, or you’re already an experienced artist looking to re-evolve, re-ignite your creativity, or take your vision to the next level, the work we do in DHÆMA is about unlocking your next exciting chapter of music, and of your life.

I believe that ultimately, how we relate to our soul’s path has everything to do with living a deeply fulfilling, beautiful life so let’s not waste any more time being stuck, let’s finally honour the music inside you, honour the muse.

THE WORK

ARTISTIC MINDSET

Unlock the power of a focused and resilient mind. We’ll work through resistance, doubt, procrastination, self-sabotage, and the inner critic – so you can show up for your art consistently and whole-heartedly.

PRIORITIES & FOCUS

Get clear on what matters most, so we can create a structure for your creative time best-suited to move you closer to your goals.

MUSIC THEORY FOR CREATORS

Build the fluency to express yourself with deep artistry. Whether you’re starting from scratch or want to deepen your skill, we’ll demystify music theory and turn it into a source of creative freedom.

WRITING PROCESS

Design your own reliable, repeatable music writing flow. From the first sketch to the final track, we’ll develop a sustainable daily/weekly creative routine that helps you actually finish remarkable music.

PRODUCTION & MIXING

Shape your ideas into release-ready tracks. We’ll walk through arrangement, sound design, mixing, and mastering, so your music not only sounds great, but stirs souls!

MARKETING STRATEGY

Make your music easy to find and hard to ignore. We’ll explore smart, authentic ways to share your work and grow your audience without burning out or selling your soul.

LIVE PERFORMANCE

Take your show to the next level whether on stage or online. Explore tools, setups, and creative strategies for compelling live sets, loop-based performances, and streaming shows.

VOCALS

Strengthen your voice both physically and artistically. Develop pitch, tone, rhythm, delivery, harmony and vocal presence, whether you’re a singer, rapper, beatboxer, or spoken word artist.

LYRICS

Write words that resonate. Learn how to craft lyrics with depth, imagery, impact, and emotion so your songs stay with people long after they end.

You don’t need to master everything.

We’ll start with an honest conversation about your goals, experience, and blocks – then choose the most meaningful next step for your journey.

DHÆMA PRICING

Here’s how it works:

We’ll start with a free 15min chat (book below). Then if we decide to work together, we’ll find a time slot that works for you and arrange six 50-minute mentoring sessions.

I offer my sessions for £50 per session and you can opt for either a weekly or biweekly schedule.

I work in blocks of six because in my experiece, that timeframe allows us to tackle significant goals that will result in a deep levelling-up of your creative projects.

In the fifth session, we’ll conduct a short review of your progress and decide whether to continue working together.

Use the form below to schedule a free call, and we’ll work out what would best support you right now.

Let’s Talk About Your Music

Let’s have a no-pressure, open, honest 15-minute call where we’ll explore what matters most to you as an artist, where you’re heading, and how I might be able to support that journey.
