Help me produce MY FIRST MUSIC ALBUM and build a Home Studio
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
My name is Jan Youssef, and I’m a guitarist and composer creating my first contemporary flamenco album—a project which started two years ago with the composition of my first song and gained strong momentum in the last three months as I got a blow of inspiration to create five of the remaining songs within five weeks. It was an inspiration and a big push toward composing and creating my own music.
I've written a poem for each song and am currently seeking a visual artist to create accompanying illustrations. Many more song ideas have come to me, and I’m already thinking about creating my second album.
To make this dream possible, I’m raising funds for two key purposes:
1. Recording and producing my debut album, including hiring a percussionist and a visual artist, designing the CD artwork, and printing physical copies.
2. Building a small home studio with essential equipment: microphones, a sound card, headphones, and—if there are enough funds—speakers.
Why This Matters
I feel I am at the point of initiation into the world of creating music, and I finally have a clear vision and dream of how this might look. These are important first steps in my path to sharing and keep creating music that inspires joy, connection, transformation, and depth. Your support will be an essential part of this process and will be greatly appreciated.

With gratitude,
Jan Youssef
