Modern production companies search for music constantly — for edits, pitches, client reviews, versioning, and final delivery. The challenge isn’t just taste. It’s speed, iteration, and not losing the thread across refs, links, notes, and last-minute changes.
Robin is MusicAtlas’s workflow for production — built to keep the core loop in one place: search, preview, refine, check lyrics, organize, and share a shortlist. When it’s time, hand off to supervision and clearance with clean context.
Common starting point: paste a creative brief (or a temp/reference track), run an intent-driven search, then refine by vibe, energy, lyrics, and practical constraints — building a shortlist your team can align on.
Production teams don’t have time to “translate” vague direction into rigid tags. Robin is built for the language people actually use in edit bays and review calls — the “make it feel bigger,” “less cute,” “more tension,” “modern but not EDM,” moments.
Start with a brief. Search from tone, pacing, genre references, instruments, era, and emotional arc.
Start with a reference track. Find neighbors by sound and intent, then widen or narrow the zone.
Iterate fast. Refine from results: “more punch”, “less aggressive”, “bigger hook”, “more intimate vocal”, “darker theme”.
Most of the work happens before a supervisor is even in the loop. Robin helps editors and producers get to “this is the direction” faster — while reducing risk in the creative review process.
Listen immediately. Preview tracks without jumping across platforms and tabs.
Check lyrics inline. Validate narrative fit and brand safety early (before the client hears it).
Stay on brief. Keep the intent and creative notes attached to what you’re auditioning.
Note: preview and lyric availability depends on the specific catalog(s) and partner data available in your workspace.
Production workflows are messy: multiple cuts, multiple stakeholders, and multiple “close but not quite” options. Robin supports lightweight organization so teams can stay aligned without building a spreadsheet every time.
Save instantly. Star tracks the moment they feel right.
Tag by edit context. Create tags like “intro build”, “reveal”, “end button”, “alt vocal”, “client safe”.
Keep A/B/C options. Preserve why each track made the cut so you can revisit quickly.
The best production teams don’t just send links — they send direction. Robin keeps the “why” connected to the “what,” so it’s easier to align internally, share with clients, or hand off to a supervisor for clearance and licensing.
Shortlist by intent. Send options grouped by scene, tone, or creative approach.
Reduce back-and-forth. Keep creative notes and constraints attached to each option.
Handoff cleanly. When supervision joins, the shortlist already has the decision trail.
Robin supports production-first discovery. Licensing workflows depend on your team’s process and catalog partners.
