kobu
Hi! I'm Kobu, a classically trained music producer, composer, and cellist. I make DMCA-free music in a variety of styles and genres.
If you would like to use the music I've uploaded to my channel, I request only that you always credit me and link to the source where you found it (my YouTube page, Spotify profile, etc.). You may only use pieces that state "DMCA-free" in their description on YouTube. Failure to follow these terms may result in a takedown notice at my discretion.
Commission information
Commissions are currently OPEN WITH LIMITED SLOTS. Pricing information is as follows. Additional processing fees will apply. All rates are in GBP:
| Type | Rate | Turnaround time (subject to change) |
|---|---|---|
| Full piece (e.g orchestrated ensemble work, multiple elements/tracks, through-composed solo piece) | 150/minute | ~1-2 weeks |
| Exclusive piece, any instrumentation (only available for the commissioning individual's use) | 300/minute | ~1-2 weeks |
Payment is due upon request of the commission. I will not edit completed commissions retroactively.
If outside personnel are required to complete a piece (e.g you request for a vocalist to sing on the track or a violinist to play) an additional fee of 150/minute of their contribution is required in order to compensate them for their services. I reserve the right to select the outside personnel.
Please direct all business inquiries to [email protected]. Email is the fastest way to reach me, alternatively, you can contact via Bluesky or on Discord (@kobu)

more about kobu
I'm a prizewinning classically trained cellist and composer currently studying at the Royal College of Music in London. In my 20 years of playing IRL, I've played on numerous film scores as well as performed and written music in all genres (pop, jazz, contemporary). As kobu, I've scored animated short films, written custom diegetic music for top D&D creators online and created BGM and custom music for numerous content creators & VTubers.I'm a performing member of the VTuber Symphony Orchestra, the only recording orchestra comprised solely of VTubers. With VTSO, I've recorded for and led the production of several covers of anime and video game soundtracks.Creating VTuber content is a treasured hobby of mine, and I'm very lucky to be able to integrate my musical training into that space. Consider checking out my solo music on YouTube, Bandcamp, and all streaming services such as Spotify & Apple Music. Thanks for reading, and stay in tune!
