When words aren't enough, let music speak for you
From grief to gratitude to everyday love, WhatsYourBeat transforms your story into original music you can hold onto forever. Other services charge $199+ for this — yours is free, made possible by generous donors.
💝 No barriers. No cost. Just music that matters.
Born from Loss. Built for Healing.
"In every custom song Richard creates with you, there is a reminder that you're not alone."
In the wake of immense loss, Richard found himself searching for meaning, comfort, and connection. Music became the bridge between heartbreak and hope.
In honor of his late wife and their story, Richard created What's Your Beat — a gift for anyone who needs music to heal, celebrate, or be heard.
Richard's core belief: Money shouldn't decide how you grieve.
This isn't a business. It's a mission. Other personalized song services charge $199 or more. Here, yours is free — made possible by donors who believe in this mission. Every song Richard creates is a continuation of love, a tribute to the power of human connection, and proof that technology can serve the heart.

What Makes WhatsYourBeat Different
Not a business. A mission. A human-centered, technology-supported labor of love.
Free to You — Funded by Community
Other personalized song services charge $199–$250. Here, your song is free — covered by donors who believe healing music should have no price tag. No paywalls, no hidden costs, ever.
Human + AI Collaboration
AI helps with speed and musical variation, but your story and human emotional understanding guide every creative decision.
Emotion-First Music
Every song starts from your feelings, not from a generic template. The goal is resonance, not just rhymes and chords.
Built on Trust
Your story is treated with care, discretion, and respect. You decide how your song is used, shared, or kept private.
Meaning Over Metrics
WhatsYourBeat doesn't chase hits; it chases hearts. Success is measured by how much your song means to you, not how many streams it gets.
Zero Barriers to Entry
No musical knowledge needed. You simply tell the story; Richard handles everything else.
Real Impact, Real Music, Real Future
I'm turning real stories into real music, with a vision to help thousands find their voice.

Music Brings Us Together
Your song becomes part of a growing collection of shared human connection, celebration, and emotion.
Behind Every Song: Care, Craft, and Compassion
What's Your Beat is more than a website — it's a deeply personal project shaped by real loss and real love. Every request is read with care and held with respect.
Technology helps, but it's guided by a human heart that understands grief, joy, and everything in between.
- Thoughtful storytelling that captures your unique emotional journey
- Music tailored to your preferred style, tempo, and mood
- Flexible, judgment-free space for any story — no matter how heavy or light
Questions About Your Song
Everything you need to know about creating your personalized music
Yes, completely free to you. Other personalized song services charge $199–$250 for a custom song. Here, yours is covered by donors who believe healing music should be accessible to everyone — regardless of what they can pay. Donations support the mission, but they're never required or expected from recipients.
Typically 1–3 days. The website shows daily request slots so you know exactly when to expect your song. This is much faster than premium services while maintaining personal care.
No. Richard works with AI as a creative partner, but YOUR story drives the entire process. He personally oversees each request to ensure emotional accuracy and authenticity. It's human–AI collaboration.
You're free to download, replay, and share your song in whatever personal ways feel meaningful — at home, at a service, in a slideshow, or with the people closest to you. You can also have it sent to major streaming platforms like TikTok, Spotify, and Apple Music at no extra cost.
WhatsYourBeat can make thoughtful tweaks to help the song feel more 'like you,' but because AI is part of the process, it isn't always possible to recreate the exact same sound or version on demand. Richard will always do his best to get it to a place that truly resonates.
Other personalized song services charge $199–$250, and even budget alternatives start at $49. What's Your Beat is free to recipients — made possible entirely by donors who believe everyone deserves healing music, regardless of what they can pay. Same quality. No cost to you.
