Our story
Music isn’t just what we do—it’s who we are. Founded by Damian Delahunty, a producer with close to 30 years of experience, our mission is to create music that’s authentic, meaningful, and unique to each artist or project.
Damian’s journey into music began with a passion for storytelling through sound and the joy of playing and capturing original music. Over the years, he’s developed his craft across pop, R&B, Afrobeats, Rock and Folk, working closely with artists to bring their creative visions to life. Music by Dela was created to offer not just high-quality production, but a collaborative and personal experience that puts the artist’s story at the heart of every track.
We believe every project has a story to tell. Whether it’s helping an artist find their sound, creating music for a brand, or working on a track for film or TV, we’re here to bring those ideas to life. With a blend of analog warmth and digital precision—and the option to include live musicians—we approach every project with care, creativity, and a commitment to excellence.
At Music by Dela, it’s not just about making music—it’s about creating something that resonates.
Our values

Collaboration
Great music is a team effort. We prioritise open communication and a collaborative process, ensuring every client feels heard and involved in bringing their ideas to life.
Excellence
We’re dedicated to producing music of the highest quality. From the first idea to the final mix, every detail is handled with care and precision.
Creativity
Music is an art form, and we embrace the creative process. Whether it’s experimenting with new sounds or blending genres, we strive to push boundaries and deliver something truly unique.
Connection
We believe music has the power to resonate and inspire. Our goal is to create tracks that not only sound amazing but also connect deeply with listeners.
