Real Voice. More Choice.

"If your words deserve a different style, I’ll give you that choice. An AI voice won’t. 


Every word I read, I understand. An AI voice can’t. 


I care deeply about every word I say, and how I say it. An AI voice doesn’t. 


Your words are your brand, your mission, your mood: I treat them with the respect they deserve, refining each take to find the perfect delivery, because takes 3 and 4 are often better than takes 1 and 2. 


At Danmade's brand new Allen Road studios in southeast London, customer choice and satisfaction go hand-in-hand, from additional takes and free re-records, to MixReady audio within 2 hours, and the option for you to direct the recording session. 


At Danmade Studios, it's all about YOU and I, not AI."


Dan Akers

Voice Artist & Content Producer

Owner, Danmade Studios, London

Multiple MixReady takes within 2 hours, delivered with and without processing. You also get free re-records, even post-recording session script amendments, and because I own my own studio, you'll get a fast turnaround.

I'm interested in eveything you write about, so I'll visit your website and learn more before I record, so I sound as enthuiastic and knowlegeable as possible. I'll even check prounciations so you don't have to.

Apple,Avid, beyerdynamic, and Black Magic Design are amongst the industry-leading names you'll find in our brand new Allen Road studios. For more details, keep scrolling to see the latest Danmade Studios Kit List.

Here are four of my favourite voiceover jobs from August and September 2025 — for Aston Martin, DP World, IBEX, and David Weksler. Each one called for that “deep voice, poetic, sonorous” tone I love: gravelly, rich, and full of nuance.


As a kid, I was mesmerised by Richard Burton’s narration in Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds. His voice felt physical — like a subwoofer inside my skull. It made me realise why Beethoven, though deaf, could still feel music. Close-mic and quiet is where the magic happens. Imperfect, intimate performances — croaks, cracks, breath — that’s where the emotion lives. And that’s why the human voice is still the most powerful instrument we have.

Dan Akers' REAL Voicereel

From audiobooks and ads to e-learning, explainer videos, and public transport announcements, Dan Akers has voiced scripts across nearly every platform worldwide. His 2023 voicereel features highlights including commercials for Thailand Tourism and Dulux, e-learning for American Express, and his London Underground voice — reprised for London’s 2023 New Year’s fireworks, broadcast to 12 million viewers on BBC One, BBC America, and YouTube.

Video Production: TM Forum

In 2024, Danmade Studios produced 50 YouTube videos for TM Forum’s annual Catalysts competition. Dan directed global telecom submissions remotely via Riverside, overcoming poor webcam audio and eye contact using Descript’s Studio Sound, Eye Contact, and iZotope plugins. He handled editing, stock footage (Envato Elements), and custom motion graphics, even recreating TM Forum’s branding in Apple Motion due to missing assets from a previous agency.

Our emotional intelligence turns words into reality. When spoken, they can make you laugh, cry and empathise. Spoken words are incredibly powerful, but well-spoken words are undeniably human.
