Thanks for the thoughtful answer @taubstumm
I've put in an order on fiverr anyway, we'll see how it comes out. There is a certain amount of collaboration involved, but realistically this is very much me hiring someone to do a job.
I obvs don't see it as problematic. She gets a hundred quid for an hour's work, I get something that sounds cool. Obvs if it was a massive hit and we made a zillion quid out of it that wouldn't be fair, but given our track record it's likely it'll be heard by at most a few hundred people. One way or the other we talked about that and she's totally not interested in any ownership of the track - presumably dealing with amateurs like myself has taught her that we don't have hits, and there's just no point. AFAICS there's no loser here, except for my kids having their college fund spent on their Da's ridiculous hobby.
... but I guess that's neither here nor there. Twitter can't be reasoned with or appeased
