U170312PI

CURRENT SOUNDING ELECTRONIC POP INSTRUMENTAL CUES are U-R-G-E-N-T-L-Y needed for a specific project by a very successful, NON-Exclusive Music Library that gets tons of placements in Commercials, TV shows, and Feature Films. They’re on the hunt for mainstream sounding, Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues that are in the general stylistic ballpark of artists like, (but not limited to) The Chainsmokers, DJ Snake ft. Justin Bieber, Maroon 5, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the following references to get a feel for the vibe they need: “Closer” by The Chainsmokers ft. Halsey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PT2_F-1esPk “Let Me Love You” by DJ Snake ft. Justin Bieber: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMs0GnYze34 “Don't Wanna Know” by Maroon 5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANS9sSJA9Yc Even though the references have vocals in them, they’re looking for Instrumental Cues only for this pitch! Please send them well-crafted Electronic Pop Instrumental Cues that have appealing melodies, engaging rhythms, and tons of ear candy throughout. Your electronic elements should all sound modern and current, and in the general ballpark of what you’d hear from the references and other acts like them. Be sure to structure your submissions around a simple, but catchy melodic theme, while adding and removing instrumentation as your Cue progresses to keep it dynamically compelling and forward moving. All submissions should be approximately 90 seconds in length (give or take). Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best. Please do NOT copy or rip off the referenced artists in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, texture, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). This company offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE deal. Applicable sync fees will be split 50/50. You’ll get 100% of the Master rights and the Library will get 100% of the Publishing for any placements they generate. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this opportunity. All Submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis. No full critiques. Please submit 1-3 Instrumental Cues online or per CD no later than 11:59PM (PDT), on Sunday, March 12th, 2017. TAXI #U170312PI

Congrats!

PS - it would be best to remove the name of the library from your post so they don't get 500 emails from other people who haven't gone through TAXI
