New to Taxi and a Good Day to You All.

Post by Markzilla » Sun Jan 29, 2017 8:58 am

My name is Mark Chatham, I live in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, in eastern Canada. My writing partner (Don Dupuis) and I work under the name "Groove Fondue" which we used to join Taxi. Hopefully, I'll be able to have my username changed to "Groove Fondue" rather than the generic username I tend to use on the net. I'm 58, retired and looking to generate some revenue to make retirement more secure. With my skill set, songs and instrumental cues seem to be the way to go. Sold the house in June, downsized to an apartment acquired the gear I'd need and went to work. Joined Taxi in September and uploaded songs from a CD we did in the 90's and recently started pitching, with no success yet but the reviews are invaluable. I'm liking this community big time.

Here's a link to our Taxi profile:

All but one song are from '95 and it was essentially something with which to start.

I've just finished a song called "The Only Thing I Know for Sure" for which I wouldn't mind input, but after reading the FAQ, I'll now move over to "peer to peer..." and I thank you for your time.

Welcome Mark, from a fellow Canuck! I've heard Dartmouth is lovely. I'm at the other end of the Trans-Canada :D

Sorry, I didn't see this until now. I've been hanging on these boards since maybe 2005, and I've been a TAXI member for most of the following years as well. Cheers.
