RETRO ELECTRONIC FORWARD

Post by daveydad » Thu Mar 09, 2017 1:50 pm

Nice to have an old track sitting around that gets noticed with a forward!

https://soundcloud.com/davidhollandsworth/rising

ELECTROCLASH/ RETRO ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed for several $1,500, Direct-to-Music Supervisor, NON-Exclusive placements in a new Science Fiction TV Series done by the same producers as the hit TV show, Mr. Robot. They're looking for retro sounding, Mid-to-Up Tempo Instrumental Cues that could be heard on a playlist with artists like (but not limited to), Droid Bishop, M83, Dynatron, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the following references to get in the stylistic range of what this Music Supervisor needs: "Nightland" by Droid Bishop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wQR-jgw7PI "Midnight City" by M83: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX3k_QDnzHE "Stars of the Night" Dynatron: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5-mD6Dy7c0 Please submit original Instrumental Cues with an authentic Retro Sound and feel. Your instrumentation should use early, classic-sounding synths, pads, and leads that are reminiscent of the 1980s and 1990s electronic wave. Drums with tons of reverb will also help your Cue emulate that retro vibe this Music Supervisor is after. Recent recordings that sound retro will work for this, and if you've got any original vintage pieces that actually date back to that era, this Supervisor is likely to be all over it!All submissions should be at least 2 minutes long, with good edit points and buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy or rip off the referenced music in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a general guide for feel, texture, tone, and vibe. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). The estimated license fee for this use is $1,500, depending on the ultimate use. This is a Non-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor pitch. You'll get 100% of the sync fee, and 100% of any applicable performance royalties. Plus, you'll also keep 100% of your Publishing and Master ownership. You need to own or control your Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. Please submit 1-3 Instrumental Cues online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis by a TAXI screener handpicked by the Company - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than on 11:59PM (PST), on Friday, February 3rd, 2017. TAXI #Y170203RE

Congrats, and I said about my own forward, I hope its a good sign for you as the Music Supervisor himself screened the submissions.
