A nail-biting wait leads to a nail-biting forward

Post by VanderBoegh » Wed Apr 09, 2014 4:08 pm

This one took a long time to come through - 6 weeks on the nose - but I guess good things come to those who wait?!?! (well, not so much with my ska song that got returned today after a nearly identical wait-time. Drat!). Nonetheless, I was pleased that my track "The Tension Builds" - near the bottom of my Taxi page - got forwarded today after patiently waiting and chronically checking my email for the past few weeks, haha. I guess Taxi wanted to build their own sense of tension to accompany this one! Congrats to the rest of you who also made it through. Let's hope some phones start ringing!

For this listing:
REALITY TV-STYLE UNDERSCORE INSTRUMENTALS that you'd hear during the tension-filled catfights on shows like Vanderpump Rules, Real Housewives, Blood Sweat and Heels, etc., are needed by a High Quality Music Licensing Company pitching to Reality TV placements. This is one of their very first listings with TAXI, and chances are you don't have anything in their catalogue yet. They're hunting for Instrumentals that have a someone's-about-to-take-their-stiletto-off kind of vibe! Your submissions need to have dramatic builds that lead into epic percussive elements delivering a sonic bed of uneasy anticipation.

Thanks guys! But actually it's a different song than the couple I posted in P2P a few days ago. This particular cue is one I put together about a year and a half ago. But the production elements are pretty similar... whole lotta orchestral stabs & swells. Guess I'm kinda a one-trick tension pony!

"Pro" is a LOOOOOONG way from accurate! But I sure appreciate the compliment, Peter. And thanks to the rest of you all for the congratulations, Scott, Russell, Catherine, and FM.
