Direct to Supe Forward.

Post by eeoo » Fri Apr 11, 2014 4:36 pm

Got one through for this listing:

U140325AC

ALT COUNTRY/ROCK SONGS with Male vocals are needed by an A-List Hollywood Music Supervisor working on a Major Broadcast Network Hit TV Show. She’s searching for Down-To-Mid-Tempo Songs in the general stylistic wheelhouse of artists like Deer Tick, Drive-by Truckers, Glossary, etc. Please check out the following songs to hear the texture, tone, and vibe that could work for this pitch: “Twenty Miles” by Deer Tick: http://bit.ly/1iAmEbQ “Goddamn Lonely Love” by Drive-by Truckers: http://bit.ly/1l1jMHT “Ghost In The Vapor” by Glossary: http://spoti.fi/1cWHzWz Your Songs should be acoustic-based with subtle ambient electric guitar sounds. Give this Music Supervisor cool, laid-back, atmospheric songs that could easily play in the background of a scene. It’s important to have an authentic band or small ensemble feel that’s not too loud, aggressive, or overpowering. We wouldn’t want to overpower that dialogue, now would we?! Give them something that stylistically falls somewhere between Alt/Country and Alt/Rock (like the referenced songs above). You’ll be wise not to go too far in either direction. Aim for the middle. Your vocal performance should be strong, unique, and earnest. Introspective, soul-searching lyrics with a slightly bittersweet or melancholy vibe could work best. Please submit Songs with universal lyrics. Steer clear of references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, profanity, etc. Lyric themes with a slightly worn down or darker outlook on life, love, heartaches, relationships, etc., could work well for this show.

Here's the tune:

Excited when it goes direct to the supe, fingers crossed!
