CHINESE INSTRUMENTALS (Traditional and/or Contemporary) are needed by a very successful Music Library with a really long track record of placements in Network TV, Cable TV, Films, and Commercials. Please submit Instrumentals in All-Tempos, Styles, Genres, and Moods, that are either distinctly Chinese, or have a Chinese influence. Please review the following references to get a general idea of the sound that could work for this pitch: Beautiful Relaxing Traditional Chinese & Instrumental Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whVxAlCgNIs "Oogway Ascends" by Hanz Zimmer and John Powell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdjnonJ ... 6&index=39 Chinese Festival Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5B4e79bmCs Quoting the source: “We’re pretty much open to ALL forms of Chinese music, either traditional or contemporary. Mood, style, and instrumentation can range from a solo instrumental artist to a big full ensemble and anything in between.” The quote from the Library pretty much says it all! “Mood, style, and instrumentation can range from a solo instrumental to a big full ensemble and anything in between.” All submissions should be at least 2 minutes in length, with easy 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. Please avoid sending them Tracks that sound stiff and obviously MIDI-generated. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). Think of all the types of scenes that need Chinese Instrumentals: restaurant scenes, Chinese New Year celebration scenes, spy flick scenes, TONS of travel show scenes, etc., etc. BTW, this company was REALLY happy with a large batch of Instrumentals we recently sent them, and they signed a big chunk of the TAXI forwards! Yay, TAXI members!! This Library offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. Upfront sync fees will be negotiated on a Track-by-Track basis directly with Music Library. The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed with any other Libraries or Catalogs. Please submit one to three Instrumentals online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PDT) on Tuesday, June 16th 2015. TAXI #U150616CH

Thanks Diane. Fujian Sunrise was forwarded a year or so ago so figured it might make the cut.

Great tracks Dad! (Fuji is in Japan, btw) I got two forwards for this as well, honored to be in the same group as you!

Actually....

Fujian is a southeastern Chinese province known for its mountains and coastal cities. In Xiamen, a port town and former foreign concession, the island of Gulangyu has pedestrianized streets and 19th-century colonial villas. Fuzhou, the provincial capital, is a transportation hub for destinations such as Quanzhou. Once visited by Marco Polo, Quanzhou offers temples, an old-town district and Maritime Museum.

Thanks!

Touche! I thought you meant Fujian as is Fuji-an. Or Fuji-ish.

Dadgummit... from the title of this post, I thought maybe the Lakers were bringing in some twin-towers from Bejing...
to guard the paint!!

Paulie.. "Fuji-ish" sounds like something you order at the Sushi Bar.

I'm so broke I can hardly pay attention any more...
