I just wanted to point out that this a la video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRmXHKVxzkw Is NOT by Israel Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole; it's a cover of Israel by the forum's own AKMusic.LIGHT, BREEZY HAWAIIAN INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a NON-Exclusive Boutique Music Library that’s feeding music directly to a new, Travel-based Reality TV Show that’s about to begin post production. They’re on the hunt for organic, well-played, Down-to-Mid-Tempo Instrumental Cues that could be found on the same playlist as acts like Cyril Pahinui, Israel Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole, Ledward Kaapana, etc., etc., etc.

Although one of the references has vocals in it, please submit Instrumentals only for this pitch. Give them original, emotionally uplifting Cues with a true Hawaiian spirit, and well-played acoustic-based instrumentation that’s typically heard in this genre – ukulele, slack key guitar, lap steel, etc. They’re open to both solo instruments and/or small ensemble Instrumental Cues.
If you submit a small ensemble Cue, you’d be smart to add and subtract additional instruments as your Cue progresses to keep it dynamically interesting from beginning to end. Submissions should be at least 2 minutes long, with Easy Edit Points and Non-Faded/Buttoned Endings with a natural decay/ring out are recommended. Short to no intro, and a simple, compelling melodic motif from top to bottom will put smiles on the faces of the editors and the music library alike! Do NOT copy or rip off the referenced acts or songs in any way, shape, or form. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine).
This company offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 split. You'll get 100% of the Writer's share. The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this pitch. Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). Please submit one to three Instrumental Cues online or per CD no later than 11:59 (PST), on Thursday, November 19th, 2015. TAXI #U151119HC
Congrats, AK, you've finally made it to the big leagues!
