feedback on mix/composition? due today midnight

Post by hummingbird » Wed Jun 22, 2016 2:27 pm

Thanks in advance for feedback on mix/composition - H

Track:
https://soundcloud.com/hummingbird-26/d ... er/s-LAWJf

Listing:
New Listing RHYTHMICALLY INTENSE, PERCUSSION-BASED ORCHESTRAL INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a busy an extremely active, Non-Exclusive Music Library that’s currently building multiple new Instrumental Catalogs. Please submit high-impact, Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues that are in the general stylistic ballpark of these references:

Batman V Superman Tribute Percussive Score: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn2vUG4OlV8

Epic Music Mix – Drums and Percussion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpIhbDN58mA

Surger (Driving Percussive Action):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w44zCvs1Mbo

Panic Exit (Massive Drum Action):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9ZYMBQf6x4

Please submit powerful, rhythmically engaging Instrumental Cues that get the heart racing and the adrenaline pumping. They’re open to hearing different approaches to pieces with Orchestral instrumentation and/or various hybrid elements, as long as they maintain an epic and intense quality. Your pieces should build and layer on top of a central, captivating melodic motif, while keeping the energy moving with rhythmically extreme percussive instrumentation and elements.

All submissions should be at least 2 minutes in length. Buttoned/Stinger Endings and Easy Edit Points are strongly encouraged for this pitch. 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).

This Library offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 split. You’ll keep 50% of any applicable sync fees and 100% of the Writer’s share. The Publisher will get 50% of the sync fee and 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Please submit one to three Instrumentals online or per CD no later than 11:59PM (PDT), on Wednesday, June 22nd, 2016. TAXI #U160622PO

Vikki, think it fits the listing. It's intense and very unique sounding which could help it to stand out of the crowd.

HI Vikki,

Problem for me is the listing. It asks for percussion-heavy cues,
but the a las seem nearly pure percussion. If it were my track,
I'd bring up the drums and let the orchestral score lay beneath them.

I'm not saying that's great advice, but that's what I'd do.

Best of luck and good work!
