 Re: How Long it Takes Before a Deal -- Tell Your Stories Here!
A couple weeks ago I got a call from a music library. He told me he was going through some of his old Taxi submissions and ran across a tune of mine (Rim Ram). I hardly recognized the name (sometimes I change the name of a song just for a paticular submission). I called him up and asked if I could listen to the track, which I recognized. I looked through my old CD backups of tracks and finally located it under "60's Song". I sent him a good copy (had to remix it). I looked at the date of the session. I couldn't believe it, it was from 2003!  It must be some kind of record! I wished he would've called me years ago, but at least he called and I'm working with him now. Thanks Taxi Kevin

!5 submissions and 2 forwards so far. About half of my early submissions were sent to either incorrect postings ( not reading style, info etc.. ) or not researching into what an ad requirement is. ( arrangement, mix etc.. ) Newbie mistakes Needless to say, I'm learning and I can't wait to start signing some deals. Rich.

I've had 9 forwards now since August. No call backs yet. That's ok ( sort of  ) I just keep on writing and recording. It's what I do

 Re: How Long it Takes Before a Deal -- Tell Your Stories Here!
After lot's of returns, quite a few forwards and 5 publishing deals i got my first placement. Along the Journey is many mountains, rivers and valleys. Each one of those has it's ups and downs. The Mts are hard to climb but have the best views. The valleys are a great place to rest and revaluate and the rivers are like springs of life but can distract and sweep you away. I believe that i am on a life long journey, doing the very thing that i love, it's one of the reasons that makes me jump out of bed each morning. It has been 2 years with Taxi and i am looking forward to many more. Thanks guys for your feedback, information and Michael Laskow for the drive to help each one of us succeed. 2012 gonna be big........ steve

 Re: How Long it Takes Before a Deal -- Tell Your Stories Here!
We were in Taxi from 2004 to sometime in 2007 and had one forward. We had just submitted songs to a small library and that library was the same one Taxi forwarded us to just after we'd signed a deal. But credit is due to Taxi anyway because they called it right. We left Taxi shortly after that. We've been with that library since 07 and have had somewhere around 20 to 25 song placements on TV shows through them. We came back to Taxi in November 2011. We've had 5 forwards so far. It will take however long it takes for the deals to come. We're focusing on more music and more submissions.
