2 Forwards >> INVESTIGATIVE TENSION INSTRUMENTALS

Post by steveprobst » Wed Aug 12, 2020 10:42 am




Lots of INVESTIGATIVE TENSION INSTRUMENTALS and/or INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a BRAND NEW Music Library that's being started by a successful Editor for Major TV shows!

They need a bunch of Investigative Tension Instrumentals and/or Cues in a variety of tempos and styles. Please listen to the references below to get a general idea of what they need:

"Crime Scene" by Thomas Ferriere

Police Investigation Underscore Music

"The Crime Scene" by Kaae & Batz

Please send well-composed Instrumentals (and/or Cues) that could enhance the investigative tone found in Crime-related TV Shows and Films! Stick to a singular motif and mood throughout, so your pieces are cohesive from top to bottom. Your Instrumentals (and/or Cues) can be composed around Electronic and/or Orchestral Instrumentation. Keep your submissions on the simple side and remember that this is all about setting a mood!

TAXI Tip: This new catalog is being built from the ground up, so the company will need a LOT of pieces in this style. If you can picture your Instrumentals (and/or Cue) working in Investigative Crime shows like: CSI, NCIS, or Criminal Minds, send them in!

All submissions should be about 2 to 4 minutes long for Instrumentals and roughly 90 seconds to 2 minutes for Cues, give or take. Non-Faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, texture, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 deal. They’ll get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll keep 100% of the Writer’s share. This is a gratis library where the artist and publisher are paid through PRO’s only – Not unusual...actually, very common these days, especially for Reality TV Shows. You must own or control your Master and Copyright. Please submit as many Instrumentals and/or Instrumental Cues as you'd like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Tuesday, June 30th, 2020. TAXI Dispatch #D200630NV
