Apparently, the screener got to see the actual scene.
Perhaps that wasn't the arrangement at the time of the writing of the listing,
but I still feel... mislead. They asked for EXISTING songs with an apocalyptic vibe
within a stylistic ballpark, then respond with this comment for songs tailor-made
for the listing.

Cwadroon, I'd love to hear your track. Is it up anywhere I could hear it?

I agree. Mine could've been easily said to be stylistically off target because as usual i went kind of "out there" lol. But I'm curious if they even listened to it haha. I will post it up, one sec.

Cool vision, C!

You know, the more I think about it, maybe the music supervisor
screened the submissions themselves, so the only "forwards"
were the very few they would actually consider for the final cut. ???

Your track is great. I hope it finds a home.

Thanks for posting!

Anytime bro, hope I didn't hurt your ears.

I know I've heard it several times that "the screener don't know any more then you do" . I feel a little mislead myself, but meh. Submit, forget and next!

The one and only forward:

Forwards for TAXI # U160714BS
“Saving Grace” – Russell Clarke
Acoustic-based, Bluesy, R&B-ish Singer/Songwriter SONGS with a foreboding, “APOCALYPTIC” lyric theme are URGENTLY needed for a NON-Exclusive, $5,000-$10,000 Direct-to-Supervisor placement in a Hit TV show.

I found the song here : http://www.taximusic.com/hosting/home.p ... sellclarke

Congrats Russell!

Thanks for posting that Marcus!

Now I don't feel so bad. If there was "one and only forward," then the screener wasn't choosing
worthy candidates, but only the actual track to be used.

A terrific track, by the way, Russell. Congratulations!
