Classic Rock Lullabies

Post by crs7string » Sun Mar 02, 2008 2:26 pm

I've put together this track for the classic rock lullaby Dispatch listing:http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... tream=1New Listing INSTRUMENTAL LULLABY SONGS covering major Contemporary and Classic Rock Artists/Bands such as Radiohead, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, etc. are sought after by a well-established Independent Label as part of a successful series of releases. Prior releases from this company have sold in excess of 1.5 million worldwide. They’re looking for instrumental lullaby arrangements of popular songs from major Rock acts(both current and classic), with a mix of percussive instrumentation (xylophone, vibraphone “kiddy” percussion, samples, keyboards & effects, children’s toys, etc.) The arrangements can be very quirky and cute, but need to retain the melodic sense of the originals to appeal to the fans. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD. You will be notified by email regarding the status of your submission, either Returned or Forwarded. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than Mar. 5, 2008. TAXI #D080305HAHope you like it and recognize the tune.Chuck

Very cool. Seems perfect for the listing to me. The synth movement has a really cool haunting quality. And the vibes bring out the lullaby quality perfectly. Very nice.Timmer

I saw the congregation singing "In The Garden Of Eden" in church on the Simpsons once. Bart replaced the music in the hymnal with the full version of this. I have to believe that this is like Mary Poppins... practically perfect in every way.

Hey Chuck,Classic classic rock. I noticed you sub-titled the piece "Time to Hide Under the Covers" Yea, it has a definite creepy element to it. I wondered if the lead line as played on the synth should be played on a childs instrument like a xylophone or something. And then gradually build the lead melody line up by having some counterpoint played on another kids instrument. I don't know just a thought I guess.Your actual title reminds me of a very old Simpsons episode where Bart replaced Reverent Lovejoy's hymals with the sheet music to the Iron Buttefly song. and the Reverent's exclamation that "there will be no rock and or roll played here." Anyway, I digress. Good stuff Chuck. Hope this gets a forward.Derek
