2000's to Mid-'10's-Style EDM INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by an EXCLUSIVE Music Library that's connected with many TV Production Companies and Showrunners!

This Library is looking for a bunch of Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references we got directly from them:

"I Remember" by deadma5 & Kaskade

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlHTsCx913c

"Love Comes Again" by Tiësto & BT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMTZu8Yeqng

"Summer" by Calvin Harris

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McEoTIqoRKk

Although some of the references have vocals, please submit Instrumental Cues for this pitch. Some non-lyrical vocal samples are okay to include.

Please send well-produced EDM Instrumental Cues that could've felt at home blaring in a club in the 2000s or early 2010s. Your submissions should have danceable rhythms and era-appropriate Electronic instrumentation that's in the general ballpark of the references and their contemporaries. Craft your Cues around one motif and mood, and layer instrumentation in and out as they progress to create a sense of forward momentum and dynamics. Be sure that your production and all virtual instruments or samples you use are polished and high-quality.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT submit any tracks with spoken producer tags/watermarks as they're not usable for film and TV placements.

All submissions should be at least 90 seconds long, and can run up to 2 minutes (a little bit longer is fine). Well-crafted, buttoned/stinger endings are required – do NOT submit anything with faded endings. Do NOT copy the referenced tracks in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. You’ll split all upfront sync fees 50/50. You’ll keep 100% of the Writer’s share and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is not already signed with other Libraries or Catalogs. Please submit as many 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 Thursday, October 7th, 2021. TAXI # S211007ED

I'm not getting that at all from it - the whole thing sounds very 80s to me..the sounds, the drums , the melodic patterns

Do you have a way to reference other songs ON your DAW? I use a plugin called Metric AB from ADPTR AUDIO. Really helped me dial in my levels. I had a habit of making my kick too loud in relation to the other instruments because I had low frequency cancelation issues in my room. Referencing is a must my friend
