More old rock'n'roll from me!
Is this stylistically better and all that and any comments appreciated ... even the wrong ones!
My take:

TAXI wrote: 1950s-Style CLASSIC ROCK SONGS with Male Vocals are needed
for a few $4,500, NON-Exclusive, Direct-to-Music Supervisor placements
in an Action Adventure Fantasy TV Series.</strong> This Music Supervisor needs original, Guitar-Driven, Mid-to-Up-Tempo Songs that would fit on a playlist with these references, <em>which</em> <em>the Music Supervisor gave us:
Johnny B. Goode” by Chuck Berry
“Jailhouse Rock” by Elvis Presley
"Twenty Flight Rock" by Eddie Cochran
Over the course of the next few days you will see quite a few requests from this Music Supervisor as he is working on a series that uses Guitar-based music to represent different eras in music history. This series will need a LOT of different kinds of guitar music, and the Music Supervisor will be using TAXI as one of his primary sources to find that music!
Please send them original, guitar-driven Rock songs that have an authentic 1950s sound. Your submissions should have well-performed, authentic-sounding Rock band instrumentation with a compelling vocal performance that authentically fits with the ‘50s delivery and style of the references.
TAXI Tip:</strong> Your submissions can be actual vintage masters recorded in the 1950s, or they can be songs recently recorded
and just inspired by that era.
Quoting the Music Supervisor: “I need uplifting songs with plenty of dynamics and Infectious Riffs! Great catchy rhythms with deep pocket energy and drive. These tracks need to feel and sound like the real deal.”
Lyrics that are appropriate to the era and genre are preferred. Please don’t mention specific names, places, dates, times, brands, or profanity. Do NOT copy the referenced artists in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a guide for tempo, texture, and tone. <strong>Era-Appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed. In other words, if you're submitting music that's ostensibly from the '50s, it should sound sonically like it's from the '50s -- not 2019
The estimated license fee for each of these placements is $4,500, depending on the ultimate placement. These will be Direct-to-Music Supervisor placements, so you’ll keep 100% ownership of your Master and Composition rights, plus you’ll also get 100% of the sync fee and any applicable performance royalties. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD; please include Lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Time permitting, the Music Supervisor himself might be able to screen submissions for this request! Submissions must be received <strong>no later than 11:59PM (PDT) on Monday, April 22nd, 2019. TAXI #Y190422FT
