Edit point or not?

Post by garrettmiller » Sat Feb 08, 2025 10:18 am

Hello,

In reference to the listing below, would you add an edit point in this one? I feel like an edit point would kill the momentum and build for the duration of the track based on a "singular mood". Thoughts? Thank you.

Loads of "GUITARSCAPE" INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a prolific Music Licensing Company with International Distribution. The CEO is consistently working with high-profile Clients and is landing really
high-end placements, many times with considerable Sync Fees attached!

IMPORTANT NOTE: This Company is looking for tracks that feature real guitars only. Please DO NOT submit any material that contains VST guitar or guitar samples.

This company's CEO is looking for quite a few Instrumentals in the general stylistic ballpark of the examples below:

"Dramamine" by Flawed Mangoes

"Dark Sky City" by Amparo

"The Only One" by Random Forest

Please submit well-crafted Guitarscape Instrumentals with layered guitars and lots of creative processing! This CEO is looking for tracks that convey a singular mood and create a captivating
soundscape with effects such as delays, reverbs, looping, modulation, etc. Your tracks should have killer guitar tones, excellent performances, flowing arrangements, and lots of musicality integrated into the effects and processing. (In other words, don't overdo it!) Instrumentation should feature guitar (acoustic or electric) and can also include some light additional instrumentation (synth pads, percussion, very light drums).
Please ensure that any virtual instruments or samples you use for the additional instrumentation are high-quality and not dated-sounding.

NOTE: We don't think this CEO is looking for anything overly atmospheric, washy, or lacking in movement. Please avoid submitting anything that's overly ambient or ethereal,
and use the references to help you get a good idea of the type of production and overall vibe that will work for them!

Your submissions should be roughly 2 minutes long, give or take. Buttoned endings with a natural fadeout will work best. Do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form.
Use it only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

AI ALERT: This company does not accept or sign music that has been melodically composed using generative AI, nor does it accept backing tracks or full instrumental tracks created with AI.

This Company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal, so the material you submit for this request CANNOT be signed with other publishers or catalogs. Sync fees will be split 50/50.
The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll keep 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this opportunity,
and you need to be affiliated with a Performing Rights Organization for this company to include your music in their catalog. Please submit as many Instrumentals as you’d like, online or per CD.
Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Sunday, February 23rd, 2025. TAXI # S250223CP

Yes at least two. It's only a 2 minute cue so one right at the start maybe after a bar or two and one around the 1 minute mark. It will also help you with the alt preps later if it gets signed.


Good luck!!
