First library deal leads to first 2 placements

Post by mkirbymusic » Sun Jun 26, 2022 1:22 pm

Waaaay back in November 2020, I was contacted by a library after a TAXI forward which lead to me signing 10 tracks in total with them. For the longest time I thought my tracks were dead in the water, never heard anything from the library despite contacting them twice.
Then all of a sudden I see them registered with my PRO in Sept. 2021, and finally see 4 of the tracks added to library's catalogue in May of this year, AND THEN after only a month of being in the catalogue I've had my first two placements on two different German TV shows

One was placed on an episode of Galileo, which I've been told is quite a big show in Germany, it also aired in Austria and Switzerland.
The other was placed on a show called Heimatjournal

While I didn't renew my membership this year.. I wanted to share the TAXI success story

Hi Michael,

Congrats on that! 2 placements for your first time must feel pretty good - definitely time to celebrate and maybe renew, rinse and repeat for more success haha ;)

Cheers for more good news down the line!
