Harmonica Octane forward!

Post by jeffgreenleaf » Mon Feb 25, 2008 7:56 pm

My song "Pure Octane" was forwarded to this killer listing. Check out some crazy harmonica playing. I had a great time with this listing.http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... &stream=1A range of great "HIGH OCTANE" INSTRUMENTALS (no vocals) are needed by a U.K.-based Music Library/Publishing Co. for TV placement. This company ran numerous TAXI listings in 2006 (and signed many TAXI songs) and is now in need of more great material as their service has become very much in demand. Think high-energy tracks for sports highlights or car chase scenes - footage like that. Rock and Electronica-style tracks are preferred, but all instrumentation is OK, just so it's uptempo, energetic, and throat-grabbing. They don't want tracks that sound like they were obviously MIDI generated - authenticity and great performances are the keys. ...And congrats to everyone who was forwarded on this bad boy!

Nice work Jeff. That harp had a little of the "When the Levee Breaks" vibe, but with a contemporary track mix. Hope you get a placement on this one!
