HIGH SUSPENSE INSTRUMENTALS

Post by bmete » Wed Aug 06, 2008 3:33 pm

Yahoo!!! Just opened the e-mail that my tune "Night Shades" was forwarded for this listing:HIGH SUSPENSE INSTRUMENTALS are needed by an East Coast Music Publisher who has secured dozens of Film/TV placements for TAXI writers over the years. He's looking for a wide variety of styles, but the mood does need to be filled with suspense and edge. He'll be looking for shifts in tone, instrumentation and dynamics throughout each piece. He's open to any arrangement or instrumentation, as long as the tone is right. Excellent performances are absolutely necessary.

Man, I really loved how you worked the strings on this one! Congrats! I got a 3/3 returned. Not easy to know what they are looking for sometimes.

Seriously, this is a VERY good piece especially with respect to the listing. Based on the few other tracks of yours I've listened to, it sounds like a completely different composer (that's supposed to be a compliment). Dave
