How long does it take to recieve a review?

Post by fiftyfifty » Wed Jun 06, 2007 5:07 am

My band is brand new to TAXI, heck we are a newly formed band, but each of us has been playing in different circuts for a long time. My question is how long does it take (normaly) for a submission to be reviewed? We have been around the music scene for a while and understand that not everything is a hit song, but we would like to know what the "Pro's" think of our music. We met in Iraq and wrote these first three songs explaining our emotional and relational difficulties while there. We have played them at live shows for the last 3 months and have been met with rave reviews and requests (to play them again). This is in Frankfurt Germany, so we understand that what might be popular or catchy here may not be in the states. Thanks for the assistanceMike and Matt (-50/50-)

Quote:My question is how long does it take (normaly) for a submission to be reviewed? For critiqued listings, I generally think in terms of four to six weeks. If it's sooner, great but if not, I'm not anxious or disappointed. My first critique... couldn't wait for it to arrive, then when it finally did I didn't want to look at it.

Mike, and Matt, I have to guess that your crowds are mainly military? i have found that what flies with the military crowd isn't always what is considerable in civillian society. I am in Iraq at the moment, and all my "military music" goes through a tight scrutiny through a tight collection of people who are the worst pessimists around. they don't care what paepole think about their opinions, and it helps me more than anything. (i just wish i could have unwrote my most famous co-write "hadji girl") it has severly affected my ability to play music over here. more to the point, four to six weeks in the states, add a little time for it to fly up to Germany. I wish you luck.-steve

I talked to Taxi personally about this and they say a critique usually takes anywhere between 2-4 weeks. I submitted a song toward the end of June and just my first review back.

I had submitted for a custom critique and it took about 3 1/2 weeks but was well worth the nail-biting.
