Indie Folk Forward

I got this Indie Folk Cue through today! This is one I'm crossing my fingers for!


Dan





EMOTIONALLY UPLIFTING INDIE FOLK INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a hard-working Music Library with tons of credits in HIT TV Shows!

This awesome company is still fairly new to running Listings with TAXI, so chances are you don’t have any material in their catalog yet! They’re looking for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues that would fall in the general ballpark of the following references the Music Library provided to us:

“Ooh La La” by The Well Pennies

“New Colors” by Honoraries ft. Dan Read

Although the references have vocals, please submit instrumentals only for this pitch.

Give them well-composed Indie Folk Instrumental Cues that have all the positive appeal of the references above with uplifting melodies and acoustic-based instrumentation. Your production style can range from very simple tracks (just acoustic guitar, handclaps and foot stomps) to more fully produced tracks. Your submissions should feature a central melodic idea. Build momentum and forward movement by adding and subtracting different elements to create dynamics and interest as your Cues progress.

Your submissions should be 2 minutes long, give or take. Non-Faded, Stinger endings will work best for this pitch. Do NOT copy the referenced acts or songs in any way, shape, or form. Broadcast Quality is needed.

NOTE: This Library is NOT interested in composers that can only turn in 1 or 2 tracks every couple of months. They want composers that they can work closely with -- the kind that would be able to deliver an album’s worth of production music within 8-10 weeks of signing with the library!
