New Taxi Member Saying Hello

Post by Lawrence » Sat Oct 29, 2016 2:18 pm

Hello Everyone,

My name is Lawrence and I just joined Taxi a few weeks ago. I've been creating music on & off for close to 20yrs now (started with Cakewalk 9, so many fond memories, lol) and I've decided to get back to making music professionally (my one true love) and take it to the next level. Some of my goals over the next year are to hone my songwriting skills, collaborate with other serious musicians, composers, songwriters, etc., & to get my music accepted into music libraries. I love all genres of music, but I currently specialize in Pop, R&B, & Hip-Hop with a goal of expanding into trailer music, TV show theme music, etc. I do have a day job as a Windows Engineer, however I want to eventually do music production full-time in the next 3 to 5 years. Also, if anyone is looking for a collaborator on Taxi listings that call for Urban Pop, R&B, or Hip Hop music please check out some of my previous work & let me know if you're interested. They are a few years old & I'll be updating my social network pages with newer material soon. I could bore you all with a few more paragraphs, but I'll spare you for now. :D

FYI - I'm attending my first Road Rally convention next week and am nervous, overwhelmed with the information I've read about it, & excited all at the same time. I look forward to meeting you folks there & making some great connections. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Hi Lawrence & welcome!

I didn't get to meet you at the Rally. Was it everything you hoped for?

I'm sure you were told to post your tracks on P2P. It's definitely the best way to get a feel for this kind of music making. I look forward to hearing your tracks.

Regards,
Mike
