Placement in a Christmas Movie
I got word tonight that an instrumental I co-wrote with Allen DeSomer quite a few years back got placed in "My Christmas Fiance" (Hulu).
While this library contact was not through Taxi, everything else about this track was due to Taxi. I met Allen at a rally, way back around 2007-8 time frame. I found out he was an incredible guitar player and could do Spanish style (and anything else!). I was sitting on this instrumental idea (it started as a song but I couldn't think of any lyrics), and approached him to collab and record the instrumental. We ended up putting it in a a few non-exclusive libraries.
I probably signed it to the library that made the placement around 12 years ago and forgot all about it.
Just saw it on Hulu and it played for around 1.5 minutes. The sync fee was very small but hopefully we'll make a few bucks on the back end.
It pays to get to know folks at the rally. Your future collaborators.

Re: Placement in a Christmas Movie
Track sounds great!
Sounds like Christmas to me! (Getting the placement part lol)
ps. So that's what "Disco" looks like. Heard about it at Rally.

Re: Placement in a Christmas Movie
Awesome news, Casey and Allen - and a great testimonial to the meet-up value of the TAXI Road Rally.

Re: Placement in a Christmas Movie
That's the amazing Allen DeSomer. Highly recommend if you need a fantastic guitar played for collab or WFH.
As they say, it's a marathon, not a sprint. Things more pretty slowly in this business.
Best,
Casey
