Three Forwards Today !

Post by tomaragon » Wed Mar 05, 2008 4:25 pm

One was for this listing…….080211NARelaxing, melodic NEW AGE INSTRUMENTALS along the general lines of Vangelis, Yanni, Blonker, Oliver Shanti, Andreas Vollenweider, etc. are wanted by an Austrian Production Co. for a new CD compilation to be released in Europe via a Major Label. This is the 8th CD in the series, and TAXI music has been included on 3 of the previous 7 compilations. He wants smooth, flowing, melodic music and mentioned "nothing too Jazzy, no solo piano or guitar only, no heavy drums and no loud effects." Their deal includes a 5 year non-exclusive license as well as mechanical royalties paid based on the number of CD units sold. Broadcast Quality needed [great-sounding home recording OK]. ShambhalaAnd two for this listing ……..S080208WOA range of great WORLD MUSIC INSTRUMENTALS (no vocals) are needed by a U.K.-based Music Library/Publishing Co. for TV placement. This company ran numerous TAXI listings in 2006 (and signed many TAXI songs) and is now in need of more great material, as their service has become very much in demand. Style-wise, they are open to any style that falls under "World Music." They don't want tracks that sound like they were obviously MIDI generated - authenticity and great performances are the keys. Both instrumentals with lead melody lines and basic backing tracks that serve as "soundbeds" are OK - they want both. All tempos are OK. Track length should be in the 1:00 - 3:00 range. At this point they work mostly with prominent U.K. TV channels such as the BBC and ITV, but also supply music to other production companies that broadcast worldwide. They offer non-exclusive, 50/50 deals.Until The EndOther World
