I can't get your songs to stream/play.

Cross referencing the same listing - http://taxi.proboards27.com/index.cgi?b ... read=11938, I got the recording box under 'Not Master/Broadcast' checked.Can't access your track. I'd love to hear what you did with that listing in comparison to mine.

I have to admit, I was stymied by this listing too. I had 5 pieces returned - and 3 of those pieces had been forwarded for"UNIQUE, MODERN CLASSICAL/ORCHESTRAL INSTRUMENTALS in the wide range of Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, James Horner, John Cage, Hans Zimmer, Steve Reich, Thomas Newman, etc. are needed by an established Music Licensing company who provides content for major clients including Toyota, AOL, Google, Visa, Xbox, Adidas and more. You can see that the stylistic range is quite broad"even though they are electro-orchestral... and yet they were declined for this listing as "off target", for example...http://www.vikkiflawith.com/audio/VIKKI ... Blu-3.m3uI just kinda scratched my head and moved on. Maybe they weren't "elegant" enough

Hey alm,Got them to play.Really tough to guess what the screener was thinking, but since you asked... I would say some of your orchestral elements lack realism.That's the first think that pops into my head...and its JMO.Check out this thread of forwards for the listing...better luck next time. http://taxi.proboards27.com/index.cgi?b ... read=11954

Hi Alm,I just can't get access to your tracks unfortunately. I agree with your last comment to my post though. I took a listen to the link that RLD posted and agree 100% with the style of the tracks and therefore the reason for their forwards.I suppose it just comes down to my original question - putting the musical style to one side (beacuse the 'Recording' boxes were checked in my case), I was simply trying to understand why Taxi regarded the tracks as inferior recordings.
