GOIN' FOR THE SPORTS INSTRUMENTAL!!

Post by ibanez468 » Mon Oct 20, 2008 5:23 pm

Hey all!Thought I'd try my hand at the Sports Instrumental. I kinda' think I understand the vibe there, so, we'll give it a shot. SPORTS INSTRUMENTALS that range from NFL, NBA, Fox Sports, ESPN, etc. theme songs to Extreme Sports/X-Games tracks are needed by a Production Music Library. For this one, you can submit material in a wide range of approaches but the energy level must be high and the adrenaline behind the music must be current-sounding, compelling & marketable. This company needs a wide variety of material that could be appropriate for a Major Network Sports special, as well as material that could rise to the energy of the edgy/adrenaline-pumping X-Games. Everything from high-energy/cutting edge Orchestral/Rock blends to Pop/Punk to Hard Rock to Electronica could work. For this listing, the overall tone and the level of the performance/production are the key factors. The energy must be high! This is a Broadcast Quality listing (great home recordings should be fine). Please submit one to three instrumentals online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI and must be received by October 20, 2008. TAXI # S081020TVBy Physical ForceI-468

Dang you can make that axe sing! I think the second half with the guitar solo does it best for me...and the bass is great throughout.Good luck my good man!

Aren't the 'good things that come to those who wait' just the leftovers from the people that got there first?

Just gotta find the right listing for it. It's failed a few times, so gotta be careful with it. The short version (30 secs) of it has been forwarded once before, but this longer version hasn't hit the mark yet.http://taximusic.com/stream/78352/Callo ... 3.mp3I-468
