80s INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS

Post by jazzstan » Sat Oct 04, 2008 8:31 am

80s INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS FOR POPULAR CABLE REALITY TV SHOW ... moving into its fifth season. They’ll be open to styles ranging from New Wave to Hard Rock, Old School Hip Hop to Dance/Electronica. Broadcast Quality and the performances need to be excellent and on target stylistically. So here's what I'm considering submitting.http://www.capizon.com/music/Garignak-RockMonster.mp31) Do you think this is on target (since it says "all styles")?2) Is it Broadcast Quality? 3) Performance chops up to par?4) Comments on mix, balance, etc...??5) Any other feedback, comments, suggestions? (more cowbell? -- ) (I've modified this post ...in #1 to say "all styles" rather than "hard rock")PS... "Garignak" was the 'Rock Monster' CGI charachter in the Tim Allen movie Galaxy Quest.

I think some cowbell would be nice Despite the distortion I don't think it's hard rock but it seems they have a broad range so you're cool....Sounds good to me....Nice playing... I get a blues rock vibe... which I likey!!It's got a good vibe for playing behind a contest or something....Good Luck!!Geo

I'd certainly spend $5 of your money on this one Stan (although I'm only batting a 10% forward ratio, so cover your bets accordingly )The ending seemed a bit "cut & pasted", (probably so it could come in under 3 minutes...my guess is the music goes on for a few more minutes..hours?). I'm not sure this ending would be a show stopper though...there's lots of that excellent progression for them to use before that point. The dispatch listing didn't give a max time limit, if this is the one you're targetting.I've heard that dispatch listings have a higher forward ratio than the longer listings too...I wish I knew for sure...please keep us posted if you land it!

I like the vibe, Stan. There surely is a listing for this, but you don't want me to find it. I always seem to miss the mark. Nice work. Wig
