examples of Action music for this listing?

Just wondered if anyone had a couple of good examples of what this listing is looking for.... sounds pretty high bar.A range of great-sounding ACTION 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 are now in need of more great material as their service has become very much in demand. In their own words: "We are seeking a variety of dramatic modern instrumentals with emphasis on energetic cinematic movement throughout the piece with a strong percussive edge. Any instrument emulations must be indistinguishable from the real thing. Stylish and slick production is essential; think movement within film trailers." 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. Broadcast quality needed [great sounding home recordings are OK]. Please submit one to three songs online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS ONLY - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI
