Well it's about time you started getting forwards even with high bars. You're stuff rocks, on a very consistent level bro.

My songwriting and mixes have definitely improved thanks to working with and getting feedback from other TAXI folks (reviewers and forum folks), so I wanted to say thanks. Wow! Congrats! This was probably no easy one to get forwarded for!! Casey
I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER!

Re: One forward I'm really happy about
I also submitted for this one -- actually two pairs of tracks in two separate submissions, cos the listing seemed to fit what I do quite well. The two submissions ended up with different screeners, and what surprised me was how different the different critiques were. One of them (for 'Alright' and 'Better') gave me all fives and sixes (my lowest scores to date I think) and said that they weren't commercial in any way, while the other screener (for 'Dorothy' and 'Angelsaint') gave me all eights and nines and forwarded both tracks. Just goes to show how subjective it all is. Maybe I'm just too close to these songs to be objective about them, but they all seem roughly as good/bad as each other to me. They're all on my Taxi hosting if anyone else is interested.

SongwriterI'm delighted you got this listing! - I had been targeting this for a while and didn't get any of 3 brand new tracks through. Bummed! For me - back to life, back to reality. For you - I really am delighted. You write great stuff. And your prolificity reminds us that repeated action leads to inspiration. Inspiration in itself rarely leads to action. Liam

As hard as you work, and as creative and talented as you are, it was only a matter of time. Get used to it. I think you'll be passing the high bar more and more. Congrats.Aub
