Dispatch forward

Post by zircon » Fri Feb 23, 2007 8:23 am

One of my tracks (out of three) got sent to # D070220EL.Quote:ELECTRONICA SONGS & INSTRUMENTALS in ALL STYLES [Trip Hop, Funky Breaks, Drum N Bass, Techno, House, etc.] are once again needed by a new LA-based Music Library headed by veterans of that industry. They’ve been consistently signing TAXI members since mid-2006 and have already had numerous high-profile placements with TAXI songs (TV shows on NBC & ABC as well as 2 major films set for release this year). Great vocals and instrumental performances are essential - this company is very selective in what & who they sign. Male or female vocals are OK. No lyrical restrictions - all themes are OK. No need to submit the same material forwarded for Y061204EL. They offer a non-exclusive, 50/50 split deal - you keep your original copyrights. Broadcast quality needed (great-sounding home recordings are OK). Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS ONLY - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI. For ground submissions, please enclose a S.A.S.E. if you would like a response. As always, we will notify everyone via e-mail, whether your submissions have been Forwarded or Returned. Submissions must be received no later than 4:00 PM, Pacific Standard Time (California time), Tuesday, Feb. 20, 2007. TAXI # D070220ELDispatch certainly seems to be a potentially worthwhile investment, as I've gotten quite a few forwards so far, though no deals yet...

Thanks Martin - btw the song that got forwarded was "Mindbender".http://www.broadjam.com/artists/artisti ... 17976Oddly enough "Warhead" did not get forwarded which I think is a better track...

Great sound zircon. I like the sound of the filter on some of your patches. Are you using a Nord synth? I'm sure you have a bunch of gear but there's a particular sound near the beginning that really grabbed me.Keep up the good work! John

Most of the leads for this were my own patches in impOSCar, a $99 VST synth with the most brutal filter ever. I don't use any hardware.

Thanks for the reply. Good sounds. I'll check out imposcar, I have heard of it. I'm slowly going soft myself but still have a fair amount of hard synths laying around that get used often.Take care. John
