We'll see. You have to keep in mind that TAXI isn't like a management company or anything...they just provide an opportunity to be heard by the right people and to get better at writing music. If there aren't many TAXI success stories in a particular genre, it's likely that there are fewer members who specialize in that genre. The genre that you said you are most interested in is the same genre that I do best, and there are definitely some great opportunities . Not too long ago there were a couple of listings where the actual producer of a major label artist came in and screened the submissions himself. Can't get a better opportunity than that -Steve

Thank you, sounds promising Hopefully that wasn't a one time event.And speaking of management, any ideas on high class song-pitching managers/managements are also appreciated...although this might not be the right thread for it, apologies in that case.

I think if you are good enough, the chances will increase with Taxi! If you want to be a composer and not an artist, but if you are an artist you can increase you chances with Taxi as well. I don't know any other way. The one thing I do know is that you have to work hard to succeed. I'm working on some songs that hopefully will be forwarded in the future in the pop/r'n'b genre.
