UPDATE:

I asked Taxi for a second opinion and they did provide one. The second screener mentioned things very similar to the comments posted by other Taxi Members in regards to mixing. So that is something I will turn my focus to.

If there is anyone in the LA area who can offer me a few hours of mixing tips at a reasonable rate I would love to meet with you.

The screener also pointed out something that I had not considered. I wrote the song before the listing came out and did not write to the listing specifically. There is a dissonance chord in the piece. This does violate the rules of Classical Music. So while the screener did not say this part, I would venture to think that even if everything would have been better mixed this dissonance would most likely have kicked it back by itself.

That kind of comment can only come from someone who really knows what the heck they are talking about. So my doubts have been erased and I have learned a good deal from this post and this listing. :geek:

You do not need feedback. You just need to submit the piece to another listing or to a music library directly.

You already have what it takes to succeed. Just keep working that song until it gets placed!

Thank you Desire!

It has been accepted to 3 libraries but I do agree that it could be better so I will soon make it better after my other projects are finished. :) And then, keep going going going. I have adopted the motto to submit and forget but feedback helps me improve.
