Evidently "NOT authentic enough per the listing request."

Eh ... It only paid $500 anyway
No worries,

Hello dear Peter,

Wenda said it right, it feels like being on a large Yacht somewhere on the coast line of Brazil, the waves moving gently in the evening, with the soft breeze and few cocktails. And interesting people around to chat with.

The Music has real quality in the context of a sumptuous soirée.

So just keep this Track "Last Evening" safe. It has value. Personally, I like it very much.

Why THANK you, Hector & Catherine!!

I really thought this one had potential, as I felt it met the listing requirements. Oh well ...
There's something about that chord progression I really like though. Variations of it have been widely used in many European instances.
A must to hold onto, for that special occasion ...

Heya Peter,

what listing was this for?

[PeterD]

Andy,

BOSSA NOVA INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Music Supervisor working on a Feature Film. Your tracks must be Down-to-Mid tempo, soft, sweet, and romantic. Think of an exotic, picturesque beach resort where love is in the air. The Music Supervisor is looking for ORIGINAL compositions only, please! NO covers of "The Girl From Ipanema" for this one, although that song certainly has the right vibe! She's NOT looking for a solo acoustic performance, so make sure your production has the full compliment of other instruments you'd typically hear on a Bossa Nova track. Quoting the Music Supervisor: "I'm looking for a song that's romantic, sultry, and can give an exotic flair. The music will play in the background of a romantic setting, where two characters are falling in love. There's lots of great chemistry and dialogue between them, so I can't have a track that's too upbeat or distracting." In other words, keep it pretty simple, and let the actors be the stars of the scene. Yep, they need "wallpaper," so give it to them and cash the check All tracks need to be at least two minutes long. The estimated license fee is $500 for Master and Sync, and all media, worldwide, (including in-context use in trailers/ads/promos). This is a Direct-to-Music Supervisor placement, so you'll keep 100% of the license fee, and you'll also keep all of your publishing and master rights. You must own 100% of your Master and Composition rights to submit for this opportunity. Broadcast Quality is needed (excellent home recordings are fine). All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis. No full critiques. Please submit 1-3 INSTRUMENTALS online or per CD, no later than Monday, June 24th, 2013, at 5pm (PDT). TAXI #D130625BN
