This must be some kind of record.

Hi All,

I know when we get forwarded we usually have to wait awhile before we hear back (if at all). But on this forward it was within hours. No kidding. I found out that two of my tracks had been forwarded in the morning and by early afternoon I received a call from the Music Library/Publisher offering a deal on both tracks. Not that I mind waiting but it is quite nice when the turnaround is this fast. :D

Here are the tracks:

From the first notes of "Saul's Folley", I could tell why this song was forwarded, and signed so quickly. Holy crap, man! That's how epic orchestral is done! Nice work, and huge congratulations! Keep churning out this kind of stuff and your future in music will be assured. Heck, you might even get a call from a movie studio with this caliber of stuff in your portfolio.

Hey guys, thanks big time for your comments. Really appreciate it.

Oh and to answer Andy's question on the strings, I use LASS and double that with Symphobia mixed in behind it on that track.
