Yay, my first forward. I'm a new member and I'm very excited to be part of the community.

DARK CINEMATIC INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a very busy Music Library that gets a lot of placements in TV, Film, and Commercials. They’re on the hunt for Instrumentals in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references: Sea Wall by Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa_kpnV4Eg8 Star Wars Jedi Temple March by John Williams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFOo86PDDuE No Courage Without Fear by Christophe Beck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7xXe-qlQjY “Watch The World Burn” – The Dark Knight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NdV7-rOt2Y TAXI Tip: The references above were likely scored to picture and go through different moods and tempos. For this pitch, it’s best to stick to a singular mood and tempo throughout your entire piece to keep the mood singular and cohesive from beginning to end. Give them well-crafted Instrumentals that use Orchestral or Orchestral-hybrid instrumentation to create a dark, moody vibe and sound. Builds and climaxes can help give your Instrumental a sense of forward movement and anticipation, but be careful not to make your piece too complicated! Be sure your instrumentation sounds very realistic and not stiff or obviously quantized or MIDI-driven. Your submissions should be at least 2 minutes long. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings are needed for this pitch. TAXI #Y180429DC
Best regards,
Michael

Nice job Michael. Nice textures. Feels good to get to join the forward march. Don't stop. As they say, write - submit - forget - re-write.
