2 Recent Forwards..Irish music and America The Beautiful

Post by mainman » Wed Apr 10, 2019 4:19 pm

Hello all,
Been very miss and miss on my recent submissions (which have been much less over the past year), but I recently had 4 forwards in a row!
Here are two of them....

Thanks for listening!

-Chris

ORIGINAL IRISH and CELTIC INSTRUMENTALS and/or CUES are needed by a hot U.K.-based Music Library that’s been signing a lot of TAXI members to keep up with growth caused by increasing demand. They’re eager to find Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references:

"Coalminer's Set" by The O'Neill Brothers Group

“The Farmer's Frolic” by Gaelic Storm

Please submit well-crafted Instrumentals and/or Instrumental Cues that are quick to establish location, like something you’d hear in a documentary or a travel show. In other words, as soon as the music plays, you're transported to Ireland. They’re open to hearing all sorts of Irish music: from Traditional Celtic Folk Instrumentals to more Contemporary Irish styles.

Your instrumentation can include pipes, bodhran, fiddles, and whistles, etc. – the more realistic-sounding, the better. If you’re using samples or Virtual Instruments to create your Cues, please be careful to avoid anything that sounds synthetic and/or obviously MIDI-driven. Overdubbing a real instrument on top of your samples could be a great way to make your material sound more authentic!

NOTE: They are happy to hear full-length Instrumentals as well as shorter Cue-style instrumentals. Non-Faded, Buttoned/Stinger endings will work best for this request. Do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Broadcast Quality is needed.

Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Wednesday, March 13th, 2019. TAXI #Y190313OC



INSTRUMENTAL RENDITIONS OF “America The Beautiful” are needed by a successful, high-quality, Production Music Library that pays a nice upfront fee to composers!
They’re specifically looking for renditions done in ONLY one of the three following styles:
1. Orchestral with Brass.
2. Military Brass and Drums.
3. Fife and Drums.
Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Wednesday, March 27, 2019. TAXI #Y190327AB
