Wondering if no matter how much of an amazing musician/producer you are, the chances are still slim because of the amount being submitted each time?
It's not about being the most amazing. Be good but be consistent and stick at it ...you will outlast the 'amazing' people who can't stick with it long term.

Your track sounds well produced but there's not enough development, try to add new elements every 4 bars ..build it up..break it down...do it again...and have a definitive sting ending , never fade otherwise the music editor won't be able to get out of your cue and into the next scene.

Understand that it's not just a matter of how good your track is but also how good your track fits for what that particular client is looking for. There are lots of excellent songs that don't get the placement simply because it doesn't fit that client's current project. So yes, if your music has good production and you're pitching it to the right listing, you have an equal chance as anyone to get placed. :)

Hi y'all!!

New member here 👋 Really excited to join this amazing musical family!

I'm wondering if the chances of getting placements are slim because there are so many amazing TAXI musicians submitting to the same listings? (Yes, I've been reading through the forums/listening to tracks!) :o

Wondering if no matter how much of an amazing musician/producer you are, the chances are still slim because of the amount being submitted each time?

Your hopeful new friend,

p.s. I'm actually quite tech savvy and can't get this avatar to save :lol:
The amount of music selected has nothing whatsoever to do with the amount submitted, beyond how long it takes to winnow out the chaff. Ratios are totally genre-dependent; lotsa great hiphop producers/opportunities, and not so many for Peruvian Nose Flute solo pieces. In the event that solo PNF is the brief, the nose flute guy is gonna get the gig.
