HELP! Stinger endings

Post by sephiramusic2005 » Tue Jun 15, 2021 12:45 pm

Hi there, a question relating to # S210623MN - sad string & piano instrumentals
submission. I have a few tracks that meet the criteria perfectly but don't have
buttoned/stinger endings. Here is the link to the track
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giqk7Qi-ZdI - what would you suggest I do? We
don't have experience with buttoned/stinger endings as we are a music act
writing and performing our original material. Myself and my sister are Irish
and quite new to Taxi and really want to get into the swing of how things work
even if it means learning how to edit this track to have a buttoned/stinger
ending. Any tips you can send our way
would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance

I think the ending on this piece is perfectly fine. It's not a hard stop on a downbeat, but it is musically tasteful. Nice music!

Isnt the problem that the tracks are already registered with a publisher...? (cant be exclusive?)

Thanks so much for this info. This is where we get really confused. We wrote, recorded and released this music under our own label Cicero Records. We also own the publishing. We use Tunecore for distribution. Does this info help to answer your question? Is there something that I’m not understanding? Thanks again for helping us out.

Hi Sephira

You have a great track!! The only issue i see is the length of the track as the listing suggest submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take and your track is 3:57; so maybe that would be a problem to get a forward. But other than that i think you have a broadcast quality piece.

Hi Juan, thank you so much for your feedback. We are going to try an edit of it to reduce it down to the 2 mins. Really appreciate your help.

Thanks, Joyce
