Forward! Trailer-Style Covers of PD songs

Post by edmondredd » Mon Aug 30, 2021 3:24 pm

Happy to report a forward for Taxi listing S210809DC!
Here's the listing detail:
TRAILER-Style COVERS of PUBLIC DOMAIN SONGS with Male, Female, or Group Vocals are needed by a successful Los Angeles-based Production Music Library for a wide variety of TV, Film, and Advertising opportunities!

Please send Covers that could fit in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references we got directly from them:

"Ave Maria" by L'Orchestra Cinématique

"The Star Spangled Banner" by Chase Holfelder & Ursine Vulpine

Please submit reimagined Covers of Public Domain Songs with a generally similar epic, larger-than-life vibe to the references. Orchestral or Orchestral Hybrid instrumentation that includes Electronic and/or Rock elements are the way to go, here. Any and all software instruments or samples you use should sound current, fresh, and not dated. Your production should be slick and modern, as well. We recommend sticking as close to the original pieces' melodies and lyrics as possible so they're instantly recognizable to listeners. Expressive, well-performed vocals could help you seal the deal!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please double-check to make sure the pieces you submit are truly in the Public Domain!

Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. You’ll split any upfront sync fees 50/50. They’ll get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control 100% of your Master and Copyright. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed with other Libraries or Catalogs. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by a TAXI Screener who was personally selected by the Company requesting material. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Monday, August 9th, 2021. TAXI # S210809DC
You can listen to my submission here

Top-notch throughout - "MOURNFUL" (as in: HEAVY EMOTION) was the word that came to mind.
Good luck on the future placement where this fits and expresses the mood-to-picture & scene.

Thank you Peter. I guess that the song fits the reality we're actually in!
This too shall pass!

Absolutely excellent Edmond! The only outcome I can imagine is a library signing and a request for some more like it. Great work!
