Very happy to be forwarded for the FUNKY/SOULFUL POP listing, as I worked very hard at crafting the sounds and studying the reference tracks. Writing specifically to listings has proven to be the key to success lately. Spent way too many years trying to match my pre-existing tracks to the listings. It was time to take things more seriously and do this correctly.
Here is my track:

Here is the listing:
FUNKY, SOULFUL POP INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a great Publisher with an awesome track record of really big placements in TV Commercials!
NOTE: We previously ran this request as TAXI Dispatch Listing #D211121UN, but the Publisher didn't find what they were looking for. If you submitted to listing #D211121UN, please send different material this time around.
This Publisher is looking for a bunch of Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumentals that could fit stylistically on a playlist with the following examples:
"Just Watch Me Now" by Lady Bri
"mas queso" by Floyd Wonder
"Feelin It" by Danger Twins
Although the references have vocals, please submit Instrumentals only for this pitch.
Please send well-produced, soulful Pop Instrumentals with funky bass lines, danceable rhythms, catchy motifs, and a healthy dose of fun energy. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and modern.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT submit any tracks with spoken producer tags/watermarks as they're not usable for film and TV placements.
Submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best for this pitch. Do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

Re: Funky/Soulful Pop
Nice one Jeff! I like the sounds and the mood. Was just wondering what the screener had to say. IMO the drum sound could have a bit more bite.
Good Luck and Happy and Successful 2022

Re: Funky/Soulful Pop
Thanks Chris. Really appreciate the listen. Your stuff is amazing, btw!!! Do you think the drums could be louder or are you referring to adding more fills/variation, etc...?

Hi Jeff, next time before I drop my lines I will listen to the tracks in my studio and not with my ear pods! I agree with the screener! The whole track including the drums sounds DOPE!
