I feel like I'm close with my track, but not quite there. Any suggestions.
Any feedback is welcome and appreciated!
Here's the listing.
KITSCHY, 1960s Style INSTRUMENTALS are needed by an extremely busy Music Library with a tremendously long list of killer placements in Hit TV Shows!
IMPORTANT NOTE: This Library is open to hearing both Vintage recordings from the 1960s OR recently-recorded tracks that sound like they could've been recorded in the '60s.
This Company is looking for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumentals in the general ballpark of these references:

Quoting the Library: "I'm looking for stuff like the music heard in all those old '60s films and documentaries. Tracks would need to sound authentic to the period, so no modern elements mixed in, like EDM or Electronica or whatever. Just pure '60s cheese."

Re: Kitshcy
Given this quote, seems like what sounds like synth patches and MIDI strings could get your track returned (i.e. beginning around the 1:04 mark) might be a no-go.mteezykeys wrote: ↑Thu Jun 29, 2023 7:41 amQuoting the Library: "I'm looking for stuff like the music heard in all those old '60s films and documentaries.

2 cents from a pair of old-guy ears.
The composition and production sounds great - maybe even a bit too pristine for '60s cheese.

HTH.
Your mileage may vary.

Re: Kitshcy
I think it's pretty good, nice and kitschy. The piano melody might be a little loud at times, maybe double check the mix on that. The French horn patch works for me, it might be a little too loud at times as well. Love the groove you've got going, definitely fits the genre. Now I need to go grocery shopping.
