Forwards > 2 ORCHESTRAL TRAILER INSTRUMENTALS
Same track for 2 forwards this week.
ORCHESTRAL, DRAMATIC TRAILER-Style INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a globally distributed Music Licensing Company that has a lot of success landing TONS of Major Network placements every year.
This Company is looking for Trailer-Style Instrumentals that are similar to the examples below:
The Fall of the House of Usher
WONDERWELL Trailer
The Lost Girls Trailer
Parasite Trailer #2
Please submit well-crafted, Dramatic Trailer-Style Instrumentals that evoke a sense of rising tension and emotion to whatever is shown on-screen. Your submissions should have captivating motifs and engaging, dynamic arrangements with three "acts" that build to a climactic crescendo. Orchestral instrumentation that's in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the references will work best. Please make sure your productions are polished, and that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high quality, realistic, and not dated-sounding.
Quoting the Client: "The format and the sound quality are extremely important. Composers should familiarize themselves with the 3-act structure and the current sound of today's top trailers. It is important to be on top of today's current production techniques as trailers follow a very specific format/sound."
Your submissions should be about 90 seconds to 2 minutes long, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best. Do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a general 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.

Congrats, Steve - from The Peanut Gallery.
TBH - I'd forgotten I'd already 'LIKE'd this track a while back on your Soundcloud page;
still sounds awesome and good ear-candy to hear it again.
And now it's gathering momentum on its journey.
More good reports to come, I reckon.
