Dark underscore

Post by Pvgeldrop » Fri Dec 22, 2023 5:51 am

Hi everyone,

Having been away for a while, and not wanting to underestimate the 'underscore'-type cues, I'd love to get some feedback on my two cues so far.

The listing:

----------

Lots of DARK, HORROR-Style UNDERSCORE INSTRUMENTALS and/or INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a Great Music Licensing Company with lots of Film and TV placements. They need a bunch of great new tracks to meet increased demand in this genre!

This Library is looking for several Instrumentals (and/or Cues) in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references:

"Shivers" by Nox Arcana - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIpkq-2BtVI

"Sewer Enter Lair" by Rik Schaffer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRmFAcJqbO4

Please submit well-crafted Horror-Style Instrumentals and/or Cues that give off a dark and ominous vibe and sound. Your submissions should have tense motifs that keep listeners on the edge of their seats! Instrumentation that's in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the references will work best for this pitch. Please make sure your productions are polished, and that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding.

Your submissions should be roughly 90 Seconds long for Cues, and about 2 to 4 minutes long for Instrumentals, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best. Please do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a guide for tempo, texture, and tone. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal, so please be sure the Instrumentals and/or Cues you pitch for this opportunity are NOT already signed with any other Companies or Catalogs. Any sync fees will be split 50/50 with the Company. You'll get 100% of the Writer's share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's share. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright to submit. Please submit as many Instrumentals and/or Cues as you'd like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Tuesday, January 2nd, 2024. TAXI Dispatch # D240102RU

Thanks in advance to anyone taking the time to listen and give some feedback. :-)

Thanks for pointing that out, CD. I followed the instructions, but appears I'm still getting an error as well. Weird. Even checked Paulie's video to make sure I'm not missing something.

Well, Soundcloud links instead then:
