2 Forwards for High Energy Hard Rock/Punk Songs

Post by bigbluebarry » Wed Jan 14, 2009 6:12 am

Here's the listing:HIGH ENERGY HARD ROCK/PUNK SONGS AND INSTRUMENTALS are needed by the Music Supervisor for a few new reality shows by the creators of "Jackass" and "Rob and Big". If you already submitted to D081030RK, please submit different material - as noted in that listing, this Sup had a very urgent need for material but also would like a range to work with over time. You can think in the stylistic approach of Demented Are Go!, System of a Down, Slipknot, Nine Inch Nails, Suicidal Tendencies, Social Distortion, etc. You can present lyrics that are a bit left of center and wacky, but remember that these songs are for a show with some humor - nothing too dark, morose or angry. Instrumentals will be considered as well as songs with vocals. Performances need to be great and the tempo/energy needs to race. Recordings must be at Broadcast Quality, though excellent home recordings should be just fine. We'll need to be pretty selective here, so make sure to send in your BEST 1-3 songs online or per CD - include lyrics if applicable. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than December 23, 2008. TAXI #Y081223RKI ended up writing two songs specifically for this listing and both of them got forwarded! WOOO HOOO!!!! Much like AllenDS felt some personal triumph in a recent New Age forward, I felt some in this one. I submitted my track "I Like The Pain" to the original dispatch listing, actually wrote the song for the listing, but it was returned. Then they ran another listing looking for some "down and dirty rock cues." I wrote 2 pieces for it and they were both returned. So I was determined on this one to hit the mark. In the process of trying, I even had fun Without any further ado...Here are the links:1) There's No Charge For Awesomeness - http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... ream=true2) There's No Escaping Steve, Part 2 - http://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_ ... m=trueSome of you may remember the first one as my holiday gift. Regarding the title of the second one, it's not about any specific Steve here on the forums. It's about a Steve I used to work with at my last job. But if any of you Steve's out there want to think it's about you, please feel free to do so Rock On!- Big Blue
