Showtime Placement

Post by bmete » Tue Nov 08, 2011 8:44 pm

WAHOOOO!

Just got an e-mail stating that my tune Dark Moon Over Me, has been placed on the Showtime series Californication airing in Feb 2012.
This was my first deal signed with this very prominent West Coast Library in 2008. It is also a co-write with Ryan( my son) and Nita Hope ( Squids). What a great way to help getting over Rally Withdrawal!!!!!

TAXI RULES, ( I think I've said that before).

I can't tell you all how happy and excited I am.

OMG, that is majorly cool, Bob. I'm a big David Duchovy fan, but I don't have Showtime, sniffle. Maybe someone can tape that episode and send it to me.

You, Squiddy and Ryan all deserve it. Congrats to all of you. Now I can say I know someone who had a song placed in Californication. What a WOW factor, hehe. :D

Thanks Everyone for your kind words!

Still walking on cloud 9....

Thekman- Here's the link to the tune, I've been taking down a number of songs to make room for some of my newer stuff.

Dark Moon Over Me ( female version )Nita Hope
http://www.reddproductions.net/darkmoonoverme.mp3

I was just thinking about product extensions- we have 4 versions- a female voice english, a male voice , english) a female voice in Portuguese ( Squids is also singing that ), and an instrumental version. I guess it is one way to expand a catalog.

Again, thanks everyone!


Bob
