Swamped

Post by Telefunkin » Tue Mar 07, 2017 3:39 am

I'm very pleased that my track "Bottleneck Creek" was forwarded into the swamp.

Unfortunately, my 2 other submissions "Mud Bake" and "Man Grove" were 'not swampy enough' :roll:

SWAMPY INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by an internationally distributed, Exclusive Music Library with lots and lots of credits in commercials, movies, and TV Shows. They're searching for Down-to-Mid Tempo Instrumental Cues in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the following references:
"Swamp Blues (Slide/Bottleneck)" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iw7gRASUD4g
"Mean Old Thing" by Andrew Kubiszewki https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFBN14fO3S8
"Southern Comfort Slide Guitar Cover" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euFTVlrWZI4
Please submit Instrumental Cues that have a genuine backwoods vibe. Your arrangements should consist of mostly guitar, acoustic or electric, and can feature other authentic-sounding instrumentation such as Slide Dobro, Banjo, etc., etc. Anything that sounds stiff, synthetic, or MIDI driven won't work for this pitch. Your Cues should stick to a central melodic motif while adding layers of additional instrumentation as they progress. Avoid anything overly frenetic or complex, as it could distract from dialogue. Imagine the type of music you'd hear while a group of grizzled men enjoy a few beers after a long day of alligator hunting in the bayou. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PST), on Wednesday, February 22nd, 2017. TAXI #Y170222SC

The beer is good with this one! Very relaxing tune. "less is more" certainly worked here. This goes in my new "What he/she did" list :P

I had no idea there were swamps in South Yorkshire! Great job capturing the feel. I don't think I have this genre in me at all and I speed up when I'm driving through Louisiana. ;)
