A company loves my work..now what?
Posted: Mon Feb 27, 2017 4:41 pm
Hi All,
Hope this post finds you well! I got an email from a creative director at a company I was forwarded to who really liked what he heard and asked for more. I have sent them 12 tunes..he likes all of them , is very enthusiastic about the tunes and needs to review internally then will get back to me. Is there anything in Taxi posted or video as to how to be prepared for what happens next in these type opportunities? I am registered with Ascap.
Below is the listing and I thank you in advance for your input!

VINTAGE RECORDINGS of ORIGINAL (no covers) of 1960’s – 1970’s LIGHT, BREEZY, “STRUMMY ACOUSTIC-BASED,” FOLK-Y SONGS are needed by an A-List Publisher for Film and TV sync licensing opportunities. If you’ve got old recordings (with Male or Female Vocals) that sound like they could be on a playlist with the references below, or anything that’s in that general ballpark, you might have exactly what this awesome publisher needs:
ou can submit old masters or demos for this pitch. The recording quality is not expected to be on par with today’s broadcast quality! Many TAXI members have been signed by this publisher with nothing more than good demo recordings! They’re much more interested finding music that sounds authentic to the time period!
This Publisher is the hot, go-to company for a long list of extremely popular TV shows and big Feature Films when they need music that is authentically from a particular time period. The Publisher pays youupfront for the master rights and the Publisher’s share of the copyright, and you keep the Writer’s Share of the publishing and earn income from performance royalties paid by your Performing Rights Organization.
This company often averages several placements per week, and many of those are TAXI members who’ve been signed with this company because they submitted to a listing like this! Dozens of TAXI members have signed buy out, cash-up-front deals with this company. Several have even received up front checks for $10,000 - $15,000 (or more!) Deal sizes and buyout amounts vary depending on the quantity and quality of the songs signed by the Publisher.
