EMOTIONAL PIANO-Based INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a successful, NON-Exclusive Music Library for placements in a popular Reality TV Show on MTV. They’re looking for Mid-Tempo Instrumental Cues that could fit in the stylistic wheelhouse of the following references: WARNING: One of the references has graphic and explicit lyrics. Listener discretion is advised. “Too Good At Goodbyes” by Sam Smith: ` https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_ub7Etch2U&t=91s “Stay” by Rihanna - Stay ft. Mikky Ekko: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JF8BRvqGCNs “The Worst” by Jhené Aiko (0:25 - 4:38) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEm3lY3trRU Although the references have vocals, this request is for Instrumentals only! Please submit well-crafted, Dramatic Instrumental Cues that have a bit of an ethereal feel and sound like they’d work well in a scene where someone is dealing with some type of struggle or inner turmoil. Ideally, they’d love for the Piano to have a light tension feel that has a good atmospheric development. Your submission can have a bit of rhythmic Urban undertone, but you’d be wise not to over do it. Build your Cue around a central melodic motif and create interest and forward momentum by adding and subtracting layers of instrumentation as your Cue progresses. NOTE: Your Instrumental Cues can have additional instrumentation, but the piano should be the focal point of the Cue. Submissions should be about 2 Minutes long (give or take), with Non-Faded, Buttoned endings. Do NOT copy the referenced music in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a guide for texture, tone, and vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). This company offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 split. You’ll split any upfront sync fees 50/50. You'll get 100% of the Writer's share. The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit for this pitch. Please submit as many Instrumental Cues as you’d like, online or on CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis – Short critiques only. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59PM (PDT), on Monday, May 14th, 2018. TAXI #D180514DE
