Hey everyone!

I’ve been a member for years but have never posted but to thank a screener for excellent suggestions. So I thought I’d give it a go with posting a recent forward. It’s titled Dark Search if you’d like to listen. Oh and a shout out to Matt in the Taxi office for his forums set up help!

Lots of INVESTIGATIVE TENSION INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Music Licensing Company that's secured tons of great placements with Major Network TV Shows, Films, Commercials, and Video Games. This Company has signed lots of TAXI members over many years and nailed down lots of placements for them!

This Company is looking for Instrumentals in the general wheelhouse of the references below:

"404.2 IRC Fantasy" by Mac Quayle

"Race to the Finish" by Kenneth E. Belcher

"Crime Scene" by Thomas Ferriere

Send them well-composed Investigative Tension Instrumentals with moody motifs, engaging arrangements, and tons of suspenseful energy. Instrumentation that's generally similar in style to the references will work best for this request and can include orchestral or electronic elements (or a combination of both!). Craft your pieces around a singular motif and create a sense of tension, forward motion, and interest by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. Keeping your motifs on the simpler side is recommended. Please be sure your production and any software sounds or samples you use are high-quality and state-of-the-art. If you have tracks that could work well for crime shows, this Company wants to hear them!

Submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take, and have non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. You’ll split all upfront sync fees 50/50. They’ll get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll keep 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed with other Libraries or Catalogs. Please send as many Instrumentals as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. All Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Monday, September 5th, 2022. TAXI Dispatch # D220905NV

Hey Marco!

Not sure I can make it to the Rally this year, but would love to run into you. I reserved a double bed room but haven’t booked a flight yet.

It is the same for me, really: I booked everything, but with that UK bound for recession I need to think about my family, first
