Havent had a forward in a while but this was ! INSPIRATIONAL AND UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTALS in all styles are needed by a great Production Music Library/Publisher that has signed tons of TAXI members over the years, and has made money for many. These Instrumentals can be lush orchestral arrangements, simple/acoustic piano or guitar pieces, lilting/playful Alt Country/Singer-Songwriter tracks, etc. The only absolute must is that the overall tone is very inspiring, heartwarming and light. Think of a commercial where children are laughing, a couple is holding hands and walking along the side of a lake, a baby is playing and giggling with a grandparent, etc. - these pieces need to reflect a warm and glowing mood to support visual scenes of this nature. Tracks should ideally be between :60 and 3 minutes in length - you must be prepared to provide shorter edits with button endings, should the company contact you. Performances need to be excellent and broadcast quality is necessary - great home recordings should be just fine. Their deal is typically an exclusive agreement with a 5-year reversion clause. Please submit one to three tracks online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS ONLY - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than December 19, 2008.

Thank you guys! BTW, this was a return from another listing that it didnt fit in, but it was good for this one. Proof that if you keep writing and writing, you'll find a listing for your work. Yeah Dave! Loooove my Sampletekk

Sweet!! Very nice piece.I really hear your classical touch in the playing, so smooth and expressive, great balance between the hands, the melody sings. All the things a jazz pounder like me wishes he could do! The piano sounds great!! Are you using the 7CG? It sounds nice and mellow with you playing it!Congrats!!Mazz

Awwwww Mazz! Thank you. Yup, the 7CG. Dave kept pounding my head about Sampletekk and I remembered you talking about the 7CG. In fact, I was going to PM you about your other recommendation: Visiondaw. I need new toys!
