First listing we've submitted to in at least 6 months and we got a forward. YIPEE!!!HIP-HOP INSTRUMENTALS IN ALL CURRENT STYLES are needed by a West Coast-based Music Publisher who typically supplies music to companies such as Muzak (tracks for retail shops, restaurants, malls, etc.) and also wants to find great material for TV projects, as he has prominent contacts in that world as well. Be sure there are no vocals on these tracks and no uncleared samples. He's asked us to be extra selective in what we forward - he wants quality over quantity - so your performances must be excellent. He offers numerous types of publishing deals. Broadcast quality needed [excellent home recordings are OK]. 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 February 26, 2009.

Probably over a year old and before some upgrades in software.

CONGRATS!! Must have felt REALLY great!!

Good job on the forwards! I also got a forward from this listing, not expecting it at all!

Orest,Thanks, it is a bit of a morale booster. We actually submitted 2 other songs on our other account. Those are newer sounding (and better sounding to me) and they passed on those. So it's interesting to see what makes it through. Melodist,CONGRATS!!! A surprise is good now and then !!!

gnarly - congrats!

Wow... you should be happy about this. High bar from the listing description.
