Two for two on this listing:Y090206IN"HAPPY/UPBEAT/FUN INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a successful Production Music Library/Publisher that has signed and placed tons of TAXI writers/songs over the years. This company will be looking for material that would be great for Feature Films and TV/Radio/Commercials. The tone can be quirky and comedic, light and airy, bouncy and silly, etc. Primarily, the focus will be on spare instrumentation that features clever dynamics and melodic "moments". The range is wide here stylistically, with the focus being on the overall tone. Nothing dark, dramatic or moody for this one - only happy and fun. There are no arrangement restrictions here, but be sure the instrumentation isn't too thick or lush. The performances/production must be excellent and the recordings need to be Broadcast Quality (great home recordings should be fine). Pieces should not exceed 4 min. in length and they need to have clear endings - no fades. Please submit one to three pieces online or per CD." The Mirthmakershttp://

Congrats on the forwards! I got a BIG kick out of "Time For Pie". I thought I was listening to some game show music (like "The Price Is Right") or something with The Mirthmakers. Both of these sound REALLY GOOD!ibanez468

Hey, thanks everybody! I really appreciate your feedback. I don't know if anyone caught the reference, and I'm probably giving away my age here, but The Mirthmakers was inspired by a TV show in the '70's called "Fernwood Tonight, " a spoof of talk shows but set in a small town and starring Martin Mull and Fred Willard. The house band was Happy Kyne and the Mirthmakers (Happy Kyne played by composer Frank De Vol). Here's the opening of the show on YouTube.
