THREE PIECE JAZZ INSTRUMENTALS are needed by the President of a Music Library that’s placed tons of music for TAXI members. They’re looking for Mid-Tempo Jazz Trios that could be background music for an upscale party, cocktail lounge, charity event, etc., etc., etc. Please take a listen to the following examples to get a general sense of what they’re searching for:
“Old Fellow” by the Jeff Johnson Trio:

“Blue In Green Version 2” by the Bill Evans Trio:

“The Ballad of the Sad Young Men” by the John Harrison Trio

They’d like Original Instrumentals (no covers, please) that are smooth and sophisticated, while not being too overly expressive -- something ideal for setting the background “tone” for an upscale party, restaurant, lounge, or event, without drawing any attention to itself. In other words, your music will be “wallpaper” of sorts, and shouldn’t get in the way of a scene’s dialog. Your three-piece instrumentation can be comprised of drums, double bass, and a third instrument such as piano, trumpet, clarinet, guitar, etc., etc., etc. Don’t use instrumentation that isn’t typically found in Jazz music. Please avoid submitting anything that sounds stiff or obviously MIDI-driven. The more authentic sounding, the better! Broadcast quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine).
Forward:
ORIGINAL JAZZ INSTRUMENTALS are needed for a Non-Exclusive Placement by the Music Supervisor of an extremely successful TV show. The Track will be used as background source music during a dinner scene in an upscale restaurant. He's on the hunt for mellow, smooth, sophisticated sounding Jazz Instrumentals that can be heard on some of the tracks on Miles Davis' Kind of Blue album. Note: The tracks with busy, upfront solos are NOT what the Supervisor needs.

Quoting the Source: "I'm looking for some light cocktail music to play as background source during a dinner scene. This would be more straightforward, serious dinnertime Jazz. None of the lead instruments should be too intrusive or out front. Any examples from Miles Davis' Kind of Blue album would work great as a reference!"
Give him instrumentals that you wouldn't mind hearing during a classy Valentine's Day date with your significant other. Mellow Instrumentals with a small ensemble sound and sparse instrumentation should work best for this pitch. This will be background source music and needs to help create the atmosphere of the scene, so anything that gets too loud, busy, harsh, and/or frenetic probably won't work well.
