SAD, PIANO-Based INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a rapidly growing British Music Library that's been using TAXI as its primary source of new music for a large-scale catalog expansion.
They're looking for Down-to-Mid-Tempo Instrumentals that would fall in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references:
"Crying Alone" - Sad & Emotional Piano Song Instrumental
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMvCfm_AjYo
"Teardrops" - Beautiful Sad Piano Instrumental
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3onzY4MNxE
“It’s Hard to Say Goodbye” by Michael Ortega

Please submit Original, well-performed Piano-Based Instrumentals that evoke a sad, melancholy, and/or somber mood. Solo Piano pieces can work well for this request, as well as pieces that have some additional (albeit minimal) instrumentation as well: i.e. violins, cellos, etc. Instrumentals that stick to one emotion from top to bottom will work best. If your Instrumental is able to underscore somber scenes like funerals, breakups, and other painful life moments, you should be right on target for this request.
TAXI TIP: If you’re using a sampled/virtual Piano, be sure that it doesn't sound synthetic or obviously MIDI-driven as that won’t work for this pitch
All submissions should be 2 to 4 minutes long, give or take. Non-Faded endings will work best. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, texture and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.
This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal, so please be sure the material you pitch for this opportunity is NOT already signed with other Companies or Catalogs. Any sync fees will be split 50/50 with the Company. You'll get 100% of the Writer's share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit. Please submit as many Instrumentals as you'd like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis - No full critiques. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Wednesday, June 19th, 2019. TAXI Dispatch #D190619SP
