Welcome, Dan.I listened to the two tracks on your site. I think they have lots of character and potential.They're in desperate need of live players, and it's often hard to tell what section of the song we're in (partly because there is no vocal guiding us).Nonetheless, I think these tunes could have appeal. With some great lyrics and real instruments, I can hear your songs becoming catchy, John Mayer-influenced, mellow pop tunes.What are you hoping to do with your music?Andre

Andre,Im just waiting for my "vocalist" to get back to me with extra thinking. One day is still up in the air with vocalist. I want to pitch and market my songs to who ever I can. I also want to write and compose for film/tv. Are you a memever for Taxi?? Anywho, Be glad to hear from you.Dan

Dan-I'm not a member of Taxi yet, but I will be soon...just waiting until I have some time to devote to Taxi pitches.If you know the markets you want to tackle, then I suggest emulating artists in those styles to understand what they're doing...and then branch out with your own "versions" of those styles. Commercial music is all about boundaries, and ya gotta know where the lines are to paint inside 'em.Keep working hard and you'll do fine!Andre
