Hey Taxi peeps! ;) last minute entry here
If you have a chance please give me some feedback on this one Thanks!



SWAMP ROCK INSTRUMENTALS and/or INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a Top-Notch British Music Licensing Company with lots of great placements in Film and TV.

This Company is on the hunt for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Instrumentals (or Cues) that could fit on a playlist with the following references:

Moonshiners (from 24:13 - 24:58)

Swamp People (from 0:10 to 0:30)

"Moonshine & Gasoline" by Blues Saraceno

Duck Dynasty (from 16:18 - 16:33)

Although one of the references has vocals, please submit Instrumentals Only for this request.

Send them top-notch Swamp Rock Instrumentals (or Cues) with gritty guitars, solid rhythms, and a plenty of Southern charm that could work well for Reality TV shows. Your submissions should have memorable motifs, polished production, and typical Southern Rock-band instrumentation – think twangy banjos, electric guitars, harmonicas, etc. We recommend using real, organic instruments to add that authenticity factor that's needed for these kinds of Instrumentals. However, if you're planning on using any virtual instruments or samples, they should be high-quality and not dated. Craft your pieces around a singular motif and mood, and create a sense of forward momentum and dynamics by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress.

TAXI Tip: We think it would be wise to avoid guitar solos (especially in the higher registers) because they tend to be distracting or overpowering when placed under dialogue.

Not a comment - more of a question: what's the bpm; and what range of bpm is considered "mid-to-uptempo"...?
Solid-sounding track. I was wondering about the pace; that's all.
HTH,
Peter

Hey Peter!
BPM is 82, I think it's the same as "Moonshine & Gasoline" by Blues Saraceno
