Return for Listing: S240103NA - ANTHEMIC, MODERN ROCK SONGS
Posted: Sat Jan 13, 2024 4:38 am
Hi folks,
Just got a return and although I understand that my track is not exactly Anthemic Rock, one part of the critique I didn't understand.
The review:
What I like most about this song
You have a very dynamic vocal!
I think you could improve this song by
This is quite good, but could also be more Anthemic. Sometimes the doubled vocal in the topline is too hot.
I returned or forwarded this song because
Nice tune, but not really a 100% match for this particular listing.
X Mood is off target with the listing request
"Sometimes the doubled vocal in the topline is too hot."
What it means? Funny two friends listened to the song just praised how good the harmonics and backing vocals in the song...
Any ideas? Thanks!

ANTHEMIC, MODERN ROCK SONGS with Male or Female Vocals are needed by the CEO of an A-List Music Library that has landed countless placements over a very long, successful period.
This Library is looking for Songs in all Tempos and moods that could fit in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references:
"Cruel" by LYELL
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8xgu91c0D8
"Sharkbait" by Mouth Culture
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMfH0rTRKfs
"The Knock" by Feeder

Quoting the Company's CEO: "I’m looking for ultra-talented artists, songwriters, and producers that we can develop a relationship with, and are capable of producing an album's worth of songs."
Please send in top-tier Rock Songs bursting with epic, anthemic energy all the way through! Your submissions should have catchy melodies, ear-worm hooks, energized rhythms, and well-crafted lyrics. Rock instrumentation that's in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the reference songs will work best for this pitch. Please be sure that your productions and any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality, modern, and competitive with the references. Expressive, well-performed vocals are the way to go.
Your Songs need to be about 2 to 3 minutes in length (it's fine to go a bit longer). Lyrics should ideally avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.
