Another Return for the Stomp Clap Rock Instrumental - Can someone help me?
Posted: Mon Mar 25, 2024 6:28 pm
I'm kind of annoyed that I somehow keep missing the mark here. Can someone help me fix this so that I can understand what I'm continually doing wrong? Thanks in advance. Maybe I need a collaborator with a bunch of forwards to work with and help reign me in / show me the ropes? For the record, if I recall correctly, every single one of the examples had a melody that I thought was supposed to be replaced by an instrumental melody because it didn't specifically state "underscore" and asked for earworm melodies so I went with the solo....

Here's the review:
What I like most about this song
Cool Blues Rock track. I like the riff. Good energy and swaggering vibe.
I think you could improve this song by
This has potential, But it is too solo based on the top line for large chunks. I'd limit the solos and follow more on the riff, textures, percussion and dynamics. Incorporate some breakdowns, bass and percussion only and sprinkle in some ear candy.
I returned or forwarded this song because
Could have a better developmental "arc" and less solo based top line.
And here's the stomp clamp rock listing:
A Bunch of HARD-HITTING STOMP-CLAP ROCK INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a great Publisher with an incredibly good track record of really big placements in TV Commercials!
This Publisher is on the lookout for Mid-Tempo Instrumentals that could be found on a playlist with the examples below:
"Most High" by boon
"Solo" by Prismo
"Monster" by Willyecho
Although the references have vocals, please submit Instrumentals only for this opportunity. Some non-lyrical vocals like "ahs," "woahs," etc., are okay to include – just don't overdo them!
Please submit Stomp-Clap Rock Instrumentals full of raw, bad*ss energy and an unapologetic swagger all the way through! Ear-worm melodies, hard-hitting rhythms, and dynamic arrangements with lots of forward motion and interest are all needed for this listing. Rock instrumentation that's in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the references will work best (gritty guitars, stomp-clap-style drums, etc.).
Submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best for this pitch. Do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a 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.
The specific deal points will be handled on a case-by-case basis. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright to submit to this opportunity. Please submit as many Instrumentals as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PST) on Wednesday, March 6th, 2024. TAXI # S240306CP
