Lots of forwards in 2019 led to 1rst Deal in a long time

I really stepped it up in 2019, and after 22 forwards in different genres, I will be signing two tracks to a library via a Taxi forward! Forwarded 12/19, library contacted 3/20. It was this one:
Of course, once you've got that door open, they ask for more. This 2nd track was initially returned because, thinking myself helpful, I added an urban element to it, but the Taxi screener rightly said the company wanted specifically "Middle-Eastern" influenced. But as it happens, getting foot in said door, publisher said to write more if I want! So there you have it.
NOW, I must do my first crack at making stems and alternate mixes which the library has asked for!

1st one: Cool, I hear the bubbles and someone is knocking on the glas!
Nice wind instrument and vocalizations as well!
Congrats!

Thanks Tom! And there's probably some slightly tense smirking or something happening too. lol

Thanks Darren! Yes, exactly a "re-action" finally. I know it can take some time and everyone's timeline is different. #persistance
