New Deal - from this Forum!

As some of you may know, there was always a rumor that Library Owners are occasionally following these Forums.

Well, I can attest to that theory myself as I have been contacted by a Library Owner who was kind enough to ask me to join their team of composers (many of which are Taxi members and familiar faces in this Forum too :) ) as he liked my positive attitude in here. During a pleasant Zoom session with this gentleman he reaffirmed the fact that positive and pleasant attitude is the number 1 thing he is looking for as unless one has zero talent, most of our musical imperfections can be ironed out, but no one wants to work with someone who projects a negative attitude especially since we are trying to build long and fruitful friendships / relationships. I wholeheartedly subscribe to that point of view!

The other thing this gentleman pointed out is that it was hard for him to track me down as I did not have my contact info easily available on my profile :idea: As you can see I went ahead and fixed that by providing links in my signature so that it appears each time I interact. I highly suggest you do the same as you never know who is following out there!

Lastly I want to thank Michael and everyone at Taxi as even though this one wasn't a direct result of a forward, it still wouldn't have been possible without Taxi. Apart from them providing this forum for free to anyone, my music has also improved a lot (always a work in progress!) thanks to this Forum, TaxiTv and the screeners feedback especially on those much loved returns! ;)

I am humbled by this experience and grateful to be on board. I'm really looking forward to build relationships, working with and learning from these super talented and much more experienced team of composers.

Thank you Taxi (if there was a heart emoticon I would have inserted one here) :D

Best Regards,
Owen

Huge congrats to you, Owen!! I've always stressed this myself. Nobody wants to work with people who are antagonistic, negative, combative, etc (in general: "a-holes").

I'm 99% sure I know which library owner you are talking about, but he's not the only guy who checks in - and often interacts under the radar - on these forums!! In the famous words of my mother at Christmas time when I was a kid..... "Santa is watching!"

Fantastic Owen! I have no doubt that the quality of your music is a big factor in this event, but coupling that with a helpful and positive attitude is golden and a lesson for all. Congratulations on the hook-up and good luck for great things to come from it. :)
