I don't normally bother to post about placements as it's a pretty common occurrence at this stage , last month for example saw placements on Fox Sports for the Women's World Cup, 5 minutes of air time on The Incredible Dog Challenge on CBS, Options Action on CNBC, a BBC1 show about electric cars plus a bunch of other European stuff.

I was listening to the latest Taxi TV Episode on a long drive today called " Did You Know You're ALREADY a TV Composer? With John Pearson and Jim Thacker" when Micheal mentioned being impressed by several percussive cues on Discovery's Shark Vs Snake : Battle of the Bites. https://www.youtube.com/live/p1jgUW6bvz ... are&t=3612

I thought hey ! ..I had a percussion based cue used in that show this week - Maybe mine was one of ones he liked ? :lol:

I'm sure there were a ton of other great percussion cues as well so maybe mine wasn't one of those to which Micheal was referring. I've not seen it myself as we don't get that TV channel here but I thought I'd share it anyway - I had to deliver 3 Alt mixes which I've put into a little playlst

The placement came about from a direct library relationship and they sent out a specific brief for this very show back in March - I sent two two tracks iirc.

Congrats on all the great placements! I just watched that Taxi episode too.

So poisonous snakes biting sharks to death from the inside. An episode like that should get lots of air :)
