OMG!! Forward morphs into deal!!

Post by hummingbird » Mon Feb 08, 2010 8:48 pm

Got a forward a while back to the folks that ran this listing:

AUTHENTIC WORLD INSTRUMENTALS - both Contemporary and Traditional - are being sought by a Production Company/Music Library (with clients such as the Discovery Channel and MTV and film credits such as American Gangster and Bourne Ultimatium) for inclusion on their roster to pitch for Film and TV song placements. Excellent arrangements, performances and recordings are a must. They offer a non-exclusive publishing deal with a 50/50 split on any upfront license fees as well as back-end performance royalties (meaning you will keep the writer share, the publishing share will go to the company). Broadcast Quality is needed (excellent sounding home recordings are fine). Please submit one to three instrumentals online or per CD. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than Tuesday, August 18, 2009. TAXI #Y090818WO

Just got an email and a contract. I have to submit the music on CD for further review, but my foot is in the door!! I'm very pleased!!

Here's the track -- http://www.vikkiflawith.com/audio/VIKKI ... s_Danc.m3u

THANKS TAXI!!! :P :P

Congrats Vikki --

I just got a contract offer from what looks to be the same company (unless mine happened to be looking for authentic world instrumentals as well, and is working with the same networks (Discovery and MTV)).

Take care,
Peter
