If you would have asked me for my future goals some few months ago I would have told you that one of them was to land the theme for a TV show. Little did I know that it was just around the corner. I have been a member of TAXI since summer of 2007 and have learned so much since then. Both about music production and about the business side. Much of that I learned from you - my fellow forum members. Without you I would not be where I am today. Thank you for always being ready and willing to teach and share. I have learned so much from you.

Fall of 2009 I had my first deal because of a TAXI connection and signed with a producer who, among other things, supplies music for several day time talk shows. Some few months ago I landed the theme for one of those shows together with my friend and colleague David John. We got to write a lot of additional music for the show as well and within the first two months of the show airing we have had over 450 placements total. It just keeps growing. :)

So… keep on pushing forward, keep on learning and improving, so that when the door opens you are ready to walk through. It could happen sooner than you expect.

Once again – thank you all for being such amazing people and for all the help and advice you have given me the last few years. I am hoping I may be of equal help to you some day.

PS. If you have never been to one of the Rallys you should seriously consider going next year. I went for the first time this year and was amazed at how much I learned, and how many wonderful people I met. If you think this forum is a great place to hang out - just wait until you meet these people in person!!! Thank you Michael L. for an amazing Rally! :)

EDIT: Not really important but I wanted to make a note anyway - I just realized that I have been a member since summer of 2008 - not 2007. :oops:
