Taxi Music Forwards - Investigative Tension ..... and 2 for Dramedy!

Which means: “Hey cool track, I'm going to pass this on. It may be usable to the TV/Film/Publishing pro that will hear it next."

INVESTIGATIVE TENSION INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Music Licensing Company with a large list of placements in Films, TV Commercials, and A-List TV Shows. 

NOTE: This Company has signed lots of TAXI members over many years and nailed down lots of placements for them! 

This Company is looking for Instrumentals that could be found on a playlist with the following references: 

"404.2 IRC Fantasy" by Mac Quayle 

"Vacation Days" by Thomas Newman 

"The Crime Scene" by Kaae & Batz 

Please send well-composed Instrumentals that could help establish a suspenseful, tense mood in a variety of investigative scenes and scenarios. You'd be wise to stick to a singular motif throughout your pieces, and create a sense of forward momentum and dynamics by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. Your Cues can be composed around Electronic and/or Orchestral Instrumentation – dark, droning synths, moody orchestral arrangements, or a combination of both. Whichever approach you decide to take, your production and any virtual instruments or samples you use should be top-notch and modern. 

TAXI Tip: We suggest trying to keep your submissions on the simpler side, melodically. Your job is more about establishing a tense mood rather than winning "Composer of the Year"! 

Submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take, and have non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.

And for Dramedy....

ORCHESTRAL DRAMEDY INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a Music Licensing Company with a large list of placements in Films, TV Commercials, and A-List TV Shows. 

NOTE: This Company has signed lots of TAXI members over many years and nailed down lots of placements for them! 

This Company is looking for Instrumental Cues that could be found on a playlist with the following references:

"Fluffing a Duck" by Kevin MacLeod 

Fixer to Fabulous (from 2:44 to 3:21) 

Please submit quirky Instrumental Cues with high-quality Orchestral instrumentation that could help establish a light dramatic mood in reality TV scenes. Craft your Cues around a singular motif and mood, and create a sense of dynamics and forward momentum by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. Please be sure that your production and any virtual instruments or samples you use are fresh, high-quality, and modern. 

Submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take, and have non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.
