"Risk It All" by USHER & H.E.R.

Modern R&B/Soul Instrumentation that's in the general stylistic ballpark of the references will work best for this. If you've got that undeniable superstar sound, then this Company wants to hear you!

Lyrics that avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity could make your Songs more appealing to this Music Publisher.

Broadcast Quality is needed.

NOTE: This Company is NOT looking for “typical library music” – they’re looking for music that's from real, working artists or bands that they can pitch to sync opportunities, and  they’re going to want to know more about you in the form of a bio! In your bio, please include any touring, fan base, sales, streaming, and social media figures you may have. If you’re an authentic Artist or Band that’s just starting out and you don’t have much of a story or track record, but you DO have an amazing sound and some killer Songs to back it up, they still want to hear you!

The specific deal points will be handled on a case-by-case basis. If you’re inclined to do an Exclusive deal, please don’t submit material that’s already signed with any other libraries or publishers, and that includes "monetization deals" you might have signed with online distributors – read the fine print. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright to submit to this opportunity. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD, and please include lyrics, photos, and a bio. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by a TAXI A&R Screener who works closely with the Company.

Lots of MODERN SONGS in ALL GENRES with the lyrical theme "Starting Something" and Male or Female Vocals are needed by a Successful Publisher with an awesome track record of really BIG placements, mostly in TV Commercials.

TAXI's Educated Guess: When companies ask for something as specific as this request, it often means they're pitching to a specific, big-time TV Commercial!

We purposely avoided putting references in this request as we felt they could potentially be more misleading or limiting, than helpful.

This Company is searching for positive, high-energy Songs with lyrics that include the following theme:

"Starting Something"

NOTE: Since this is a lyrical theme, your Songs don't HAVE to include the exact phrase, although they can. Your lyrics DO need to line up with the idea, however. (i.e. "Let's get started", "We start today", and "Ready to start" are all examples of what could potentially work)

They're looking for popular/commercially viable genres, including (but not limited to): Pop, Country, Rock, Singer-Songwriter, Folk, EDM, R&B/Soul, Rap/Hip-Hop, etc. We recommend that you avoid submitting anything in genres that don't have a lot of mainstream appeal!

QUOTING THE COMPANY: "We need something modern, with lots of dynamics and edit points. Looking for tracks that are recent and sound cutting-edge with sounds and production. The style/genre is open as long as it is modern, positive, high energy, and sounds like it could be on the airwaves. Ideally, the above lyrical theme is in the chorus and not just a line in a verse!"

Please submit Modern Songs in any commercially viable genre that use the lyrical theme listed above. Your submissions should have uplifting and positive motifs, catchy melodies, emotionally upbeat energy, modern and high-quality production, well-crafted lyrics, and solid arrangements. Since the listing is open to a wide variety of genres, instrumentation may vary based on which direction you go, as long as your submissions are competitive with other Songs in your chosen style. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding. Expressive Male or Female vocal performances will help you get the attention of this Publisher!

TAXI Tip: Songs with simple, yet impactful and universally-relatable lyrics will likely work best for this request. Read that twice, please!

Lyrics should avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. Any sync licensing fees are split 50/50. You’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. Please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed to any other Libraries or Catalogs.

PLEASE NOTE: This company would like you to submit at least 5 Instrumental Cues! They would prefer that you submit an entire album of 8-10 Instrumentals and/or Cues, but that's not a requirement! We are telling the Screeners working on these submissions to look for top-notch batches. That said, if the majority of what you submit is really strong, but one or two are A-minus, they will likely forward your batch. We can't promise that; but if the Screener thinks the overall project sounds really strong, but hears a couple of minor things that could be fixed, they will likely be forwarded, and we'll let the Company reach out to you to suggest what they think would improve your "batch."

All submissions should be roughly 1.5 to 2 minutes in length (give or take). Non-faded, Button/Stinger endings will work best. Please do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, texture, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. You’ll split any upfront sync fees 50/50. They’ll get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed with other Libraries or Catalogs.

TRAILER-Style INSTRUMENTALS with Lots of Emotion and BIG BUILDS are needed by a very successful boutique Music Library that's distributed by Universal and has tons of credits in Big Films, Countless TV Shows, and Commercials!

NOTE: We previously ran this request as TAXI Listing # D240226BU, but the Company didn't find what they were looking for, so they asked us to try again. If you submitted to listing #  D240226BU, please submit different material this time around.

This company gets some really, really great placements, and lots of them! Please listen to the following references the Library gave us to get yourself in the general stylistic wheelhouse of what they need:

Instrumental Examples

Quoting the Library's CEO: "We're looking for Instrumentals with a building structure that starts subtle and grows into a big, epic resolution. That said, each Instrumental should have one consistent motif and always stay very underscore-friendly, with relatively subtle use of melody. Rather, your arrangements should keep the pieces interesting by creating what we call 'sound substance' - sound tinkering, layering, development within existing elements (e.g. percussion), etc. So, the development should happen through the arrangement and the production and NOT by adding additional harmonic elements. Style-wise, your tracks should be much like trailer Instrumentals based on the sections and build, but with a clear hybrid approach and not overly orchestral/classical in instrumentation (but also not getting synth-y). Building, epic themes with a cinematic feel and a hybrid approach are what we want to hear."

Please submit well-crafted Trailer-style Instrumentals with an epic feel that could draw the listener in and connect them to what's happening on-screen. Your submissions should have captivating motifs and dynamic arrangements with 3 "acts" that build to a climactic ending like most modern movie trailers. Cinematic Instrumentation that's in the general stylistic ballpark of the references will work best.

All submissions should be about 2 minutes long, give or take. Good edit points and non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings are required. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, texture, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This Music Library offers an EXCLUSIVE deal with a cool twist. You’ll keep 50% of all gross income generated by your music, plus you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share income generated by your PRO. In other words, if the company licenses your music under a blanket deal, you’ll get income. If they license it for a YouTube video, you’ll get income. Not all music libraries pay you for things like that! The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share.

Because this is an Exclusive deal, the music you submit for this pitch cannot already be signed with other Libraries or Publishers. You must own or control 100% of your Master and Copyright. Please send as many Instrumentals as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Thursday, March 28th, 2024. TAXI # S240328MB

NOTE: We previously ran this request as TAXI Listing  # D240229UB, but the Company didn't find what they were looking for, so they asked us to try again. If you submitted to listing  # D240226BU, please submit different material this time around.

VERY Important Note: While no specific genre was mentioned by the company's CEO, if you listen to the examples linked below, you'll quickly understand exactly what he's hunting for!

This is a catalog you want to be in! Please listen to the following examples the Library's CEO gave us to get yourself in the ballpark of what they need:

Instrumental Examples

Quoting the Company's CEO: "The beginning should feel intimate and personal – like it's the beginning of a process. Then your arrangement should move forward with more instrumentation to create a sense of making progress. Finally, your pieces should have a positive, inspiring conclusion."

Please submit well-crafted Instrumental Cues full of inspirational and positive undertones! Even though the Library is asking for different sections, they only want Cues that stick to one melodic idea throughout! Layer instrumentation in and out as your tracks progress to create that sense of build and forward momentum. Pay extra close attention to how this is done in the references! Organic-based instrumentation that's in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the references will work best. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and realistic-sounding.

ADVICE DIRECTLY FROM THE LIBRARY'S CEO: "Many composers throw in way too many ideas and are not focused on ONE CENTRAL MOTIF: they try to keep things interesting by adding new harmonic lines and elements (melodies, even improvisations, etc) instead of focusing on the production and textures. What I'm looking for is basically: obvious production music (in form and structure), that sounds like commercial music (production style)." Put simply, keep it SIMPLE! We know that other Libraries like to receive music with complementary A and B sections, but this Library is NOT one of them – stick with ONE CENTRAL MOTIF per submission, please!

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

NOTE: This company has a strong preference for composers who understand music licensing companies and how typical music library deals are structured. If that's not you, they politely ask that you don't submit to this request.

This Music Library offers an EXCLUSIVE deal with a cool twist. You’ll keep 50% of all gross income generated by your music, plus you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share income generated by your PRO. In other words, if the company licenses your music under a blanket deal, you’ll get income. If they license it for a YouTube video, you’ll get income. Not all music libraries pay you for things like that! The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share.

Because this is an Exclusive deal, the music you submit for this pitch cannot already be signed with other Libraries or Publishers. You must own or control 100% of your Master and Copyright. Please send as many Instrumental Cues as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024. TAXI # S240403JR

We are telling the Screeners working on these submissions to look for top-notch batches. That said, if the majority of what you submit is really strong, but one or two are A-minus, they will likely forward your batch. We can't promise that; but if the Screener thinks the overall project sounds really strong, but hears a couple of minor things that could be fixed, they will likely be forwarded, and we'll let the Company reach out to you to suggest what they think would improve your "batch."

All submissions should be around 2.5 to 3 minutes in length (give or take), but not shorter than 2 minutes! Non-faded, Button/Stinger endings will work best.

NOTE: They’re in search of Instrumental Tracks that sound more like they belong on record and less like what might be found in a typical Production Music Library. In other words, not "stock music-sounding." Remember, your submissions need to lend themselves well to having another writer adding Top Line to your track(s).

All submissions should be around 2 to 3 minutes long, give or take. Do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form.

"Tensions Rising" by Matthew Carl Earl

"Ways of the Night" by Pablo Tovar

We recommend using real instrumentation for this request, but if you do choose to use any virtual instruments or samples, please be sure they are high-quality and sound extremely realistic. If you use samples, adding one organic/acoustic instrument played by hand can help the entire track sound more "human."

Emotionally Uplifting '90s POP BALLADS with Female vocals are needed by a Film/TV Music Publisher for an (up to) $20,000 placement in an upcoming feature film!

This Publisher is on the hunt for Songs with Female vocals that could work as a replacement for "Hero" by Mariah Carey, which is currently temped in:

"Hero" by Mariah Carey

They're NOT looking for clones or soundalikes! Similar tempo, style, and overall vibe? Yes. Clones? No!

Quoting the Publisher: "This Song needs to be emotionally strong and driven with an uplifting lyric."

NOTE: The Company would prefer to hear vintage recordings from the 1990s, but if you have more recently produced recordings in the general production style of the reference that convincingly sound like they were recorded in the 1990s, they'd love to hear those as well!

Please submit '90s Pop Ballads with an inspirational and uplifting sound! Your submissions should have beautiful melodies, memorable choruses, dynamic vocal deliveries, emotionally uplifting lyrics, and lots of '90s-inspired sound selection! Instrumentation that's in the general wheelhouse of the reference track will work best here. Engaging, well-performed Female vocals that capture the sound of the era are key for this listing!

Lyrics that avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity could be more appealing to those making the final decision. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Era-appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed.

NOTE: The sync fee we were quoted was up to $20,000; however, our experience tells us that this quote is probably based on them licensing a Song from a well-known act through a big publisher like Sony or Universal. We think the sync fee will be lower (in the $8,000 to $10,000 range) for an unknown, independent act or music licensed from a music library. It could go higher – we’re just being cautious and conservative.

This Publisher offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 deal. You’ll split any applicable sync fees 50/50.

Lots of '60s-Style POP SONGS with Male Vocals are needed by an A-List Sync and Music Licensing Company with a long list of notable placements in Film, TV, and Commercials.

This Publisher is on the hunt for Songs with Male vocals that could work as a replacement for "Happy Together" by The Turtles:

"Happy Together" by The Turtles

They're NOT looking for clones or soundalikes! Similar tempo, style, and overall vibe? Yes. Clones? No!

QUOTING THE LIBRARY: "We like the positive mood, the meaning, and the lyrics of the song. Ideally, the new lyrics should also center around being together and having fun." But, as always, they're not asking for clones!!!

NOTE: This Company is open to hearing both high-quality vintage recordings (recorded back in the day), OR recently recorded Songs in the general production style of the references.

Please submit well-crafted, 60's-Style Pop Songs full of positive energy and uplifting vibes! Catchy melodies, sing-along choruses, excellent musicianship, and well-crafted lyrics in the general ballpark of the themes listed above are all needed for this request. '60s Pop/Rock instrumentation that's generally consistent with the references and other similar artists from the '60s is a must-have – think drums, bass, guitar, etc. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use for this request are high-quality and era-appropriate. If you have tracks that could have sounded at home on a radio station in the 1960's, send them in!

TAXI Tip: A good way to ensure you're on the right path with new renditions of vintage music is to heavily rely on reference tracks while in the production process! The devil is in the details, and the more you nail in regards to what sounds authentic, the better chance you might have to get this Publisher's attention and ultimately land a sweet placement!

Lyrics should avoid references to specific names, places, dates, times, brands, and profanity. Please do NOT copy the referenced artist or song in any way, shape, or form. Use it only as a general stylistic guide for tempo, texture, and overall tone. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 deal, so please be sure the Songs you pitch for this opportunity are NOT already signed with any other Companies or Catalogs. Any sync fees will be split 50/50 with the Company. You'll get 100% of the Writer's share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's share. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit. Please submit as many Songs as you'd like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI.

Lots of MODERN SONGS in ALL GENRES with the lyrical theme "Starting Something" and Male or Female Vocals are needed by a Successful Publisher with an awesome track record of really BIG placements, mostly in TV Commercials.

TAXI's Educated Guess: When companies ask for something as specific as this request, it often means they're pitching to a specific, big-time TV Commercial!

We purposely avoided putting references in this request as we felt they could potentially be more misleading or limiting, than helpful.

This Company is searching for positive, high-energy Songs with lyrics that include the following theme:

"Starting Something"

NOTE: Since this is a lyrical theme, your Songs don't HAVE to include the exact phrase, although they can. Your lyrics DO need to line up with the idea, however. (i.e. "Let's get started", "We start today", and "Ready to start" are all examples of what could potentially work)

They're looking for popular/commercially viable genres, including (but not limited to): Pop, Country, Rock, Singer-Songwriter, Folk, EDM, R&B/Soul, Rap/Hip-Hop, etc. We recommend that you avoid submitting anything in genres that don't have a lot of mainstream appeal!

QUOTING THE COMPANY: "We need something modern, with lots of dynamics and edit points. Looking for tracks that are recent and sound cutting-edge with sounds and production. The style/genre is open as long as it is modern, positive, high energy, and sounds like it could be on the airwaves. Ideally, the above lyrical theme is in the chorus and not just a line in a verse!"

Please submit Modern Songs in any commercially viable genre that use the lyrical theme listed above. Your submissions should have uplifting and positive motifs, catchy melodies, emotionally upbeat energy, modern and high-quality production, well-crafted lyrics, and solid arrangements. Since the listing is open to a wide variety of genres, instrumentation may vary based on which direction you go, as long as your submissions are competitive with other Songs in your chosen style. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding. Expressive Male or Female vocal performances will help you get the attention of this Publisher!

TAXI Tip: Songs with simple, yet impactful and universally-relatable lyrics will likely work best for this request. Read that twice, please!

Lyrics should avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. Any sync licensing fees are split 50/50. You’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. Please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed to any other Libraries or Catalogs.

Emotionally Uplifting '90s POP BALLADS with Female vocals are needed by a Film/TV Music Publisher for an (up to) $20,000 placement in an upcoming feature film!

This Publisher is on the hunt for Songs with Female vocals that could work as a replacement for "Hero" by Mariah Carey, which is currently temped in:

"Hero" by Mariah Carey

They're NOT looking for clones or soundalikes! Similar tempo, style, and overall vibe? Yes. Clones? No!

Quoting the Publisher: "This Song needs to be emotionally strong and driven with an uplifting lyric."

NOTE: The Company would prefer to hear vintage recordings from the 1990s, but if you have more recently produced recordings in the general production style of the reference that convincingly sound like they were recorded in the 1990s, they'd love to hear those as well!

Please submit '90s Pop Ballads with an inspirational and uplifting sound! Your submissions should have beautiful melodies, memorable choruses, dynamic vocal deliveries, emotionally uplifting lyrics, and lots of '90s-inspired sound selection! Instrumentation that's in the general wheelhouse of the reference track will work best here. Engaging, well-performed Female vocals that capture the sound of the era are key for this listing!

Lyrics that avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity could be more appealing to those making the final decision. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Era-appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed.

NOTE: The sync fee we were quoted was up to $20,000; however, our experience tells us that this quote is probably based on them licensing a Song from a well-known act through a big publisher like Sony or Universal. We think the sync fee will be lower (in the $8,000 to $10,000 range) for an unknown, independent act or music licensed from a music library. It could go higher – we’re just being cautious and conservative.

This Publisher offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 deal. You’ll split any applicable sync fees 50/50. You’ll keep 100% of the Master rights and the Writer’s share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's Share for any placements they generate.

If you’re an authentic Artist or Band that’s just starting out and you don’t have much of a story or track record, but you DO have an amazing sound and some killer Songs to back it up, they still want to hear you!

The specific deal points will be handled on a case-by-case basis. If you’re inclined to do an Exclusive deal, please don’t submit material that’s already signed with any other libraries or publishers, and that includes "monetization deals" you might have signed with online distributors – read the fine print. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright to submit to this opportunity.

Lots of MODERN SONGS in ALL GENRES with the lyrical theme "Starting Something" and Male or Female Vocals are needed by a Successful Publisher with an awesome track record of really BIG placements, mostly in TV Commercials.

TAXI's Educated Guess: When companies ask for something as specific as this request, it often means they're pitching to a specific, big-time TV Commercial!

We purposely avoided putting references in this request as we felt they could potentially be more misleading or limiting, than helpful.

This Company is searching for positive, high-energy Songs with lyrics that include the following theme:

"Starting Something"

NOTE: Since this is a lyrical theme, your Songs don't HAVE to include the exact phrase, although they can. Your lyrics DO need to line up with the idea, however. (i.e. "Let's get started", "We start today", and "Ready to start" are all examples of what could potentially work)

They're looking for popular/commercially viable genres, including (but not limited to): Pop, Country, Rock, Singer-Songwriter, Folk, EDM, R&B/Soul, Rap/Hip-Hop, etc. We recommend that you avoid submitting anything in genres that don't have a lot of mainstream appeal!

QUOTING THE COMPANY: "We need something modern, with lots of dynamics and edit points. Looking for tracks that are recent and sound cutting-edge with sounds and production. The style/genre is open as long as it is modern, positive, high energy, and sounds like it could be on the airwaves. Ideally, the above lyrical theme is in the chorus and not just a line in a verse!"

Please submit Modern Songs in any commercially viable genre that use the lyrical theme listed above. Your submissions should have uplifting and positive motifs, catchy melodies, emotionally upbeat energy, modern and high-quality production, well-crafted lyrics, and solid arrangements. Since the listing is open to a wide variety of genres, instrumentation may vary based on which direction you go, as long as your submissions are competitive with other Songs in your chosen style. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding. Expressive Male or Female vocal performances will help you get the attention of this Publisher!

TAXI Tip: Songs with simple, yet impactful and universally-relatable lyrics will likely work best for this request. Read that twice, please!

Lyrics should avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. Any sync licensing fees are split 50/50. You’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher’s share. Please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed to any other Libraries or Catalogs.

This Label is on the lookout for Artists between the ages of 18 and 25 that would appeal to fans of the following examples:

WARNING: Some of the following references have graphic and explicit lyrics. Listener discretion is advised.

"FYS" by Chlöe

"When It Comes To You" by Fridayy

"Snooze" by SZA

"WY@" by Brent Faiyaz

Please submit modern R&B Songs with tons of mainstream appeal that showcase your one-of-a-kind style and sound! Your submissions should have alluring melodies, engaging grooves, catchy hooks, and well-written lyrics. R&B instrumentation that's in the general stylistic ballpark of the reference Songs will work best for this opportunity. Please make sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality, appropriate for this genre, and not dated-sounding. Great vocal performances could really help you nail this request!

NOTE: This client tends to prefer artists who write their own Songs (or have some songwriting abilities). An active social media presence is also a plus!

This Grammy-nominated Record Producer is looking for artists that could be the next big thing. He won't be looking as much for polished, perfect productions, as much as super fresh, marketable Artists with great, chart-worthy Songs! Your productions and recording quality still need to be clean, clear, well-balanced, and good enough to represent your Songs well.

We recommend submitting at least TWO to THREE Songs per submission so they can see if you’ve got depth in your material. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tone, texture, and overall vibe. This Record Producer is specifically looking for Artists that are between the ages of 18 and 25, so go ahead and submit to this opportunity if that's you!

Please submit as many Songs as you'd like, online or per CD. Include lyrics, a photo, and a bio. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024. TAXI # S240403VJ

WARNING: The references may include graphic and explicit lyrics. Listener discretion is advised.

"Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X ft. Billy Ray Cyrus

Please submit well-crafted Country/Hip-Hop Instrumental Cues that combine traditional Country twang with modern Hip-Hop energy!

PLEASE NOTE: This company would like you to submit at least 5 Instrumental Cues! They would prefer that you submit an entire album of 8-10 Instrumentals and/or Cues, but that's not a requirement! We are telling the Screeners working on these submissions to look for top-notch batches. That said, if the majority of what you submit is really strong, but one or two are A-minus, they will likely forward your batch. We can't promise that; but if the Screener thinks the overall project sounds really strong, but hears a couple of minor things that could be fixed, they will likely be forwarded, and we'll let the Company reach out to you to suggest what they think would improve your "batch."

All submissions should be roughly 1.5 to 2 minutes in length (give or take). Non-faded, Button/Stinger endings will work best. Please do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form.

VINTAGE POP/ROCK SONGS from the '90s with FEMALE Vocals are needed by a great Publisher with a long track record of really big placements in a lot of big TV Commercials!

NOTE: This company pays an upfront fee to creators! See below.

This awesome publisher is looking for Mid-to-Up Tempo Songs with Female vocals that sound like they could be on a playlist with the references:

"Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia

"I Touch Myself" by Divinyls

"Dreams" by The Cranberries

"Kiss Me" by Sixpence None The Richer

Broadcast Quality should be era-appropriate. You can submit old masters — or even well-recorded/produced demos — for this request.

Please submit original, Vintage Pop/Rock Songs from the '90s that sound like they could have been radio hits 30 years ago! Catchy melodies, memorable choruses, engaging rhythms, well-crafted lyrics, and plenty of '90s flair are all needed for this opportunity. Instrumentation that's in the general ballpark of the references will work best here. Compelling, Female vocals are needed!

Please make sure your Songs were actually recorded between 1990 and 2000 (give or take a couple years), otherwise this company cannot use them! They DO NOT want material that was recently recorded and made to sound old. They can only use AUTHENTIC, ORIGINAL, VINTAGE RECORDINGS, and only if the sound quality is reasonably good. This is a golden opportunity to make money with music you might have thought had no hope in today’s market!

The Company pays you upfront for the Master Rights and the Publisher’s share of the Copyright. You keep the Writer’s Share and earn income from performance royalties paid by your Performing Rights Organization. This Company often averages several placements per week, and many of those are TAXI members who’ve been signed with them because they submitted to a listing like this! Dozens of TAXI members have signed buyout deals with this company. Several have even received upfront checks for $10,000 to $15,000 (or more!). Deal sizes and buyout amounts vary depending on the quantity and quality of the Songs signed.

Your name needs to be on the Copyright. Your Songs need to be original compositions (no covers), and you need to own or control the Copyright and Master recording to submit for this pitch. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD. Please include lyrics. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024. TAXI # S240403FZ

Lots of INDIE ROCK INSTRUMENTAL CUES for SPORTS are needed by a super-active Production Music Library with a lot of placements on MAJOR networks!

This Library is on the hunt for Up-Tempo Instrumental Cues that are in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the following examples:

WARNING: The references may include graphic and explicit lyrics. Listener discretion is advised.

"TROUBLE" by The Bones of JR Jones

"I'M IN THE MARKET TO PLEASE NO ONE" by Winona Fighter

"Shake" by Saint PHNX

Although the references have vocals, please submit Instrumental Cues only for this request.

QUOTING THE COMPANY'S CEO: "We are searching for underscore instrumental cues that are upbeat, driving, and maintain a quick tempo and steady melody throughout. No Stops, cuts, or breakdowns. No Guitar solos or heavy metal tracks."

Please send in well-crafted Indie Rock Instrumental Cues that could work well in Sports TV Placements! Your submissions should have catchy, rockin' motifs, engaging rhythms, great musicianship, and dynamic arrangements with plenty of forward motion and interest. Rock instrumentation that's in the general wheelhouse of the reference tracks will work best. Please make sure any virtual instruments or samples you use are high quality and not dated-sounding.

PLEASE NOTE: This company would like you to submit at least 5 Instrumental Cues! They would prefer that you submit an entire album of 8-10 Instrumentals and/or Cues, but that's NOT a requirement! We are telling the Screeners working on these submissions to look for top-notch batches. That said, if the majority of what you submit is really strong, but one or two are A-minus, they will likely forward your batch. We can't promise that; but if the Screener thinks the overall project sounds really strong, but hears a couple of minor things that could be fixed, they will likely be forwarded, and we'll let the Company reach out to you to suggest what they think would improve your "batch."

All submissions should be around 2.5 to 3 minutes in length (give or take), but not shorter than 2 minutes! Non-faded, Button/Stinger endings will work best. Please do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, texture, tone, and overall vibe. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed.

This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal. You’ll split any upfront sync fees 50/50. They’ll get 100% of the Publisher’s share, and you’ll get 100% of the Writer’s share. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright. Since this is an EXCLUSIVE deal, please be sure the material you submit for this pitch is NOT already signed with other Libraries or Catalogs. Please submit as many Instrumental Cues as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Monday, April 8th, 2024. TAXI # S240408CP

QUOTING THE COMPANY:  "We are looking for Songs with a modern sound, high production quality, great vocal presence, and strong, high-quality instrumentation. It also needs to be radio-friendly with solid hooks. Vocals need to be modern and have mainstream appeal. We are not looking for ballads!"

IMPORTANT: Pay close attention to the vocal deliveries in the references to better understand the specific sound this Label is looking for. Anything that falls too far into sub-genres like post-hardcore, death metal, or black metal won't work for this opportunity.

Mainstream Metal instrumentation in the general wheelhouse of the reference Songs will work best. Please ensure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding.

IMPORTANT: This Label is interested in artists and bands that have gained some traction from actively working on their careers. Please detail (in your bio) what you are doing with your career. Include any impressive touring, fan base, sales, streaming, or social media figures. That said – if you’re a new artist or band just starting out and don’t have much of a story or track record, but you DO have an amazing sound and some killer Songs to back it up, they still want to hear you!

TAXI Tip: We recommend submitting 2-3 Songs per submission so they can see if you’ve got depth in your material.

Your recording quality needs to be clean, clear, and well-balanced so that it represents your Songs well. Do NOT copy the referenced examples in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for texture and tone.

The specific deal points will be handled on a case-by-case basis between you and the Label. You must own or control your Masters and Copyright to submit to this opportunity.

"Let's Stay Together" by Al Green

"Diamond in the Back" by Curtis Mayfield

"Love T.K.O." by Teddy Pendergrass

NOTE: You can submit recently recorded Songs in the general style of the references, OR if you have high-quality vintage recordings (recorded back in the day), they would love to hear those as well!

Please submit 70s-Style R&B/Soul Songs with timeless melodies, intimate choruses, groovy rhythms, solid arrangements, and soulful, and well-performed vocals that capture the sound and essence of R&B from the 1970s. Your submissions should have R&B/Soul instrumentation that is stylistically consistent with the references (and others like them). Please be sure your productions and any virtual sounds or samples you use sound era and genre-appropriate. Smooth, well-performed vocal performances are needed.

Lyrics should avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Please do NOT copy the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a guide for tempo, texture, and tone. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Broadcast Quality is needed. Era-appropriate broadcast quality is needed for vintage recordings.

Emotionally Uplifting '90s POP BALLADS with Female vocals are needed by a Film/TV Music Publisher for an (up to) $20,000 placement in an upcoming feature film!

This Publisher is on the hunt for Songs with Female vocals that could work as a replacement for "Hero" by Mariah Carey, which is currently temped in:

"Hero" by Mariah Carey

They're NOT looking for clones or soundalikes! Similar tempo, style, and overall vibe? Yes. Clones? No!

Quoting the Publisher: "This Song needs to be emotionally strong and driven with an uplifting lyric."

NOTE: The Company would prefer to hear vintage recordings from the 1990s, but if you have more recently produced recordings in the general production style of the reference that convincingly sound like they were recorded in the 1990s, they'd love to hear those as well!

Please submit '90s Pop Ballads with an inspirational and uplifting sound! Your submissions should have beautiful melodies, memorable choruses, dynamic vocal deliveries, emotionally uplifting lyrics, and lots of '90s-inspired sound selection! Instrumentation that's in the general wheelhouse of the reference track will work best here. Engaging, well-performed Female vocals that capture the sound of the era are key for this listing!

Lyrics that avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity could be more appealing to those making the final decision. Do NOT submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media. Era-appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed.

NOTE: The sync fee we were quoted was up to $20,000; however, our experience tells us that this quote is probably based on them licensing a Song from a well-known act through a big publisher like Sony or Universal. We think the sync fee will be lower (in the $8,000 to $10,000 range) for an unknown, independent act or music licensed from a music library. It could go higher – we’re just being cautious and conservative.

This Publisher offers a NON-EXCLUSIVE, 50/50 deal. You’ll split any applicable sync fees 50/50. You’ll keep 100% of the Master rights and the Writer’s share, and the Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's Share for any placements they generate. You must own or control your Master's and Copyright to submit for this opportunity. Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened and critiqued by a TAXI screener that was handpicked by the Music Publisher. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Thursday, March 28th, 2024.

This Publisher is on the hunt for Songs with Male vocals that could work as a replacement for "Happy Together" by The Turtles:

"Happy Together" by The Turtles

They're NOT looking for clones or soundalikes! Similar tempo, style, and overall vibe? Yes. Clones? No!

QUOTING THE LIBRARY: "We like the positive mood, the meaning, and the lyrics of the song. Ideally, the new lyrics should also center around being together and having fun." But, as always, they're not asking for clones!!!

NOTE: This Company is open to hearing both high-quality vintage recordings (recorded back in the day), OR recently recorded Songs in the general production style of the references.

'60s Pop/Rock instrumentation that's generally consistent with the references and other similar artists from the '60s is a must-have – think drums, bass, guitar, etc. Please be sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use for this request are high-quality and era-appropriate. If you have tracks that could have sounded at home on a radio station in the 1960's, send them in!

TAXI Tip: A good way to ensure you're on the right path with new renditions of vintage music is to heavily rely on reference tracks while in the production process! The devil is in the details, and the more you nail in regards to what sounds authentic, the better chance you might have to get this Publisher's attention and ultimately land a sweet placement!

TAXI Tip: If you nail this pitch and land in this company's catalog, you might not have a lot of competition when supervisors and editors are searching for this genre. This is a great chance to be a standout in a potentially under-populated genre. Zig when everybody else zags. ;-)

"Futatsu No Den-En-Shi (2 Pastorals)" by Yamato Ensemble

Your submissions must sound and feel like the real deal. Authentic performances and instrumentation are the key to nailing this request! We don’t recommend using virtual instruments for this pitch unless you are extremely masterful and your virtual instruments sound indistinguishable from the real thing. If you're from this region and grew up playing this type of music, that's a plus! If you have a catalog of Vintage recordings in this style, they'd love to hear those, as well!

All submissions should be about 2 to 4 minutes long for Instrumentals and roughly 90 seconds to 2 minutes for Cues, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best for this request.
