Inviting melodies, well-crafted lyrics, solid production, catchy choruses, arrangements with forward development, great musicianship, and wide commercial appeal are all recommended for this pitch.

Please make sure any samples or virtual instruments you use are top-notch and current-sounding. Vocals (Male or Female) should be heartfelt, charismatic, and performance-driven to get this Company's attention!
Lyrics should avoid using specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity. Do NOT copy the referenced acts or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a guide for tempo, tone, and 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.
AI ALERT: This company can't accept or sign music that has been lyrically or melodically composed using generative AI, nor will they accept backing tracks, full instrumental tracks, or vocal performances created with AI.
This company offers an EXCLUSIVE deal, and has a strong preference for signing material from songwriters who have worked with music libraries and licensing companies in the past and understand how standard deals work. You'll split all upfront sync fees 50/50. The Publisher will get 100% of the Publisher's share, and you'll get 100% of the Writer's share.

Please submit original, soul-stirring Songs (in a wide range of styles) with lyrics that tap into the raw and relatable emotions you feel when you get your heart broken! Your submissions should have catchy melodies, bold choruses, solid arrangements, and well-crafted lyrics centered on heartbreak. The best submissions will express vulnerability and emotional honesty, while still feeling musically engaging and having wide commercial appeal. Your lyrics should reflect common "heartbreak" related themes, like missing someone, letting go, longing, grief, healing, the bittersweet nature of love lost, etc.
Clean, contemporary production and sound design are needed. Due to the wide-ranging nature of the request, instrumentation may vary by your chosen style or genre. Please make sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding. Vocal tone and delivery will be critical to nailing this type of emotional storytelling. Vocals (Male or Female) should be heartfelt, expressive, and intimate, capturing the quiet devastation or aching pain of heartbreak.
TAXI Tip: Use dynamics to your advantage - subtle verses, vocal deliveries with character and variety, and swelling choruses that bring the Song to the emotional top can really elevate a Song in this style!
Lyrics that avoid specific names, dates, times, places, brands, and profanity could make your Songs easier to place. DON'T copy the referenced examples in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. DON'T submit any material with unauthorized samples of any other artists’ music, sounds, or any other form of media.

Your pieces should feature expressive, soulful guitar work, engaging rhythms, bluesy melodies and motifs, strong musicianship, and organic-sounding arrangements.

TAXI Pro Tip: Hand-played parts (rather than tightly quantized MIDI) could go a long way in capturing the human imperfection and authentic character of this genre. Don’t be afraid to embrace a little "looseness" in the performance, as long as it remains in time!
All submissions should be about 2 to 4 minutes long (give or take) with non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Don't copy the references in any way, shape, or form.

This seasoned team has an impressive list of credits and is currently hunting for excellent new material from TAXI members!
This Label is searching for Mid-to-Up-Tempo Songs that could be found on a playlist with the following references:
"Call Home" by Domingos Castro & Gonzo Mendes
Please submit well-crafted Indie Folk Songs with modern appeal and a bright, uplifting vibe! Your submissions should have catchy melodies, solid musicianship, memorable choruses, and well-crafted lyrics with a positive spin. Instrumentation and production in the general stylistic ballpark of the reference Songs should work best (think acoustic guitar, mandolin, banjo, drums, bass, etc.). Live instrumentation is recommended, but if you're using virtual instruments or samples, they must be high-quality and very realistic-sounding. Playing some of the virtual instruments "by hand" could really help them sound more authentic and human. Engaging, well-delivered vocals (Male or Female) with an Indie-inspired sound and style could be just the ticket for this opportunity! Original Songs only, please.
Lyric Tip: While not specified by the client, we think that clean lyrics will likely work best for this "TV/Film sync-oriented" opportunity. Lyrics should also avoid references to specific names, dates, times, places, and profanity etc. It makes them easier to get placed in multiple types of scenes and/or TV commercials.
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 to get you in the stylistic ballpark of the overall texture and tone.
AI ALERT: This company can't accept or sign music that has been lyrically or melodically composed using generative AI, nor will they accept backing tracks, full instrumental tracks, or vocal performances created with AI.

If you've already released them on Spotify, Apple Music, etc., or if they’re already published or administered by CD Baby Pro, TuneCore, etc., please do not submit them.
REALLY IMPORTANT: This Company is not just interested in a Song or two from you. They’re interested in building professional, ongoing relationships with artists who are highly committed to working hard and have the drive and ability to deliver a lot of super strong material. Having the right type of image and “looking the part” could be the icing on the cake, but first and foremost, it's about having great music and a strong work ethic!
The specific deal points will be handled on a case-by-case basis between you and the Label. You must own or control your Master and Copyright to submit to this opportunity.

Whether that means morphing it into a dark orchestral hybrid piece, an intense rock-driven version, a bass-heavy EDM remix, or even a jazzy or funky reinterpretation (and more!), the key is to retain the core melodic identity while giving it a unique, fresh twist. Due to the wide-ranging nature of the request, instrumentation may vary by your chosen style and how it differs from the original version. Please make sure that any virtual instruments or samples you use are high-quality and not dated-sounding.
This Company is open to hearing Instrumentals in most of the popular/commercially viable genres, including (but not limited to): Jazz, Orchestral, Pop, EDM, Hip-Hop, Country, Metal, R&B/Soul, Folk, Rock, etc. We recommend avoiding submitting anything in genres that don't have a lot of mainstream appeal.

Please submit subtle, emotionally evocative Piano Instrumentals with a minimalist vibe! Your pieces should convey a sense of space and quiet emotion, with arrangements that unfold gently and carefully. More often than not, this type of music would be used in the background of scenes in restaurants, bars/loungers, hotel lobbies, etc.
IMPORTANT: The focus should be on tone, mood, and nuance, rather than complexity or virtuosity in the instrumentation or arrangement. Intimate performances and tasteful dynamics are essential in nailing this pitch. Instrumentation should be minimal, centering around the piano, but a few tasteful additions like felt piano textures, soft string pads, or subtle ambient sound design may be appropriate, if they serve the emotional tone and remain understated. The company's CEO emphasized that any samples or virtual instruments used must be of very high quality and highly expressive. Performances that sound mechanical, "fake," or overly quantized will not be considered. Original Compositions only, please!
Your submissions should be about 2-4 minutes long, give or take. Non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings will work best. Do NOT copy the referenced material in any way, shape, or form.

Intimate performances and tasteful dynamics are essential in nailing this pitch. Instrumentation should be minimal, centering around the piano, but a few tasteful additions like felt piano textures, soft string pads, or subtle ambient sound design may be appropriate, if they serve the emotional tone and remain understated. The company's CEO emphasized that any samples or virtual instruments used must be of very high quality and highly expressive. Performances that sound mechanical, "fake," or overly quantized will not be considered. Original Compositions only, please!

IMPORTANT: This Company is extremely active and successful when it comes to landing music in major motion pictures and popular TV shows. TAXI members routinely speak highly of their transparency, professionalism, and consistent results - and we wholeheartedly agree.
This Library is hunting for Songs in the general stylistic ballpark of the following references:
"The Tears of a Clown" by The Beat
"Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)" by Haircut 100
"Sound System" by OPERATION IVY
"Rock the Casbah" by The Clash
If you’ve got authentic, well-written SKA-PUNK Songs that were recorded before 1990, this Publisher wants to hear them! They're after the real deal: original vintage recordings that fully capture the sound and spirit of the era and are authentically from the time.
Please submit original, vintage Ska/Punk Songs recorded before 1990 (give or take a few years) that showcase the raw energy, political spirit, danceable grooves, and rebel attitude that defines the genre. Your Songs should feature compelling lyrics, memorable melodies and motifs, engaging rhythms, dynamic arrangements, and strong musicianship. Instrumentation in the general stylistic ballpark of the references (electric guitar, horn sections, bass, drums, etc) will work best. Vocals (Male or Female) should be expressive, full of conviction, and genre-appropriate if you want this Publisher's attention. While studio recordings from the era are great, this Publisher has also signed raw demos and home recordings, as long as they authentically capture the spirit and sound of the time. This Publisher is passionate about discovering forgotten gems that never had their moment in the spotlight!
As long as you own or control the Master Recordings and the Compositions, you can submit for this Golden Opportunity to get PAID UPFRONT and get back-end income from any applicable Performance Royalties when the Songs are licensed! You cannot submit for friends because you need to own or control the Copyright and Masters. Have you inherited original, old recordings that a parent or grandparent created? Can you prove that you own and control their use? This Publisher is very interested in hearing those, too!
TAXI Tip: If you know someone sitting on a stash of old recordings that might qualify and they are not a TAXI member yet, please forward this to them! This is a rare chance for someone to monetize those recordings, and they may want to join TAXI to take advantage of it.
Dozens of TAXI members have signed deals and received checks from this company. Some of those checks have been in the $10,000 (or bigger!) range, depending on the catalog size and quality of the material! Many of those deals have been made with TAXI members who never could have imagined that their old recordings would be worth anything in today’s market. Surprise!
They DO NOT want ANY material that was recently recorded and made to SOUND old. They will only take AUTHENTIC, OLD RECORDINGS that were actually recorded back in the day, and have Copyright dates that prove it! Worried that your old recordings and productions might sound “lo-fi,” dated, and/or not contemporary enough? They could actually be perfect for this company! They DO NOT want slick, Pro Tools-generated recordings!
Please submit as many Songs as you’d like, online or per CD. All submissions will be screened by TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (PDT) on Monday, September 8th, 2025. TAXI # S250908UP

Join to submit Members submit here Renew your membershipLots of ‘60s-Style ROCK INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Publisher that provides music for in-store play at major retail locations around the world!
This Company is searching for Instrumentals that could be heard on a playlist with the following references:
"(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" by The Rolling Stones
"Fire" by The Jimi Hendrix Experience
"Eight Miles High" by The Byrds
Although the references have vocals, please submit INSTRUMENTALS only for this opportunity!
IMPORTANT: We think this Company would be open to both vintage material (recorded back in the '60s, give or take a few years), OR recently recorded/produced Instrumentals in the same style as the references. If you’re submitting modern material, it should convincingly mimic the sound and style of the era.
Please submit riff-driven '60s-style Rock Instrumentals that capture the raw energy, bluesy vibe, and garage-band grit of the era. Your Compositions should feature memorable melodies, '60s-flavored Rock motifs, engaging rhythms, solid musicianship, and arrangements with a sense of forward momentum. Instrumentation popular in the '60s-era Rock scene is likely to suit this request best - think fuzzy electric guitars, bass, drums, and the occasional touch of vintage organ or harmonica for flavor. Performances should feel live, loose, and full of character. If you’re using virtual instruments or samples, they must sound era-authentic and convincingly real. Playing some of your overdubs by hand could add some "human feel," as opposed to sounding quantized and obviously MIDI-driven. Original Compositions only, please!
Your submissions should be around 3 minutes long, give or take - it's fine to go a bit longer, but please don't submit four and five-minute pieces. Please do NOT copy the referenced material 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. Era-appropriate Broadcast Quality is needed.

They DO NOT want ANY material that was recently recorded and made to SOUND old. They will only take AUTHENTIC, OLD RECORDINGS that were actually recorded back in the day, and have Copyright dates that prove it!

They DO NOT want slick, Pro Tools-generated recordings!
