Jazz Songs Needed for Indie Film with Major Studio Distribution

Below is a special opportunity that we wanted to give you a heads up about. Just got the word about this project today, and TAXI needs the music by NOON (PDT) on Thursday, March 29, 2012. You can find this listing under the Jazz (Film & TV) genre in the Submit Music section of your TAXImusic.com hosting site.

SMOKEY, SULTRY, DARK JAZZ SONGS with VOCALS in the style of Billie Holiday, needed by the Music Supervisor for a horror film with supernatural overtones based in/around a hidden mansion! Songs submitted ABSOLUTELY MUST fit with a Billie Holiday type sound. THINK: HAUNTING, SUBTLE, SOMBER, RAINY-DAY type tracks with smooth vocals that can provide the perfect eerie quality to specific scenes. Vocals, lyrics, and production MUST all be as authentic and believable as possible!

NO profanity, NO current lingo, NO lyrics that are too literal. This is a non-exclusive license and the opportunity for songs to be considered for use in the trailer for the film. We recently ran this as Dispatch #D120314JZ, and the music supervisor would like to hear more material. If you submitted to the Dispatch listing, please send in new songs this time around. As always, vocal and instrumental performances MUST be top-notch. Excellent performances are absolutely necessary. You must own 100% of your master recording and publishing. Broadcast quality needed (excellent home recordings are fine.) Please submit one to three songs online or per CD, include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a YES/NO BASIS - NO CRITIQUES FROM TAXI - and must be received no later than NOON (PDT) on Thursday, March 29, 2012. TAXI #Y120329JZ.

TAXI, 5010 N. Parkway Calabasas, Suite 200, Calabasas, CA 91302, USA
