Pop Song Needed for Independent Film

Below is a special opportunity that we wanted to give you a heads up about. Just got the word about this project today, and need the music by 5 PM (PDT) Monday, April 2nd, 2012. You can find this listing under the Pop (Film & TV) genre in the Submit Music section of your TAXImusic.com hosting site.

Successful Hollywood Film & TV Music Production Company needs a FUN, UPTEMPO POP song a la MICHAEL FRANTI & SPEARHEAD & GIFT OF GAB - What I Got -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGcy_x1MIgs for placement in an Indie Documentary Film. Your song should have a similar VIBE, TEMPO and FEEL. It's a FEEL-GOOD, SUMMERY, BRIGHT and TOE-TAPPINGLY RHYTHMIC song. It's LIVELY and yet feels sort of LAID-BACK at the same time. The song must be at least 2 minutes long. Lyric themes should be PG-Rated and UNIVERSAL. As always, do NOT copy or rip off the referenced artist in any way, shape or form! Use it only as a guide for general texture, energy, and vibe. Broadcast quality is needed (excellent home recordings are fine.)

The ESTIMATED PAYMENT for this placement is a Festival License fee of $250-$500 with the possibility of more depending upon the success of the film. Quoting the listing company, "William Morris is representing the film and expects to be able to sell it into a limited theatrical release, and then to an HBO or Showtime type network. Once it gets sold, there could be additional license money available." You must own or control 100% of your composition and master recording. NO SAMPLES of other artists work allowed. You will keep all your publishing and writer's share - NO publisher splits on this. Please submit one to three songs online, and include lyrics. All submissions will be screened on a Yes/No basis by TAXI and must be received no later than 5 PM (PDT) Monday, April 2nd, 2012. TAXI # Y120402PO
