Playful Pop/Electronica Songs needed by A-List Music Supervisor

Below is a special opportunity that we wanted to give you a heads up about. Just got the word about this project today, and they need the music by MONDAY, APRIL 16TH, AT 10AM. You can find this listing under the Pop (Film & TV) genre in the Submit Music section of your TAXImusic.com hosting site.

UPBEAT, FLIRTY, PLAYFUL POP/ELECTRONICA SONGS and INSTRUMENTALS needed by an A-LIST MUSIC SUPERVISOR on a HUGE cable network! They're working on a reality show that focuses on Mature, Interesting Women of Means (that means Money $$). Think of women in their late 30's / early 40's dating and having fun! Music should be SOPHISTICATED, HIP, and SLEEK! They're NOT looking for Rock or anything too girly or young sounding!

To get you in the ballpark, check out:
"Bulletproof" by La Roux
"Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen
"Stronger" by Kelly Clarkson
"Playgirl" by Ladytron
"Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics

Be SURE to listen to the referenced artists before submitting your music, and as always, DO NOT rip them off in any way, shape or form! Keep submissions POSITIVE, NOT dark or moody. Retro touches are okay (in the spirit of Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams"...because that song is such a classic) but keep the PRODUCTION CONTEMPORARY. Broadcast Quality is needed (excellent home recordings are fine.) This means keep the lyrics CLEAN and TV appropriate - NO EXPLETIVES! All songs MUST be well produced, preferably with finessed samples and customized loops. Male or Female vocals are both okay.

You must own 100% of your Composition and Master Recording. NO samples of other artists' work can be incorporated into your song. Please include lyrics! There may or may not be upfront sync money on these placements, but the winning songs will be used non-exclusively. You will keep 50% of the publishing and 100% of the writer's share on any placements. These placements have good back-end potential -- especially if the show is a hit -- as these types of shows often air repeatedly in many different countries! ALL SUBMISSIONS WILL BE SCREENED ON A YES/NO BASIS by people HAND-PICKED by the network. No full critiques from TAXI. Submissions must be received no later than MONDAY, APRIL 16TH, AT 10AM.
