Licensing Company Looking For Original Music new
      #968090 - 03/02/12 02:05 PM
My company, Makin' Trax, is looking for music and songs for our two catalogues.

Our first catalogue is for members of royalty societies - ASCAP, PRS etc. and is sent out monthly to our tv, radio, film, advert and game contacts in the UK and USA. Our biggest client so far is Bauer Media. Accepted tracks will be under our non-exclusive agreement. Placements are not guaranteed.

Our second catalogue is for everyone who isn't a member of a royalty society, and is being created especially for a major TV company. The agreements run for a year at a time. These submissions must be exclusive to us and cannot be sent to any other company whilst under this contract. You cannot join a royalty society whilst your tracks are under this contract. Chances of placements are higher than normal.

Submissions to either catalogue must be 100% original (although your own recording of Public Domain pieces are fine). No cover versions. No illegal samples. Some sample cds have smallprint stating "not for production music or jingle use" or similar wording. This is Production Music so please check before you use such cds. All recordings and mixes must sound professional. Home demos that sound like home demos won't be accepted. Full vocal songs must be in tune, and if you have instrumental versions as well, that can increase the chance of someone using them.

All genres are needed, between 1 and 6 minutes in length, from basic acoustic guitar to full orchestral pieces, and from ambient to Drum n Bass.

For info on the royalty society catalogue, reply here or email adam at makin-trax dot co dot uk
Submissions should be via links - Soundcloud, Reverbnation etc. Mp3s can be sent through wetransfer.com (or any ftp service) to demo at makin-trax dot co dot uk. Please do not email mp3s directly. They will not be listened to.

Full details on the non-royalty society catalogue are here:
www dot makin-trax dot co dot uk/new-catalogue dot php
Submission details are the same, except the email address to use is pay-per-play at makin-trax dot co dot uk.

Thank you,
Adam (aka Tab)

An update - I have a new business partner and the site is being upgraded, so the site and the link in the previous post is temorarily offline - apologies.

We are still accepting songs and instrumentals for both catalogues - royalty-based and pay-per-play.

Submissions via Soundcloud \ Reverbnation \ other links, or through wetransfer or yousendit etc. to demo @ makin-trax dot co dot uk

Info available from adam @ makin-trax

Thank you

We're finishing the site now, hence the change(s)- thank you.
