First TAXI Forward

I joined TAXI last month. Basically you pay them to become a member and in return they tell you what companies (music libraries, record labels, publishers, etc.) are searching for what types of music, review music you submit to them, and forward suitable submissions on to those companies.

This week I got my first piece forwarded through! The listing called for instrumentals for a music studio that works on corporate documentaries for such clients as Adobe, Nikon, Wired and more. Its called "Greenland", You can check it out HERE. Hopefully they'll want to use it.

New York

So I've graduated and moved to New York city. Hopefully everything will happen quickly and exactly as I've always dreamed.
