I posted before, but we've moved forward and have a more specific message.
Got a full length romantic comedy in the can (2nd cut done), and I'm submitting the score and soundtrack in about 10 days (not much time). I am seeking bands/singers/songwriters to submit original songs for consideration for the score and/or soundtrack.
We just finished the trailer and thought you should take a look. We're very excited how it turned out.

The song used in the trailer was one of the submissions just like yours. Still plenty of opportunity, but mostly so for specific custom songs in the following subjects.
Topics are: sad love-lost song (she moved away), and few quirky happy love songs (a-la moldy peaches) and even some odd balls about cereal, being lazy, crossing guards, book stores, mailmen, having a baby, reading books, writing books, mac & cheese, roller skating, swimming pools, sleeping till noon, milkshakes, bad driving, long drives, learning to drive, taking a bath, getting ready for a date, cologne, ...
Emphasis on absurdity, uniqueness in rhythm and/or melody and happy. Happy is key. Moldy Peaches, Bon Iver, Shins, Bright Eyes, Dirty Projectors, Vampire Weekend, Modest Mouse, etc. are the emotions, depths and sounds we're looking for.
Any and all ambient, instrumental songs, sounds, clips would be considered as well. Film scores are a complex puzzle that works best when there are lots of pieces.
If any of your songs made it into even a rough cut, I'll be in touch to let you know, as well as mail you a copy.
Also, if you'd like to get more involved in the project and collaborate on the creation and production, I would welcome your participation. I have a studio in my home just outside State College. Actually, my whole home is a studio.
Thanks again, and be in touch,
Max

"This song will also be on the Sound Track.

If, musically, you could do something to the song to reflect that he changes tapes (tempo change, key change, change change), not only would that be cool, but would prove to the world that you are a musical genius.
Be crazy, be creative, be brave and be awesome."
