      Hi,

      Just to show that theres’ some light at the end of the tunnel (music wise), i have 7 of my tracks to be featured & used by "ripcurl" (nov06)…and i was over the moon!…

      The flip side is it’s world-wide promotion but without the pay cheque….but you cant buy exposure and it will open the doors with other music licensers….

      I’m sure like many others you have been trying to get "that deal" or the "big break " for years…..and do you know what ….in all honesty ,unless your a band/artist with the potential… (just imagine "simon cowl" revieng your tunes)…it’s a much easier and potential more lucrative route to write tunes for TV,FILMS & games and the exposure can also lead to the "big break" as well.

      How many times have you heard good tunes in a commercials and then the band,artist gets somewhere beacuse of it……

      To me it makes more sense (unless your a showman) to sit back and watch the money come in…..

      As an example,the company that used my tunes got a band a deal for CSI Miami worth £27,000…pretty cool eh!

      So heed my advise…..if your heart isnt really into getting a record deal but you have great music……try approaching some music licensors…..it may pay off and open some doors….

      At least you will have something to show for your efforts…..

      ***************here’s something to get you started! :wink: *********

      The Pipiefish Media Group is looking for unique and interesting bands from all over the globe, and every style of music, be it acoustic and mellow or punky and charged and absolutely everything in between. We provide the movie soundtracks to most of the leading brands of the extreme sports world, including people like O’Neill, Billabong, Rip Curl, as well as many adverts for television. As you can imagine, bands included on these soundtracks receive a massive amount of exposure and kudos. Four bands used on these soundtracks so far have been signed up to major labels.

      Now, this isn’t going to make you rich over night. If you come across anyone offering you fame and fortune in this industry then they are having a joke. It will however raise the status of your band worldwide, and that is what leads to fame and fortune. And best of all it costs you nothing.

      So, mildly interested? What next? Well, send us a copy of your E.P to the address below. (And don’t worry, sending it to us doesn’t mean we can use it without your permission. Unlike a lot of the other sharks out there, we stay 100% above board) We will then check it out and drop you a line to discuss this opportunity. Unfortunately we cannot review MP3’s or web links emailed across.

      Many thanks for your time, we hope you have a passably good week.

      Kind Regards
