This genre of music has a very strong following, and we are looking for artist that can capitalize on that fact. The music has to be appeal to a general audience, there needs to be emphasis on craftsmanship, recording, production, technology, and encourage dancing, using dance-oriented beats and rhythms.
Think of Justin Bieber, Black Eye Peas, Katy Perry, LMFAO, Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, OneRepublic, 'N Sync, Backstreet Boys, Madonna, Bruno Mars, Beyonce, Prince, Adele, Rihanna, Maroon 5, Shakira, Chris Brown, Christina Aguilera, and David Guetta. If your music is half as good as the aforementioned artist, we certainly want to hear from you!
We guarantee feedback on all submissions! In most cases, four songs need to be submitted and selected specifically for this opportunity before we can offer a publishing/licensing deal. We are always looking for hot new talent, artists, producers, and bands that want to put their music out through various means of music licensing, major placements, and digital distribution. We are signing artist now, and you could be next!
If selected, you may be asked to submit up to three more songs for further evaluation

We are in need of Alt Rock tracks for a film placement. If you have some amazing tracks and songs in this genre, send them over! Preferably looking for full songs with either male or female vocals or both. Songs can be about any subject matter as long as they aren't so specific that their use would be limited. For instance, if lyrics talk about a specific year or event in pop culture or history or mention being in a specific city or country, that may limit our ability to use the song.

We are looking for great Hard Rock Anthems for pitching to CBS Sports and Fox Sports for the upcoming NFL season. Songs should be current sounding and compare to leading artists and songs in the genre.

If we think your submission may fit, we will place it on hold for further review by the entire team working on this project. If it is selected, we will contact you further with details.

Please keep in mind that this is a “submission-only” dropbox. We are looking for the perfect song for this pitch. We will not be giving detailed feedback on submissions. Either we feel the song may fit the brief or it doesn’t. We apologize for not being able to give feedback beyond whether it fits or not, but the time constraints of the nature of these projects will not allow us the time to give in-depth feedback on the song. We will, however, submit ratings on every submission.

We have noticed a repeating trend in the music requests we receive from our partners in the advertising world and therefor we would like to enrich our catalog with more positive, optimistic and stimulating songs.

The genre is not really important as long as the song has a bright, uplifting feel and the tempo is medium to high. Possible lyrical directions could be: We can do it, On top of the world, Winning, Don’t give up, The best, The time of my life, Unbeatable, Life is good, So happy etc.

Please submit only professionally recorded and mastered songs. The best submissions will be included in our catalog for licensing which is available to our network of contacts in the film, TV and advertising industry.

As an added bonus, if your song is Selected, we will offer to release your music on Filter Label.
