I know its a "one shot in 2 million" but I need to start somewhere. I've read all the industry standard books etc.. I want to know the methods people here have used. I'm not expecting to be the next Mike Oldfield or Moby..but it would be nice to hear my tracks as background for commercials, television, etc. Please list your proven methods and sucsess/failure stories about TAXI or any other service. I plan on having a "4 track" sampler EP finished by summer. I'm hoping to have Sterling master the tracks. Listen here for an example of my work (it's unmastered...and in mid quality MP3 format) http://web.mac.com/a.daleclark/iWeb/...0Whispers.html
any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I joined TAXI years ago-wound up on tour-never used it.
I've worked in broadcast/scoring over the years-so I never had a need for an agent.
Im listening to your stuff-its ver good-it may have an application.
I feel with any of these middle man operations--its the same-they throw alot stuff out-the returns are nominal...they still get their 500$ registration fee--AND they give you a critique
--'not enuff melody'--lyrics should be better......
I can honestly tell ya-suceeding in the biz seems to be mainly 'gettin' in the door-being discovered-being prepared.
If you have any stuff you want an honest opinion on email me-you can
hear my score stuff at my web-under TV music too
good luck
