My name is Dave Walton and I team also give me helpful, detailed feedback. Finally, a way to make sure my music gets competitive and stays that way. TAXI's Forum and online community is second to none. I've made life-long friends who've helped me make my music contemporary and helped me with the business side of the music business as well. By building an incredible network of fellow members, I've collaborated, met publishers, signed more deals and learned the skills I needed to branch out and make my own music industry contacts. I recently finished scoring my 15th Independent Film! I became a computer programmer in 1986 and thought my career in music was finished, over, kaput! 18 years later I decided to return to my first love and take my shot at becoming a Film and TV music composer. If your town is anything like mine, there aren't a lot of movies or TV shows getting produced there. Actually.... none! I had no idea how to make music industry contacts or place my music in films or TV shows until I searched the Internet and found TAXI. You've Got to Have Friends... Music Industry Contacts... Not! Today, I'm a full-time Film and Television Music composer because of deals, placements and relationships I've made through TAXI. My music has been on ABC, CBS, NBC, ABC Family, Spike TV, the Inspiration Channel, the Hallmark Channel and BET. In 2008 alone I had 161 placements on Network Television and my royalties are coming in from the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Finland, Sweden, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. I love mailbox money! TAXI was the first tool I found to build my career in the music business, and it's the one I'd never give up. Without TAXI, I'd still be working at my day job. If you've been reading these ads year after year but waiting to join when your music is ready, wait no more! Join TAXI now and let them help you make it ready. Living the Dream Getting Paid for My Music Rather than trying to cold call music supervisors and producers in Hollywood, TAXI reverses the process and tells me what they currently need. I get tons of Film and TV opportunities for my music and the experts on TAXI's A&R They Show You What Hollywood Needs The World's Leading Independent A&R Company 1-800-458-2111 taxi.indd 1 4/12/09 15:54:04
