Good Honest Response from Ron @ Blazetrack,who freely admits most submissions are not good enough,and the examples given,young producers who have worked at their craft obviously,and seem to be committed to their craft,but two examples of a couple of r'n'b producers ,current tho' they may be,hardly covers the full Gamut of the music business.Personally i would like to see more examples,covering a full range of genre of music,(perhaps in time who knows)but i would guess,even the examples you have here,tho' no doubt it is a great experience for them,they will struggle to get a placement on a major artistes release,their best shot is probably to find an up and coming artist,and climb alongside them,and make their own identity,and i would imagine talking and working with these guys would only make them more determined,but whether Blazetrack is the route for the normal "married man" songwriter,i would have to say,it has a lot to prove yet,but in saying that,your response to the issues brought up on the board,well that has to be respected,especially your honesty...Cheers.. Terry... Terry, I agree and yes it does not look like anyone's hiding anything or it's something we don't already know about. And Ron made sense, really when someone is not meant to do or be something they may bail out on it. Especially when it costs money! I say with all respect to hopes and dreams "Please do, bail"  The biggest problem for the married stay at home song writer guy is he's married and has to stay home LOl. No but that there are specific submissions to cater to, here's what's good about certain ones.. You dont have to be the artist.... especially when they are looking for "Songs" So right there age and looks and sex appeal is out. While I posses the last two things anyway even at this dis-eater stage of what I call a life LOL. I want those things out of the picture.  We just can't write or present out material as though we were old married men lol. Some guy I submitted to thought I was 20 and the manager of 4 bands. He wanted there songs... I said sorry no bands no manager all me.....  The BIGGESET concern before anything is.... 1- Getting and being good enough and prepared. Work wise and mentally. 2- Realizing where you are at and what your trying to do, matching up with something or somebody else. Song matches artist or request. Most of the submissions are in the world of Hip Hop / Dance. So you have to contend with that in ALL aspects of the Music/Entrainment Biz. If that's not your bag you either search for the other submissions or make alterations or variations of your work. The first ones easier. It's just whats most popular and it seems it's never what your doing at the moment right?
