Composers Drive Composers are exposed to many opportunities, from TV, FILM and Trailers, to publishing and management. Composers often have many different pieces of music and hundreds if not thousands of cues in their own library. Drive Music's Electronic Press Kit can hold your library as well as make it very easy to submit any one of the cues at any moment, with just a few clicks. Most our opportunities are directed at specific genres, but composers have the distinct advantage of being able to submit to multiple genres and music types. This gives the composers so many more opportunities to place their music on a regular basis. Our close relationships with Directors, Producers, Production houses, Trailer Houses, Agencies, etc. give Drive Composers other opportunities to work on many different types of projects. Our composers have gone on to bigger and better projects after just submitting a few cues. Drive Music also provides other opportunities to get get our composers heard. We place composers into Publishing Libraries for our composers. We want to maximize the amount of exposure for you as the composer. International Artists For our international artists, it doesn’t matter where you live- you can submit to any of our opportunities. We take music from all over the world as long as they are right for the project. There are many artists/composers that live all over the world so your opportunities to submit to them are as good as if you lived in our own backyard. A majority of our listings are within the US but we also get requests for music that are from productions that are occurring in other countries. This means that you can submit to the music supervisors we work with, festivals, labels, radio and other promotional opportunities. Our submissions are very simple as well. Once you are a member, you will be able to submit the songs from your profile with just a few clicks. This makes the song submission EASY!!! Some of the projects that come up need music IMMEDIATELY, and so this system makes it possible for Drive Music artists to submit to these opportunities.

It takes a great deal of time and energy to find that "perfect song" (almost as much as writing it!) and companies look to reliable and trusted sources to find it. Drive Music makes finding music for any project an easy, and hassle free experience for industry’s professionals. Q: Does Drive Music work with anyone else in the industry other than record labels?

Q: What type of music does Drive Music look for? A: Most Importantly Great Songs! Drive Music places and develops material from every genre imaginable. The more diversity and material we have to work with, the more placements we can make for our members. Q: What’s wrong with purchasing directories online and submitting my music myself? A: You can but there's one thing you can't get from any directory or a crypt sheet: actual contacts! Drive Music can guarantee that the right people will hear your music because companies trust our services. Our staff of industry professionals and tastemakers saves you hundreds of dollars in postage and time invested in cold-calling numerous companies. Industry companies and professionals usually have exclusive ways of obtaining clients. Being a Drive Music member will guarantee that your material will never be thrown in to the dreaded UNSOLICITED pile. Q: How good do my demos have to be? A: So what if your song wasn't laid down with 98 separate audio tracks and the backup of the L.A. Philharmonic Orchestra? Many members of our A&R crew are musicians themselves and they understand that high-quality music doesn't necessarily equate with high-quality engineering standards (just ask The White Stripes). Q: Will Drive Music consider every song I submit? A: Of course! We will consider all songs according to their compatibility with our current projects. With on demand consulting, you can also use Drive Music as a sounding board for guidance and feedback on the NEW material you’re constantly slaving away at.

Drive Music allows you to utilize your entire catalog of works to be considered for every opportunity. Q: If my music is submitted to an opportunity what are my chances of it getting picked up? A: That all depends on what music was requested for the project and how fitting your submission is. We have built a reputation for sending music that "fits" and that is why we have to listen to the music. However, the right music will prevail.
