Simply: I need your music. Send it to me.

I'm finished editing my movie and I'm plugging in temporary music until my musician friends come up with stuff to replace it, so if anyone has anything that they'd like to submit, please shoot me a PM or email me at imonfirefilm@gmail.com. I'm looking for a total of about 50 songs of most genres. The only rules are:

1: Nothing too loud and abrasive. A little loud and a little abrasive is okay.
2: It has to be a good quality recording.
3: If your song is picked to be used, you will receive a DVD copy of the movie.

Here's a rough cut of the opening title sequence, dumbed down for youtube, in case you're curious:

Thanks!

50 songs seems like a whole lot for a movie, even a feature length one.

Nate: Yeah, but I'm doing something specific with them. There's a big party scene and a poker scene, and I'm having the music come from inside the movie, like we're hearing it play on the stereo off screen, so there's going to be tons of snippets of songs throughout the movie. I think 50 isn't too much of an overestimate.

Tobii: Yeah, they're photogenic and you can apply all sorts of symbolism to them.

I've worked on that Counting Crows song a little. I'll just do a quick youtube video of it and have you listen before i actually go record it

Sam: I just exported a copy of the movie for you, I'll try and burn it and get the DVD in the mail tonight or tomorrow.

Giggan: Argh?

I just recorded 1:29 of whispering "wind turbines" but I'm too lazy to convert it.
