Pentangle summoned me here. Good day, U1K, and spectacular sounders.
Any whales here, btw?

I was watching end of the effing world last night and of course it's got all these great picks and uses a ton o music - how do u get that gig? hah

That's always been my dream job. Musical director or consultant to a movie or TV show, etc.
Mind you, it'd probably be pretty odd and I'd probably get fired.
Avatar 1:29pm
Ursula1000:

it's probably people who were in the licensing world via a publishing company and wormed their way into it.

Now I wanna write a chris morris style show about a music director on a tv show or movie maybe a comic book. played by Matt Berry of course

IFC has been showing reruns of Toast of London. So good! Yes I can hear you Clem Fandango!
  1:33pm
ARB:

I think the job has much more to do with licensing and editing than selecting, I've looked into it here also. My dream job too! I sold my spare lap steel on Craigslist to a woman who runs a film tv music editing company and when she picked up the guitar i picked her brain about it.

Power and wifi got cut in my neighborhood but I'm listening out of my phone at least

Mr Fab:

This late '60s/early '70s hippie noize is the pre-metal they used to call "acid rock" back then. I think it was Rich who remembered that older folks used to use that term for any loud hard rock, usually in pretty disparaging terms. Did 'the kids' actually use the term acid-rock?
Avatar 1:36pm
Ursula1000:

I get these briefings every other day from my digital distributor for tracks people are looking to license and at least 80% of them are looking for covers of popular songs or like somber melancholic versions of 80s songs! haha Its so dumb. Licensing has got super lazy in the past like 6 years or so. Not adventurous at all
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:37pm

I love Matt Berry. Also Chris Morris.

@mr fab proto metal! haha

Martinibomb:

with music in film/tv I wonder how long till we get away from using the Rolling Stones for so much.. and there are certain songs that are just so cliche that they've been using for like 40+ years u all know what I mean
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:39pm
Rich in Washington:

My job sometimes has me listening to production music for video production and sometimes I get solicitations from production houses - and by houses, I mean the home of some guy named Sergei in Ukraine.
Avatar 1:39pm
Mr Fab:

"somber melancholic versions of 80s songs! haha Its so dumb." Oi, so many shows use these, sung by female singers I've heard called "waifs" since so they all sound so weak and sad. Some really ludicrous '80s covers out there, almost unrecognizable at time.
  1:39pm
Martinibomb:

plus with film/tv they use placeholder music so like Ursula is saying they want you to kinda cover these songs/ghost them
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:40pm
Rich in Washington:

Yeah, certain songs are obligatory. Especially sixties songs. The Forrest Gump soundtrack being a great example of a really unimaginative selection.
  1:40pm
Martinibomb:

Exactly!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:41pm
Rich in Washington:

But it's sort of like impossible to have one of those fifties inspired retro diners without a picture of Elvis, Marilyn, James Dean, ad nauseum.

Ursula1000:

I "almost" attempted a melancholic version of Bananarama's Cruel Summer but I just couldn't do it! Too ridiculous.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:42pm
Rich in Washington:

Mad Men was sort of clever in its musical choices without going really deep or outre.
  1:42pm
ARB:

Never heard "waifs" used that way but i get it. I've always lumped it in to "cry baby" music but cry baby is men too. Now I can use waif wave

you are to be commended U1K for not making more waif-wave (heh, gotta use that term now)

almost over.. if only you'd expanded to two hours! We'd only be half way thru the show. And by the way... I think 2 hrs is the perfect amount of time for a radio show.

acid = drone? it has that kind of texture to it
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:57pm
Sem:

Crosby wanted Mitchell to sound pure and natural, so he asked her to sing into the studio grand piano, and set up extra microphones to capture her voice reverberating off the strings; unfortunately the set-up captured too much ambient noise, resulting in excessive tape hiss, which could only be removed post-production at the cost of the high sounds in the audio range, which gives the album a flat feel
  1:57pm
Domenic:

One hour shows are nice... leave them wanting more....
Avatar 1:57pm
Ursula1000:

would luv to cover this inna shoegaze way
  1:58pm
Martinibomb:

to me that's the texture many *acid* songs have in common
