Looking for: Songs with a dark and moody atmosphere, capturing deep emotions that resonate with listeners. The focus is on music that conveys themes of pain, longing, inner turmoil, and emotional struggle, with an emphasis on strong lyrical content and evocative melodies. Styles can range from Alternative, Indie, Rock, and Pop to darker shades of Singer-Songwriter and Electronic music.

Vocal performances should be expressive, delivering raw emotion with authenticity. Instrumentation can vary, but arrangements should support the intensity of the theme without becoming overly busy. Sparse, intimate productions can be as effective as layered, dynamic compositions. All tempos are considered, as long as the music carries a weighty emotional presence.

Songs should be well-produced, with high-quality recordings that allow the emotion to come through clearly. The ability to create a visceral connection between the music and the listener is essential. Both male and female vocals are accepted. Music that stands out for its ability to evoke strong feelings of sorrow, regret, mystery, or despair is particularly welcome.

This is for placement in television and film, where emotionally charged music is required to enhance storytelling. Submissions should be original, with no uncleared samples.
