Second attempt at a dramedy cue

copyright © 2020 by Michael Hurwicz and Sharon Abreu

DRAMEDY INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a great Music Library with International Distribution and lots of success in Film and TV placements.

This Library is looking for Instrumental Cues in the stylistic ballpark of the following references:

"Lurking Sloth" by Alexander Nakarada

March of the Spoons" by Kevin MacLeod

The Drunken Socialite" by Steve Barden

Please submit well-produced Dramedy Instrumental Cues with a comedic, quirky, sneaky, or mischievous vibe. Any one of those attributes, or a combo of them could work. You'd be wise to craft your submissions around a singular mood and motif, and create a sense of dynamics and forward momentum by layering instrumentation in and out as they progress. You can use a variety of instrumentation (pizzicato strings, glockenspiel, horns, etc.), but please avoid anything so busy that it could interfere with a scene's dialog. Remember, less is often more for these types of Cues!

All submissions should be about 2 minutes long (give or take), with non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings. Do NOT copy the references in any way, shape, or form. Use them only as a general guide for tempo, tone, texture, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed.
