Hello, for the moment , I just have autoprod cd and I try to have contacts to work in different artistic projects, perhaps one day a short movie to begin. In the future, it could be great for me to work with movies or other artistic projects with my music. So I 'm looking for contacts to begin. Thanks for your message. Julien
Hello, thanks a lot for the comment. Excellent rythmic music with great voice and sounds in "Shiny Toy Guns Rain..." The beat is good too in the other tunes "Kaiser Chiefs Angry...", "The Twang Two Lovers", and "Allstars Thriller". Keep on writing good music. Julien
