TAXI MusicReviews of taxi.com

I've been a member of Taxi for just under three years at this point - the learning experience is multi-faceted; folks from many backgrounds and levels of experience all come together to support each other. Truly a pay-it-forward community. My successes have been stepping stones in the right direction, and I am gaining traction where I never would be able to from my location far away from L.A.

A true sanctuary of the music industry. They've been around for 30+ years and they've been a beacon of connecting music creators with a dream and no connections to music executives in search of music. They provide so much mentorship and access, especially at their free 4 day convention in LA every November. Nothing compares to TAXI!

I've been with Taxi for many years now and if it wasn't for Taxi, I wouldn't have learned about writing for sync and have the many placements I do now. The annual Road Rally convention alone is worth the membership fee. The offer tons of education with a forum, Taxi TV, and the Road Rally convention. Like anything else, you get what you put into it, nothing is an instant path to stardom or success. They provide great tools if you use them. As Abe Lincoln once said, "Don't believe everything you read on the Internet".

As soon as you start submitting music and you get their pro feedback, it'll put you on the path you need to be on with your music. They give you so much more than what it costs you.

If you're serious about making music at a professional level, either a song writer, artist or composer, then TAXI is right up there for getting into the business. It has to be remembered that there is no easy path into professional music and there are no guarantees either, but if you are serious about giving it a go, I would say TAXI is one of the best ways to progress.

I appreciate Taxi for their Quick Responses, Kind and Thoughtful Feedback on submissions and for being proficient and knowledgeable about the craft of songwriting, sound and production.

They provide a service and do what they say. The rest is up to you. Invaluable IMHO.

Some of these reviews just boggle the mind. Taxi is a completely legitimate company, to say otherwise is foolish. I can only guess that it’s the reviewers expectations that are clouding their judgement. Film and TV sync is very competitive and you must get used to rejection as it never goes away, regardless of your level of success. Taxi basically offers it’s members two things. The first is listings from music libraries or music supervisors looking for music. You pay $5 per song to submit (if they didn’t charge a nominal fee members would overwhelm them with submissions). Do they reject a majority of the submissions? Yes. IMO probably too much, however that is them trying to protect their brand - they want these music libraries and music supervisors to keep using their services successfully. It’s completely above board and the success stories are real. The second thing they offer their members is a free ticket to their annual convention. I joined 15 years ago and It took me 5 years to attend this event for the first time. I’ve been every year since. That’s me flying from Toronto to LA and spending 5 nights at the Westin LAX, so a commitment of time and money. The Taxi Rally conference brings together a group of like minded people who share information and inspire each other to be better. The networking opportunities are awesome. If don’t go at least once, then you’re wasting your membership fee. So if we’re rating things, I give them 5 stars for their conference and 3 stars for their listings.
