What to Expect When You're Expecting
Jimmy HONORE was the senior vice president of production at Sony/Columbia film studios. He
brought my music and package cd into Sony and personally presented the demo For the Ghostbusters
3 soundtrack to the head of music. He got back to my Company with great news saying that Several
people listened and liked it, and that the movie was being put on hiatus until they could resolve Bill
Murray's participation. I was told to resubmit it at the appropriate time, when it went back into
production.
Unfortunately, when the movie went back into production, Jimmy Honore was retired and had lost his
entrée to the music department.

10. Emma Lock:
As mentioned before He and Emma Lock teamed up. He is currently working on a song called
Guardian and L.O.V.E and various remixes with the Prolific Singer Song-Writer Emma Lock
who hit the Electronic Dance scene in 2010, wowing dance music lovers with her angelic divine
Vocals, infectious Melodies and flawless Lyrics. Guardian has been featured on a couple of
Radio Stations and a few Record Labels were interested in signing the track as well as other`s
Maestro produced. He and Emma are currently working on more songs together and are
looking for an album deal with the right Record Label.
Emma is known for her song ‘Save Me’ that smashed into the #1 slot on Beat port and
Audio Jelly Charts, alongside DJ/Producer Andrew Chen aka DJ Shogun. Signed to Armada
Music, and heavily supported by Armin Van Buuren on ‘A State of Trance Radio’, ‘Save Me’ topped
the charts for 5 weeks whilst clubbers around the world united, raising their hands and singing
along in support. Emma was voted in as “future-favored. “With 18 hits released since 2010,
Emma Lock has worked with a number of established and upcoming DJ’s and producers. Tracks like
‘Hiding to Nothing’ were included on the ‘In Trance We Trust” CD in 2011. ‘Cut and Run’ with Beat
Service was personally chosen to go on ‘A State of Trance' in 2011 by Armin Van Burren.To date,
Emma Lock is featured and collaborated on more than 80 track collaborations. “George
Acosta, Feat Emma Lock’s “Never Fear” is #13 in Billboard’s dance-club Chart with a
bullet! Emma wrote this song and many others that chart on Billboard.
11. Maestro is working on an album titled From Dusk Till Dawn. He is also working with various
singers and Producers. His music has been played on a couple of Radio stations. Roger Goode
played a song he produced called Jaws Remix on Radio 5. Africa was played on Mutha Fm.
Flying Cobra was showcased in a couple of clubs including some Uk one`s. Guardian was
played on another 3 Radio Stations and a few Record Labels were interested in signing the
track as well as other`s Maestro produced.
He recently got offered the position of Vice President for Equinox Recordings and He and the
owner are also producing some songs together. They have a few dance songs in the pipeline
including Je Bent Mooi a dance track they are working on. He is also now a Co Owner of the
Label.
He was contacted by Rhinosilver Entertainment a USA based company to work together on
different projects and music. They offered him a Sony/Ioda deal for his music and he will
produce music for their artists.
He has a daily growing Fan base as you can see from the Snaps hots and have even more Fans
at this present moment in time.
Imagine a full Orchestra on stage combining classical music with dance as a concept. Having dancers
on stage like ballroom dancing, Africa da ncers and so on. Imagine a stage performance where you
progress thru all the different areas in music and times and eras. Imagine a Fred Astaire song like
singing in the rain then turning into a dance tune. Maybe a remix of a legend like Nat King Cole. Dark
intro`s like resident evil going into a stage performance. Opera singers on stage. The goal is to think
out of the box and do concepts that will bring the paying public. We can even focus on dance but with
various genres included. Look at what Robert Miles did with his song children. He made Platypuss
Records into what it is today, an Empire.
I need to get my Music placed with major artists and in films, soundtracks and for games. If possible I
would need management for Maestro as well as a good Record Label. I produce Urban POP and many
more styles including Dance. I see myself on stage with a DJ and singer and the concepts I described
above. I am a versatile music producer and can produce any style of music. I do not want to limit
myself to producing only one style . I want to do music for films, games and so on. With the right
people behind me I want to win Awards and be in all the charts with every single song working
together as a unit like a well-oiled machine. We are going for gold not silver. I have this outlook on
life; if one thing does not happen I do not cry and focus on the next. Failure is not an option I will
even consider myself. I have been told I can be a force to be reckoned with in the USA and abroad.
They are not wrong and it will happen.
12. I want to get signed to a USA or International record label as well. I have music ready and a catalogue
with various productions. I also did all the music for the Movie Zombie land or any other Horror movie
or game for that matter and am ready with the material so it can be pre sented and used in various
film and game soundtracks. I am also willing to work with other producers and artists from various
labels and companies in order to have hit songs. I lo ve creating and if a Label likes what they hear
they can also remix the songs or mix it as they see fit. Maybe they like one of the songs although it is
not their genre and go wow this could be wicked a s a dance song for example.
Here are links to various styles of music in my catalogue all neatly categorized so even if
you do not like the style of music I hope you enjoy listening to the creativity in the
compositions.

This is just some of the feedback I have received.
Robbie Lock (Producer at Soviet Recordings)
I like that old-school vibe it’s got with guardian, kind of cross trance n dance plus Emma`s vocals
adds so much seduction to the track which gives it much more dimension ... love that epic feel it has
on Rider dance with the glorious piano riff which stands out a mile, sticks in your mind as well real
nice gated synth with a driven bass line makes it really danceable but it’s this beautiful piano melody
which makes that track for me really nice.
Suzy Solar (Top USA Dance DJ featured on Paul Oaken fold’s Grammy nominated album
"Cream fields)
Right on:) I'll be looking forward to the finished version. Please send it my way so I can support it:)
cheers!
I have great support from some Top Dj`s and music producers. And then of course all my
