50 Central & American Ripper

50 Cent's show "50 Central" used a lot of my music last Fall. The Episode "Juice on the Loose" used the cue "The Shadows". Airing on MTV2, VH1 and BET several times in the Fall, the show resulted in a nice payday for me this month. History Channel's "American Ripper" is another one that appeared several times in the Fall and had a decent amount of my music in it. The Episode "Devil in the Details" in one of two episodes from the series with my music. "Ice Cold Killers" episode "Open Season" on Discovery Investigates also had music by me. My cue "Creeping Doom" had a nice size chuck of time in the series Fatal Attractions episode "Cry in the Dark". The series uses "Creeping Doom" a lot in their shows. The cue is perfect for thrillers!

April 2018 Production Music Sampler

Today was cue upload day. New cues were uploaded to Jingle Punks and processed. I then created a sampler to upload to soundcloud.com  https://soundcloud.com/rmreifenstein/april-2018-production-music-sampler Give it a listen and if you interested in any of those cues then get over to www.jinglepunks.com and look those cues up in the Jingle Player. I took a look at Band Labs version of Cakewalk today. I think the best thing is they included the TH3 guitar amp and FX simulator. It sounds great! The downside is it suffers from the same problems that the former Cakewalk did. After about 6 hrs it starts to hang. You could be in the middle of a session and it locks up. Waiting doesn't help. You eventually have to kill the process in task manager. Too bad.
Planning on making changes to my websites. This being one of them. I want to add music cues and videos. I'm doing a lot more on Instagram as well so look me up there as well. If you just search Rick Reifenstein you'll find me. Not too many folks with that name. Music news. Landed a nice placement in HBO's Vice News Tonight. I also started a new composing schedule in the studio which will increase the music output. Basically in February I decided to focus just on my Production Music composing. I can get easily distracted by offers to compose music for special projects. While that's cool and I will still evaluate projects case by case, I'm not going to be actively searching for them. I'm really concentrating on increasing my output. I'm really trying to saturate the Jingle Punks library with my cues. Right now Jingle Punks is the best way to license my stuff for projects. It makes the process clean and easy for all parties. Gotta run. More later. Links to n
