I'm curious as to how much material you have listed at Pump, if you 
don't mind sharing.

They have about 130 cues of mine in their catalog, assuming it all made the cut for quality-control or useability.? I don't know how many of those are in the Pump Box though.? My guess is that I probably have about 20 cues in the widely-distributed Pump Box, and if people are doing a show that would use more of an instrumental style of music, the music supervisors at Pump would update their pump boxes to include a more expanded range of material, and my other stuff would likely fall into that category.?? 

Most of the action i've seen has been for a handful of about 10 particular cues.?? Most of what I write is orchestral/instrumental in nature... some dramatic-type stuff, some cutesy stuff like you'd hear as score on a show like "The OC" and some architectural-type instrumental stuff.? I don't venture into pop or rock or anything like that.?? I have some of the stuff on iTunes if you want to hear some nifty 30-second bite-sized snippets of it.

In the bigger picture of library deals, I've been happy with Pump Audio and I look on it as "found money" that supplements the scoring gigs and promo licenses.? Compared to many other libraries out there, their deal for composers is a good one.

Mixed genres, or is most of your material a particular style? What seems 
to sell and what seems to sit there and earn you nothing?

...just curious.
