Help! I Need Music for a TV Pilot!

So. It's been ages since I've posted on the OCR forums, and I don't even know if this is the right place to post this, let alone whether I'm a tool for even posting it. But you know what, I'm going to go ahead anyway.

Right, so, I'm currently in the last few days of preproduction on a low, low budget TV pilot that I wrote and will be directing; it will also be submitted to the New York Television Festival. It involves superheroes and comedy! It is pretty sweet and/or lame.

The quality of the concept, etc. notwithstanding, though, it occurred to me that the finished project would have an infinitely better chance at seeming palatable if it had some totally quality music to go along with it. Annnnd that's where this shameless request comes in.

I have zero musical talent, so I need some original music to go along with my TV pilot. Any kind that fits, really. And unfortunately, it'd be for free for now, since I have almost no money, and the rest is being sunk into the shoot itself. But I'm also the sort of person who would pay retroactively if the thing got bought, as sort of giant thank-you! I dunno. You see where I'm going with this.

So once again, sorry for just slapping an ad up here, and for being a cheap jerk who can't actually pay for help. But if you're crazy or just philanthropic, pleasepleaseplease let me know!

You surely can. It's a comedy with a tone similar to Flight of the Conchords with a splash of Scrubs thrown in. There's a lot of goofy, silly bits, but also a few quiet moments thrown in. It's looking to be between 30 and 40 minutes long, if the length of the script is any indication.

The pilot follows a superhero named The Sex and his sidekick, The Rack. The Sex is a loud, arrogant, overconfident, and somewhat sexist hero, which stands in contrast to his alter-ego, Andy, who is quiet, polite, and generally a very sweet guy. The Rack is very intelligent, and also a raging feminist; her alter-ego, Meredith (or Mere) is just about the same. Together they save the city from all sorts of villainy. In this particular episode, they have to defeat The Inventress and her giant robot from messing up the place.

I'm incredibly open to styles of music. I wouldn't immediately thing of any sort of loud electronic styles as expected, but if it fits, I'm game. Anything upbeat, really.

I sound like I don't know what I want, but that's, as I've mentioned before, because I'm a desperate fool who knows very, very little about music.
