Looking for exposure on our channels? We promise to give feedback on all submissions, suggesting ways to enhance your work for a greater chance of being featured or guidance on your next steps.
YOU HAVE THREE OPTIONS TO JOIN OUR COMMUNITY
ADVERTISE
Our advertising option ensures your presence on our channels.
However, we will transparently include a small and unobtrusive
indicator to signify that it is an advertisement. Check our
price list for further details.
Press release
Our press release option will appear on our website
and be submitted to various music news blogs that may decide
to pick up your story. Similar to a Cision blast or press push,
our press release system will display your article on our site
while granting you the opportunity to reach other blogs
and media outlets. Check our pricing for more information.
Submit
Submissions go directly to our editorial team for review.
After this, you will receive a comprehensive review of your song,
story, article, or release and the chance to be featured
on our blog or playlist. Although we cannot guarantee
your feature, you will receive an impartial and sincere evaluation
of your work to assist you in climbing the ladder of your career.
Each submission will receive a response, and you can reply with any inquiries, comments, or specific requests.
Our team will respond within 48 hours for general inquiries.
Please note the following submission rules
- Original music only: We only accept original music submissions. Please do not submit unauthorized covers, remixes, or samples.
- Mastered music: We are looking for professionally recorded, mixed, and mastered tracks.
- Complete tracks: Please send us full-length tracks to give us a comprehensive understanding of your music style.
- Correct file format: Please submit your music in either MP3 or WAV format. If it is already distributed,
