Submitting Music for Consideration

Podcasting is as much a big deal as is copyright infringement! The last thing I want is to get into trouble for playing a song that I'm not allowed to play. Therefore, in order to appear on the show, musicians have to follow a few simple rules.

The easiest way for me to be able to play your stuff on the show is for you to become a member of the Podsafe Music Network. This entirely free service is a fantastic resource for bands and musicians. Whether you upload a few tracks or a whole CD, you make it easy for podcasters and music fans to find and download your music. Podcasters can download whatever music they choose and use it to create their shows. Listeners can browse and buy music as well. If you're interested in joining the Podsafe Music Network, send me a link to your page once you're set up. If you're already a member, send me the link to your page right now.

You do not have to do this if you don't want to. However, I will only accept music submissions from individuals who I know are representing their own music. If you have a MySpace, contact me on MySpace under your band's account. The same goes for your website. Contact me using your band's email address. I have to know that it's the actual band contacting me and not an impersonator. Also, please make sure that you're allowed to play your music on a podcast and that there aren't any restrictions in any contract you might have prohibiting you from doing so.

I'm trying to cover all of my bases here, and I think this process does a fairly good job. Also, I've said it before but it bears repeating, this podcast is a hobby and is in no way an attempt at making money.

Thank you for your subscriptions and interest and for making this podcast come to life.
