- To follow up on some questions about demo submissions:
-
- - We will critique any and all demo material as long as it is techno
- oriented. Good/bad/long/short/dirty/clean are not issues. All we
- care about is the quality of the attempt.
-
- - "Unsigned" is not a pre-requisite. We say this to emphasize that
- we accept demos from "the little guy." We are also trying to present
- worthy demos to as many interested ears as possible. If you are
- involved with a contract representative, please let us know ahead of
- time so we do not cross any legal wires.
-
- - We prefer to have submissions on a CrO2 cassette recorded without
- dolby noise reduction. This is pretty much standard industry
- protocol. DAT is impressive, but not necessary.
-
- - A full bio package is great but it's the music that will impress. On
- the other hand, don't be artsy and submit anonymously. At the very
- least include your name and some means of contact. We also like to
- see some info on the production details, the equipment used etc.
-
- - Material will not be returned unless you request so and arrange to
- cover the appropriate postal costs. Hopefully when we se a few more
- bucks this policy will change.
-
- - We are acting as "collector" for Bill Leib and Michael Balch who will
- be producing a compilation CD of hardcore techno due for release in
- late January. The working title of this project is "Coodinate 01."
-
- They are aiming for 15-16 tracks or 70 minutes worth of material.
- This means there is an upper limit of 5 minutes per track. Recording
- quality is important since they want to do as little production
- as possible. But if there is a grunge demo that kicks, they will do
- whatever is necessary to include it. All tracks will eventually be
- fed into SoundTools - so a SoundTools compatible file is also a means
- of submitting.
-
- The deadline for submission for the compilation is a firm December 20th.
- -------------
-
- This is an amazing opportunity, I hope I got your mind racing as fast
- as mine. Anyways....hope to HEAR you soon.
