Welcome Back to Radio Arazel!Music Submission Guidelines
We can’t wait to hear your music!
But more than that — We can’t wait to hear your music on Radio Arazel!
There are some rules, and ultimately we will decide if your music fits our format closely enough to make it on the air. Please understand, though, that we do not judge your music and if you are not selected for airplay on Radio Arazel, it doesn’t mean we don’t like your music – we love all music! But we do have a format we’re sticking to. Please keep our format in mind when you submit music to Radio Arazel. Many bands have music that crosses over into our format, so when in doubt, send us an entire CD to review. We will bend as best we can to get you on the air if at all possible.
Okay, so here’s the 411 on submitting music to Radio Arazel:
Please Read Everything Carefully and Completely to Avoid Delays
First…
If desiring to submit music via the Internet, please do not send mp3’s to any of our email addresses. Please utilize http://www.yousendit.com to FTP the mp3 files to their servers with the recipient; submit [at] radioarazel [dot] com. The Altared Lives email addresses are not set up to handle large files and mp3’s effectively clog our email client and prevent other email from being received in a timely fashion.
You must be verifiable as an artist, so include your MySpace music page address, or your bands main website address so we can validate your eligibility to send us music.
Once you’ve upload music to us, please message us immediately and we will retrieve the files as soon as possible.
Other Stuff We Need
We would also like a copy of your album art to display on Radio Arazel website while one of your tracks is in rotation. The best format for this is a 400×200 pixel .jpg file, but we can resize just about any roughly rectangular image down to what we need. A picture of your and/or your band is perfect if you don’t currently have album art. You may email the picture file, or include it with your uploaded songs. We can also scan the cover art if you send a CD.
Please Understand
Your music submission to Radio Arazel does not guarantee airplay on the Podcast, and we cannot return music received here at the Radio Arazel studio.
Your music submission carries with it your implicit permission to air the tracks we select on Girls Rock Radio. If you have restrictions on which tracks we may or may not play, you must communicate that information to us along with your submission, or anytime thereafter. Your only recourse if we select tracks for airplay that you do not wish played on Radio Arazel is to inform us you would like your track(s) pulled from the playlist, and we will promptly comply.
Thank you
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask. And again, we’re so excited to be having the chance to hear more of your music!
