Contact/Submissions
For track submissions, send the track link, a photo, and some background via MusoSoup, Submithub, or email.
If sending via email, DO NOT send your songs as an attachment. Please upload the track to Soundcloud (preferred), Bandcamp, or YouTube — and provide the link in your submission.
On any platform, please do not send any tracks released over 60 days ago.
MusoSoup is a submission platform that gets your music to our ears. We’ll notify of any potential coverage via the site, after listening. Many other curators are also on the platform, and you signing up gets the release on their dashboards as well. The platform does not include feedback. If you sign up using this link, I will be notified of your submission and check it out ASAP. MusoSoup is ideal for submitting singles and albums.
We also accept submissions on SubmitHub, with ~10-30 words of written feedback guaranteed, in addition to consideration for coverage. Submithub is ideal for submitting singles.
An alternative if seeking lengthier feedback: Submitting via Fluence provides you with guaranteed feedback, generally 100+ words, in addition to consideration for coverage on Obscure Sound. I check MusoSoup and Submithub ahead of Fluence, though.
Email is also a submission option — to [email protected] — with the title “Obscure Sound Submission” preferably. MusoSoup, Submithub, and Fluence are prioritized, though. No feedback will be provided via email. I will only reply if interested in featuring. The submission platforms above are the best way to get your music to me.

Please do not sign me up for your band’s newsletter or any other sort of automated e-mail; I’ll just report the newsletter as spam. Introduce yourself and send a manual submission instead, please!

Also, do not attempt to send your music directly to Facebook, LinkedIn, or any other social network. It will be deleted. There are only four avenues – MusoSoup, Submithub, Fluence, and email – for music submissions.
