Uncovering independent, original music that deserves to be heard.

Submit Music

If you would like to be included on Audio Gumshoe, please submit your music for review and consideration.

Three to five songs can be played during the show. Single song submissions are RARELY played on the show. Therefore, three songs minimum are required. If you simply want to have your music considered first, email talent /at/ audiogumshoe /dot/ com to point to a place where it can be heard.

Requirements for inclusion are:

  • Music is original material (no covers)
  • Artist owns their own masters and has full mechanical and performance rights
  • No royalties can be paid to the artist/musician as this show is not licensed with BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, or similar agencies.
  • Music played may be used in promotional materials or affiliated shows (AMPed New Music Weekly).
  • Music submitted will NOT be released to other parties or used for other purposes without the express permission of the artist.

Make sure that all id3 tags are filled in for your song files. If songs cannot be matched to their artists they are essentially useless. Also name your song files so that they can be distinguished as your own. Title such as “track3.mp3″ or “lovesong.mp3″ don’t help.

NOTE: Submission of your music does not guarantee play on the show. It simply provides you the opportunity to have your music reviewed for possible inclusion. Thank you for your understanding.

IMPORTANT: Audio Gumshoe NO LONGER accepts mailed promo kits or CDs.

One more thing: It has been decided that the RAP genre will not be played on Audio Gumshoe. Songs with some rap content may be considered if it is used to highlight a specific section of a song. Your understanding is appreciated, but it is found that this genre does not match the typical listener of Audio Gumshoe.

Ready? Submit three to five tunes at talent /at/ audiogumshoe /dot/ com. Be sure to put “Audio Gumshoe Submission” as your subject line so we don’t miss you in the filter. If you prefer to submit links to the downloads, instead of the actual files, that’s okay, too. YOU MUST INCLUDE BIO INFORMATION AND WEB LINKS OR YOUR SONGS WILL NEVER BE PLAYED.
