Greetings,

This is a request for music submissions for a non-commercial website. It is not an attempt to advertise. I hope this forum is appropriate.

http://www.unlikelystories.org is a selective and regularly updated poetry and literary site that would like to start showcasing an experimental musician each month for our readers. This is easy, free publicity; we'll build a page for you, review you, and point people to where they can get more of your music. In return, the musicians we showcase must provide us with at least 10 minutes worth of their music that we can can keep available on our site for downloading for one year. (obviously, you retain all rights) The site is completely non-profit and advertisement-free, surviving only on donations. We do NOT want to sell your music or make money off it in any way; we just want to bring a few good artists to the attention of our readers.

What sort of music are we looking for? Well, every descriptive word I can think of has been co-opted by marketers and watered down to meaninglessness. But a good rule of thumb is that you have something artistically meaningful that would never get played on commercial radio. I've heard a LOT of mp3s here on the kvr boards that I've liked; anything that blends genres in unique and creative ways will be seriously considered. This is a brand new feature for us

The easiest way to be considered is if you already have something for download on the net; just send us a link. If you don't have a web page, but you have some mp3s, email them to us at music@unlikelystories.org (obviously, we won't share those mp3s with anyone else without your express permission) If you really, really want to send us a cd, send us a short description of your music, and we'll send you our address if we're interested. We'd rather have mp3s by email, because PO boxes cost money, and we're running on donations. In particular, we do not want your press packet.

Please take a look at the complete submission guidelines at http://www.unlikelystories.org/guidelines2.html . Of course, you can also check out the site; this is a brand new feature for us, so there's no music there yet, but you read some of the poetry to get a better feel for the overall style.

Be sure to mention us to anyone else who might be interested.
Thanks,
Nathan Penton

Just checked out your site and like the sentements expressed there. I may have some material to send although I work in many styles I do have some work that is reflective of the thoughts expressed at your site. Espessially like the 2nd statement

Quote:

. ALL humans are the captains of their fate and masters of their soul (to borrow a wording from Invictus by William Ernest Henley). To interfere with another's right to their fate and soul is the quintessence of criminal behavior.

This is something that I have been thinking alot about, especially now that the world is in it's present condition.

i have some tracks on my site that may interest you

in particular "franky and cantor",a track based around feelings i had after watching a documentary about a german cannibal.you said you wanted dark

but also a lot of my stuff i think has darker undertones?well in my opinion anyway,let me know what you think.and i will be visiting the site again as i found one or two interesting bits there myself,thanks for sharing

Clicking the flashy sig underneath will bring you to my music; other art and one poem including a link to find another 400+ poems posted elsewhere.

I doubt I'll fall into any category here, but I can try can't I

It's refreshing to see somthing different like this...
Interesting site, I'll definatly bookmark it.
