Does Disquiet.com Accept Music for Review Consideration?

I would love to hear your music and watch your videos. However, please don’t expect me to reply to correspondence — not even with a quick confirmation of receipt.

I simply don’t have the time to engage in back and forths via email about whether I plan on covering a given release. I receive an enormous amount of music from musicians and their record labels, and that doesn’t count all the time I spend seeking out music (and sound-related art). I can’t promise to write back — either in a timely manner, or at all. What I can promise is the following: I will listen to as much music I receive as possible, without diminishing the attention I can pay to what I do elect to listen to, and I will consider it for coverage. I listen constantly, and when something really strikes me, that’s when I write about it — either here, or for other publications to which I contribute.

My preference is that you email me a link to a zip archive containing lossless files, and also include a link to it streaming somewhere, so I can potentially quickly preview it before downloading. If you have the music on Bandcamp, then just send me a “yum” download code. If you feel the need to send me a CD (or vinyl copy, or some other physical format), you can email me (visit this site’s contact page) to get my address in San Francisco, where I live. Please don’t send audio files as attachments: they clog up my email, and I just delete them. In closing, I do want to hear your music — but I also want to hear other people’s music, and the less time I spend in correspondence, the more time I can spend listening.
