Year-End Reminder

Again, apologies if I didn’t write about your music this year. My inbox runneth over, as evidenced by this snapshot of my email folders in their current state. On a positive note, I’ve been working on putting together a Plex server that will greatly improve my ability to process inbound requests for coverage. Details on the submission policy are in this site’s FAQ.

For context: I focus on ambient music, experimental electronic music, contemporary classical, instrumental hip-hop, sound art, and other vaguely related things, related to the extent that the use of technology feels exploratory, intentional — and I must admit I write about virtually nothing with an intelligible vocal.

I should also mention: I get hundreds of inbound emails about music each week, and so I rarely respond. I do listen constantly, and when I find something I want to write about, I write about it. I’m not a great correspondent.

If I’m not going to write about your music, I will almost certainly not write in reply to tell you so, because doing so would mean literally hundreds of additional emails I would have to write each week — emails that would inevitably spur further correspondence.
