Email ANBAD!
Know a great new band that we should feature on ANBAD?
Then email me – include a Soundcloud/Bandcamp/mp3 link and a suggestion of which songs are best.
All suggested bands always get listened to. UPDATE… OK, this may no longer be wholly true. These days I get so many emails, a line has to be drawn. So here’s the deal:
- If you’re a new band/new band’s friend/proud parent pretending to be a friend/etc… of a new band, I’ll definitely listen. I love love love ultra-new bands. Make it very clear the email is from the band itself in the subject line!
- If you’re a PR person spamming me an email without bothering to do research and it clearly isn’t right for ANBAD, it’ll probably be deleted before reading. ANBAD has a very broad spectrum of artists featured, so to fail this test, you have to be exceptionally lazy. NB: literally all the PRs that I know are very nice. It’s just the few bad ones out there that drive me bonkers.
- I have email filters set so that any email containing the words ‘exclusive remix’, ‘mash-up’, and ‘post-Dubstep’ are automatically labelled as spam.
- I’d love to reply to everyone, but honestly there aren’t enough hours in the day.
Sorry to be anal about this. But… wait – I’ve got no excuse. I’m just anal.
