You can submit demos to the address below (if you wish to do it manually) but you can also use the form to the right to email us.



Your demos can be uploaded to your own server (if you happen to have one) or you can use a free filehost like Rapidshare, Yousendit, Sendspace*, etc. We advise NOT to send email attachments because they may be blocked by whatever security our inboxes have. As long as it's somewhere we can download it, we don't mind! We currently only support demo submissions via the Internet and not mail, this may change in the future however.

*Please do not send demos via Sendspace anymore, for some reason my ISP never gets past 5kbps on this file host.


Some guidelines & rules

1. You must only send files that are in MP3 or WAV format. We do prefer MP3 because all our releases are in MP3 format, it means we don't have to convert all your files. If you are sending MP3 then you must keep them between 192 and 320kbps, in other words - the lowest quality you must submit is 192 and the highest 320.

2. You could send individual files but it's much easier (for everyone) to put them in a compressed archive like a ZIP or RAR file, we accept both but no other types of compressed archives.

3. You must specify a contact email address, and agree that it's ok to email you often about updates and developments on Viral Records. It's unlikely we'll tell you every time a release is out, but we'll tell you about upcoming compilations you could contribute to or anything else that we think is important. Also it's damn helpful if you provide a biography for yourself as well but it's not compulsory.

4. Of course you could show us your music by sending us something like your Myspace page. We'd rather have a full release like a single, EP or album send to us but if your release isn't ready or there's another reason we will check out things like Myspace pages if you like... it's all pretty flexible over here.

5. If you run into trouble with anything technical while submitting your demo (like file format or uploading issues) feel free to email us or drop us a message on MSN or Myspace. We can help you out with most problems you might encounter. You can find out all methods of contacting us on the contact page (seems logical).
