It is time to show everyone what Nerdcore is all about. As with previous RT releases, we invite all artists to showcase their geek cred. This compilation album will be heavily promoted to avid Nerdcore fans and potential listeners. Therefore we expect you to only submit your best unreleased material. Remember thousands of people will be listening to this release, so leave them with the best impression of your sound.
In past releases, tracks have been accepted for the compilation bar none. Slight changes are being made to this volume's release, due to my ownership of NerdcoreNow.com. While I still encourage everyone to submit their tracks, minimal requirements must be met. If I do not believe your track is Nerdcore related then it will not make the cut. Now remember, Nerdcore is a huge realm, so if you have an ounce of geek in you making the cut shouldn't be difficult. Just choose a topic that is close to heart for you and I am sure your geek pride will shine through.
Secondly, all tracks must be polished. If I do not believe your track has been properly mixed I will ask you to go back to the drawing board. This also includes the recording quality of the vocals. I will be moderately linent on recording quality. However if your voice sounds like a cylinder block breaking across the side of my skull, I am going to kindly ask that you try again. Therefore if you want to guarantee your spot on the compilation, send your tracks in before the deadline. If you happen to submit near the deadline and are worried I may not approve the track, yet have had the track mixed, just tell me who mixed it for you. If it was mixed by a well known engerineer then you need not worry about making the cut.
All tracks must be MP3 encoded at a bitrate of 320 kpbs. Additionally, if you do not send them at 320 kpbs, I will ask you to try again.
As long as your track meets the above requirements, you are in the clear. The rest is up to individual interpretation of your subject matter.
Once you are ready to submit your track, send me an email at: albums@nerdcorenow.com
You must include in the email:
Artist Name
Song Title & Featured Artists (if any)
Producer or Composer (Optional)
Engineered By (Optional)
Either attach the MP3 file or use a trusted file host. Don't lead me down a pipe dream where I must wait 5 minutes to download the file at 5kb/sec.
Sending the above information will guarantee accuracy for the ID3 tags.
If you send in album artwork before the deadline I will include it within the final ZIP file. However I will not use any artwork sent in for the official cover or promotional use. I will be making all of the official artwork myself.
Reader's Digest Version: Only your best unreleased stuff, must be nerdy, must be properly mixed.
WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR THIS RELEASE
