Authorized TWOB “Contributors” may use the upload box on this page to upload your songs or albums

  1. The upload box is only visible to registered, logged in users.
  2. You must request to upgrade your membership to a “Contributor” before you can upload.  (It’s easy, Contact Us for authorization).
  3. It’s best to ZIP files before uploading so they load faster.
  4. The maximum file size is 128 MB so, you may need to break albums into multiple files.
  5. Please be patient as the progress indicator only appears in some browsers.
  6. We prefer MP3 (or ZIPped MP3s). If you can’t upload either of those, we can accept AAC, ABM, AC3, AIFF, FLAC, WAV and WMA too.

 Music Upload Guidelines

We accept “Complete” products via our FTP Client on our site. If you’re already a registered on our site, let us know your Username then we will can change your status to a Contributor and you can load it from your computer. Otherwise, you’ll see a “Registration” tab in the upper right corner on the main home page. Just register and no fear, we don’t share! When we get your registration notice We will change the status to allow you to start your process and will sent you  a notice to that effect. Once your are registered and you login into the site on return, you’ll be able to use the upload box on this page. Please upload the artwork and liner notes with the product. MP3 files are preferred over other formats as it is accepted by almost all devices on the market today.

 

Also please note that it faster and easier for you to first compress your files into a Zip file. That way you don’t have to do repeated processing of files. If you don’t do this, your product will get co-mingled with other artists. We like to put entire CD’s in the rotation for airplay and also to distribute to our other broadcasters so that they can play on their shows.

 

We need all the information possible for reporting and also for the marketplace concept we’re in the process of building. The marketplace will direct all sales in the future directly to the artist and labels sites for sales. At this time we are not charging anything for sales, but want the sales money to go more directly to the artists. What we ask is that artists/labels waiver their internet performance royalties in lieu of the sales monies. Also, please notify me if/or when you have registered and I’ll make the temporary switch for you to upload. If you’d prefer to send hardcopy, the address is below. If you need any personal assistance with this method, just give me a call and I’ll be happy to get you handled. Thank you for submitting your work! Looking forward to communicating with you.
