The Process

The Audition Process.
1. Submit your best song(s). Live audition videos, live audio recordings, acapellas, covers, demos, freestyles, and other improvised works showcasing raw talent are also accepted.
2. We listen, share and conduct an in-house review and then vote. We may also consult with external DJs, A&Rs, record labels, publishers and other music industry contacts for their opinions.
3. We promote your music for 7 days so that our radio listeners, social media followers, record label contacts, publishers, bloggers, music reviewers, music journalists and other music industry professionals, and music fans around the world can listen and vote too (promoted auditions).
4. Participants who receive the most positive responses overall during the audition process are selected to join the ??? Networks roster and begin taking their career to the next level. Other participants are welcome to audition again.

Still Sound Good?  Sure.
