PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING MUSIC:
There are currently twenty or so specific genres that I focus on, plus the occasional 'wildcard'. Obviously, the generic term 'indie' means different things to different people. Some people think it's any music that is 'unsigned'. I would strongly urge you to listen to at least a bit of the show first, look at a few show covers and getting a feel for what I'm trying to promote and support.
Takes a deep breath, they are as follows, helpfully in alphabetical order:
Alternative / Ambient / Anarcho Punk / Bedroom Pop / Digital Hardcore / DIY / Dream Pop / Electronica / Experimental / Garage Rock / Indie / Indie Pop / Indie Rock / Industrial / Lo-Fi / Noise Pop / Post-Punk / Power Electronics / Riot Grrrl / Shoegaze / Synth Pop / Twee Pop.
I do like other things as well, like Drum & Bass, Acid Techno, Crooners, Grime, Jungle and Rap.
I ONLY ACCEPT MP3's AT 320kps
You can send WAV / FLAC files if you want, it just means I have to convert them this end. Obviously you won't get very far past just the one. There is currently a 50MB upload limit imposed by gmail on my email address.
If you want to send me larger files and whole albums then use a free cloud based transfer utility like wetransfer or dropbox - LINKS BELOW. They still have free to use versions available. Or send me an active link or code from bandcamp or soundcloud for instance, where I can access and download your music. I don't respond to Spotify links or other streaming only services. I do not entertain music made by Ai.
I consider myself fairly proactive and love to make contact and build relationships with independent artists, labels, promoters, fanzines, record shops... anyone who loves the music The Outsiders seeks to celebrate and promote.

contact / submissions
+44 7751 769624
Personal emails are always replied to, so if you ever fancy a chat, want to get involved in some way, have any suggestions or comments, they are always welcome. Would you like to be a guest on the live show, send in a station ID voice file or talk about your music in a future PODCAST? Get in touch.
Submissions of music are considered if they fit the shows dynamic and vibe. It is no reflection on the music you make if it doesn't get played on The Outsiders.
I've normally got a headset on when I'm at the computer so if you want to WHATSAPP me, feel free. You can enable video if you like, just be aware I may be unshaven / have coffee down my t-shirt and/or other indiscretions. I will afford you the same allowances LOL If you want to use Zoom / Teams / Google Meet etc, get in touch.
