Ever since I put up an open call for submissions for the 3m33s compilation, a few questions from artists and fans have arisen. Here are some clarifications.
Is there a deadline for submissions?
No.
Tracks are released organically in the order they come in, at a rate of no more than one per day. The intent being to try and give every artist involved equal visibility. Now that the compilation volume is complete (33 tracks) we will keep submissions aside to make another volume in the near future. So keep them coming!
Can I retain the rights to my track / release it elsewhere / etc.?
Keyword here is 'lending', you create a track that is included amongst many other artists and hopefully will generate visibility for everyone involved. The track is under the CC by SA creative commons licence, which means commercial use is not prohibited and then anyone and everyone may use your track, remix it, put it in a film, etc. so long as they attribute it to you in the way that you want it to be. Now, if you want to release the track through other channels and on other mediums, be my guest! (Mentioning that it was created for this compilation would be a very appreciated courtesy as well.)

Bandcamp shows only 13 tracks in the compilation?!
We are releasing tracks at a rate of one per day publicly, in order to give each contributing artist an equal window of exposure. If you're in a rush to hear the remainder of the compilation, 3.33$ and all 33 tracks will be included with the download!
Speaking of which, where does the money go?
If I knew that, I'd probably have more of it by now...
More explicitely: bandcamp will keep some, paypal will take a cut and then whatever's left will be used to 'set up shop'. Provided, that's a vague terminology so let's define it a bit: a (net)label / artist collective project is in the works, which will also occasionally release small runs of (hopefully) beautiful objects. The website is already created, however hosting isn't free! Seriously, the website is frikkin' awesome and you'll wanna hear those other projects we have in the works. Trust us. However, if you still don't, a breakdown of the funds needed and ongoing news about the campaign will be provided along the way.
How do I submit a track?
If you are interested in submitting a track, it must be 3 minutes 33 seconds in length, something you consider to be drone and do not mind lending to this compilation under the CC by SA common creative licence. The track title will be the date of its release in the following format: YYYY.MM.DD and your bio and artist photo will be displayed on the track page. All benefits from digital sales will be used to set up shop and print limited runs of upcoming releases, help a brother out!
Submit by sending e-mail with a link to hosted file or wetransfer to lebergermusic (a) gmail dot com with artist bio and picture.
