Submissions to Deformat

This is where you will find ways to send your music to Deformat to be released. Please keep in mind that I may have a specific sound in mind, and it might not be you.

I promise that I will tell you what I think of it, rejection or acceptance. You may feel free to argue with me about my decision.

Before considering all of this, please check out and read: What it means to release music with Deformat.

General Submissions

To send demos, the easiest and fastest way is to reach out to John Merrik via @wolfmerrik on IG. Sending a Google Drive link is ideal, as this is generally what I use for sharing larger files between my phone and computer.

You can also send a message via Bandcamp fan email if IG is not available to you, but please include a link.

The preferred format is WAV. Please only send entire tracks, not incomplete works or half-finished ideas.

The reason I have chosen to do it this way is that it allows for easier feedback and getting immediately back in touch.

Compilation Submissions

Each compilation will have its own set of rules with specified media types, length, etc. It will also likely have a specific means of getting the files submitted.

Please read all information on the compilation page.
