Music Distribution
If you are a band or record label and you’re interested in RisingFist.com as a means to distribute your original music (in CD or Vinyl format), please submit your information below and we will get back to you ASAP.
We don’t sell digital downloads any longer. In fact, we strongly encourage bands to follow the "Radiohead method" of distributing DIGITAL DOWNLOADS supported by donations. Doing otherwise by trying to keep people from sharing your music (fighting the technology), would actually be doing your band more harm than good. Read more about why bands should stop trying to sell the digital versions of their album by going here.
We’ve created an avenue for great up & coming bands to expose their music in two ways.
1. They can offer their albums as free digital downloads in our Free Download Lounge which we actively promote from our blog.
2. They can distribute their albums in CD/Vinyl/Tape format in our Store. Where customers can rest assured that the bands music they’re purchasing/downloading is NON-RIAA, and most music is bought staight from a small indie label the band is signed with if not straight from the band themselves.
I feel it’s important to note that we are selective in choosing what bands to promote, and just because we may not choose your band, we’re not implying your music sucks in any way! With that said, the huge upside to being selective is that we can spend more time promoting the fewer bands we do accept, which will benefit those bands much more so than if they were just one more band on myspace, or interpunk out of 100’s, even 1,000’s of other bands competing for attention.
Listen to some of the music we blogged about first, then after that if you feel you have something that we would like, by all means contact us!
If you’re still interested please drop us a line using the contact box below, please include a link where I can sample your music, or simply upload a song. If you don’t have your music online yet you can still message me and I’ll give you instructions on sending me a physical copy of your music (CD/Tape/Vinyl).
Regards,
Steve Longoria
