Who the international contacts are

The network is organized by genre, so your material doesn't go out as a mass blast — it goes to the right segment. These are specialized media: music webzines and blogs, radio (including FM and college/community stations), and genre-specific editors and programmers. We reach out with care to the right people, but the decision to cover you is always theirs — we don't sell reviews or guaranteed placements.

Where they are

The network is strongly European. The most covered markets are France, Germany and the UK, followed by Spain, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Outside Europe, there's a significant base of college and community radio in the US — several hundred university stations — plus a solid presence in Australia.

120per campaign

It costs little because we don't profit from it: the fee covers our costs and supports the webzine. We're a non-profit, and have been since 1999.

How it works
01
You send the material

Record, artwork, bio and links. Rough is fine, we'll take care of it.

02
We write the press release

A release that tells the real story of the record, not a copy-paste job.

03
We send it to the network

To the right list for your genre, in Italy and abroad.

04
We give you the numbers

Sent, opened and clicked — real numbers, as shown above.

What we don't promise
We don't buy reviews: we send the record to people who decide for themselves whether to write about it.
We don't guarantee a number of features: it depends on the record and the timing.
We don't inflate the numbers: what you see above are the real campaigns, limits included.
What bands say
“It doesn't promise the moon, it promises to do its job the best way possible, and that's what I got in return.”

Frequently asked questions
What does a press campaign include?

We write a press release from the material you send us and mail it to the right network for your genre: 2,506 Italian contacts and 8,754 international ones, across webzines, web radio, college radio, journalists and music magazines.

How much does it cost and what does the fee cover?

€120 per campaign. It costs little because we don't profit from it: the fee covers our real costs and supports the webzine, not a business margin.

Do you guarantee reviews or radio play?

No, and we don't buy them either: we send the record to people who decide for themselves whether to cover it. We don't guarantee a number of features — it depends on the record and the timing.

How do I know if it worked?

We always share the real numbers: emails sent, opened and clicked, with an average open rate of ~25% and a click rate of 7–9% — the same figures we publish across our campaigns.
