Submissions
The easiest ways to get your shit up on the site? Follow these few easy steps and you have a good shot:
1. The fastest way is probably to email THE CULTURE OF ME. Include links to your mp3s. DO NOT ATTACH THEM. If you send us a link to your website or MySpace page, we make no guarantees and we’ll probably just think you’re lame for not being able to follow directions.
2. Let me know if you want us to offer your music for download. More often than not, that’s why we feature bands. So others can hear it and spread it around like the herps, duh. Streaming’s okay too, but downloading is, like, neato.
3. All press materials and promo copies should be digital, unless they’re vinyl LPs or EPs or box sets or limited-run things.
4. Oh, and if you don’t like criticism (constructive or otherwise), you’re on the wrong site. If you can’t take a poor review, don’t submit. End of story.

Are you an artist or a band and you want to fill out our handy little Q&A form to get written up in our “Getting Sassy with…” column? Well then, just download the form, fill out your answers and send them in. We may just put yours up.

Event photography: $100/hour with a 2-hour minimum for the shoot and $50/hour with a 1-hour minimum of post-production editing costs.
Photo booths: $150/hour with a 2-hour minimum for the shoot and $50/hour with a 2-hour minimum of post-production editing costs.
