Each of our featured artists have released a CD single and the Purple Worm Records 'CD SAMPLER' Volume 1 & 2 and 'REMIX ALBUM' are now available.Click on the links below to read some of our press releasesWe listen to every demo that comes into our office, here are some basic requirements that would help us out:-
1. Please don't send MP3s. They won't get listened to, we like them to be sent in CD format to the address above.
2. Please don't send multiple emails. Why? Because only one person checks them and its annoying to get the same email over and over.
3. If you have a website with the songs on it, we can have a listen, but we can't guarantee feedback.
4. What music do we like?. We like a lots of styles, so don't be put off. If your music is innovative and iconic, we are going to like it.
5. Please don't show up to the office with your demo tape. It will just be a waste of time because the people who are involved in signing the bands do not work from that address. Like we said all the demos get listened to.
6. Please do not send us your audition tapes. Thanks
