Just wanted to drop a brief note about our ongoing contest to give away a free week of analog recording in the last week of April at Tiny Telephone‘s new B studio, Minitel, with free house engineer Jamie Riotto and a string arrangement from the Magik*Magik Orchestra.
While we’ve received a number of great entries, we’ve decided to extend the deadline to apply for the contest! The previous deadline to apply was Friday, April 1, with a round of open voting scheduled to take place the next week. The new deadline to apply is April 8 at noon. Instead of open voting for finalists, we’ll present all of the submitted bands to our judges.
Below a reminder about the rules and how to apply:
