Introducing: Submit your music

Band performs on stage
Share your music with the world via BBC Weekender Introducing

Ready to share your music with the rest of the world? Then let us have it. If you live in Northamptonshire, are unsigned and you're producing original music, then send it in.

If you're writing and performing musical masterpieces - and live in the county - we can be the ones to share your crafted tunes with the world.

BBC Weekender Introducing has its sight's set on showcasing the best in new music, so if you've got a killer track, then send it in after taking a look at this checklist:

1. All submitted material should be original - strictly no covers.

2. Put your contact details - name, e-mail address and telephone number - on the sleeve and the CD.

3. Check the CD will play before you send it off.

4. Make sure the recording is loud enough for it to get played on radio.

5. We are unable to return CDs, vinyl and mini-discs.

6. Send us some details about your band - ideally including your biography, band website and MySpace address.

7. We may want to feature your band on bbc.co.uk/northampton, so please include an e-mail address so we can contact you for pictures and more information.

We prefer you to send music by post on CD or CDR (recordable CD). When you burn tracks to CDR, make sure they are audio CDs (not data CDs) so that they can be played in a normal CD player.

We also accept vinyl and mini-discs.

If you wish to send mp3's, use the BBC Introducing Uploader .
