Creative Commons netlabel looking for you for their 100th release

August 28, 2009

The release of the 100th free album download on the WM Recordings Netlabel label is rapidly approaching. One of the projects surrounding their 100th free album will be the release of an album of cover version of tracks from the WM Recordings catalog.

Do you play in a band? Pick your favorite WM Recordings track from www.wmrecordings.com and… cover it! You can choose from almost a thousand songs, varying in style from pop to afro-beat!

They will post submission guidelines on their site very soon, but you’re already invited to start submitting your cover versions. Deadline is September 25th.

The rules are simple: the track(s) must have been released by WM Recordings and your version should not be longer than 5 minutes. Also keep in mind that a remix does not count as a cover version. Mail infoATwmrecordingsPUNKTcom if you have any questions or if you have more great ideas to celebrate their 100th free album!
