IMC
Submit Music

Upload your music directly or import a public Bandcamp release from Artist Space.

< 2 min

Submitting music to IMC has never been this easy.

Once your Artist Space and Artist Profile are ready, your next Single, EP or Album can be sent to IMC in under two minutes.

HOW IT WORKS

Your release goes from your computer to IMC in four simple steps.

01

Create your Artist Space

Start with an IMC artist account. Artist Space is where submissions, your profile, reviews, tools and release activity live.

02

Connect your Artist Profile

If IMC has already reviewed you, your Artist Profile may already exist: find it in the public Artist Directory, claim it from Artist Space and complete the Instagram verification. If no profile exists yet, create it directly from Artist Space. In both cases, the required Artist Profile information must be completed before Submissions unlock.

03

Upload or import from Bandcamp

Drop in your audio files for a Single, EP or Album, or paste a public Bandcamp URL. IMC retrieves available release information so you have less to type.

04

Check it and send

Add the release story and required details, review the information, then hit Submit music. Your release immediately appears in your submission history. You will receive a notification in Artist Space as soon as IMC has evaluated it, usually within 3 days.

UPLOAD

Send the files directly.

Upload one track or a complete EP or Album. When readable metadata is available, IMC can prefill part of the release information before you review it.

BANDCAMP

Already on Bandcamp?

Paste the public track, EP or Album URL. IMC imports the information Bandcamp makes available, including track data, audio and artwork when accessible.

IMC NOTES OR ARTIST+

Choose how you want to use IMC.

IMC FREE

Use IMC Notes when you need them.

Editorial submissions use 9 Notes for a Single, 15 for an EP and 20 for an Album. Eligible paid tools can also be unlocked individually with IMC Notes.

IMC Records is coming soon. IMC Notes help finance the equipment needed to launch the physical-music side of the project once enough funds have been raised.

IMC ARTIST+

Prefer access to the full Artist+ toolkit?

Artist+ gives you access to the Artist+ tools while your subscription is active, instead of unlocking eligible paid tools one by one. It also includes one submission per monthly cycle, whether you send a Single, EP or Album.

Compare IMC Free and Artist+

A paid or included submission is a fee for editorial consideration. It does not guarantee that the release will be selected or published.

ALREADY FEATURED ON IMC?

Your Artist Profile may already be waiting for you.

If you already have a review on Indie Music Center, search your artist name in the public directory. Create your Artist Space, request the existing profile, complete the Instagram code verification and the profile is connected to your account.
