COMPANY
If you know the name of the company you are searching for, simply type in the company name and click search. You don't need to put the full company title into the box. If are not sure of the full name of the company, only type in what do you do know. For example, if you are looking for a company called "Blue Cake" but you're not sure if the full title is "Blue Cake Music" or "Blue Cake Publishing" you're more likely to find the company by just typing "Blue Cake" in the company box.
GENRES
You can also search for companies by genre. Click on the arrow on the side of each genre box and select from the genre list that appears. The list includes not only musical styles but also different ways in which the company may use the music (e.g. Advertising, Library/Production).
You can use just one of the Genre boxes or up to four. Please note that if you search using more than one genre type, the results will only include companies that deal with all your selected genres. For example, if you select "Reggae" in one genre box and "Country" in another then click on the Search button, the results will list companies that deal with both "Reggae" and "Country" music, not either.
ACCEPTS UNSOLICITED MATERIAL TICKBOX
If you are wishing to submit your work to a publishing company, please be aware that not all companies accept demos. Some music publishers simply don't have the time to listen to demos sent in by the general public and other companies may have been set up for a very specific purpose such as handling an established composer so in this case the company will never be looking for new writers.
However, there are plenty of publishers who will be happy to have a look or listen to your work. You can find the companies who are happy to receive demos by ticking the "Accepts Unsolicited Material" box.
Please only send demo recordings, lyrics or sheet music to those publishers found when the "Accepts Unsolicited Material" box is ticked.
Please visit the FAQ section for further advice on submitting demos.
