Eight records
a month. And a
site for whoever
made them
Untapped House is a house music publication for producers nobody's found yet. Every month we pick eight tracks, write them up, and put them in front of people who listen and people who book. If you're one of the eight, we build you a website too. It costs nothing.
What you get
A slot in the crate
Your track featured on the front of the site for the month, with a write-up and every link pointing straight at you. Not a playlist add. A page about your record.
A site of your own
Your music, your dates, your bio, your photos and your booking email on one page at yourname.untappedhouse.com. Built and hosted by us. Point your own domain at it whenever you want.
If a promoter hears your track at 2am, where do you send them? A SoundCloud link isn't an answer to "send me your info." A site is.
What it costs
Nothing, and there isn't a version of this where it costs something later. Being early on the right artists is the entire point of the publication — that's what we get out of it.
- ✓No fee, no submission charge, no upsell.
- ✓Placement is never for sale. Nobody can buy a slot, including you.
- ✓No rights, no cut of your music, no exclusivity, no contract.
- ✓The site is yours. Take the files and leave whenever you like.
Already done it once
What gets in
- ✓House, broadly. Deep, raw, acid, jackin', garage-leaning — all fine.
- ✓Finished and mixed. Not a loop, not a sketch, not a rough bounce.
- ✓Not signed and not on the circuit yet.
- ✓Unreleased, or out in the last sixty days.
- ✓Yours. You made it, and you can prove it.
Most tracks get a no. That's on purpose — if everything got in, being in wouldn't mean anything to you or to the promoter reading it.
Send one track
One, not five, during the first week of the month. It gets listened to all the way through, once, by a person. You'll hear back either way — a no is a no, not silence.

It's in the pile
Everything gets listened to before the window closes, and you'll get an answer either way.
