If
you have any questions or need help with the sign-up/submission
process, please contact
us.
ATTENTION: Primary Elements has transitioned to a private service for an indefinite period of time while we contemplate upgrading the service. We are no longer accepting or reviewing new artist material. If you have submitted material in the past, rest assured that we will not use your material without contacting you if/when we decide to resurrect the service. We will continue to represent existing artists' material for direct licensing unless you would prefer we not. Thank you for all your hard work over the years and we look forward to working with you again some day soon! —Mark Lindsey & Pe Partners

Track Submissions - New as of 10/20/10 |

Web
Please use our Artist Media Upload Tool to upload your 16-bit/44.1kHz (or higher) track masters. When possible, please include the artist name and title of your track in the filename. (ex. "Artist Name - Title of the Track.wav") We recommend zipping a handful of files at a time and using multiple file slots in the upload tool, rather than creating a single giant zip with all of your files.
Note: You can upload files up to 240MB each, and a total of 640MB for each upload session (start a new upload for additional files). For larger submissions, please consider using the Anon FTP or CD methods below. You can also use a service such as YouSendIt.com, Box.net or TransferBigFiles.com, etc. Send these transfer files to artists@primaryelements.com.
You can also upload a document with any track META information (title, duration, genre, description, etc.), but this additional information is not required.
Anonymous FTP
server: ftp.primaryelements.com
username: anonymous@primaryelements.com
password: (leave blank or use the username again)
(please make sure your name is on the zip files so we know who they belong to)
CD
You may also mail us your full-res (16-bit / 44.1kHz) music masters
on Audio CD or a Data CD-R/CD-ROM. If sending a CD-R/ROM, please format your files as uncompressed .AIF or .WAV files and make
sure you include your name, email address and the title of each track in
your submission package.
If
you want your CD back, you must contact
us first to make arrangements.

Upon acceptance, we will prepare
your tracks and post them to the service ASAP.
This may take some time, but we'll email you as
soon as your music is live!
