Submit your track
Get your music played live on the show and run through CWI's audio analysis and verification tools on air. Every week: the song plays, the tool gets demoed live on it, the hosts rate it and publish the results. Send us a link — our team reviews every submission.
Privacy. What we collect: your name, artist name, email address, track link, and your consent checkbox confirmation. Where it goes: submissions are stored on CWI's Railway-hosted service and a copy is emailed to our team at hp@cumulativeweb.com for review. Why: to consider your track for "CWI Lab: Signal Sessions" and to contact you about your submission. Retention: we keep submissions for as long as we run the Show, plus a reasonable archive period afterward. If you want your data deleted, email hp@cumulativeweb.com with the subject "Delete my submission" and we will remove your personal details and stop contacting you. Sharing: we do not sell your information. Your details are used only by CWI staff for the Show and related artist outreach.
