Submission Guidelines:

 

1. Exclusivity:

   • Your mix must be exclusive to Deeper Shades of House.
   • It should not have been broadcast, uploaded, or shared anywhere else before or after submission.
     
     

2. Recording Standards:

   • The mix must be:
     • Recorded in WAV or AIFF format, or as a 320kbps MP3 (nothing below).
     • At least 60 minutes long (not even a second shorter—longer is fine (In that case I'll cut it to 60).
     • A clean recording, free of hums, hisses, or distortion.
     • Uncompressed, with at least 4dB of headroom (this means your audio levels shouldn’t peak at 0dB to leave space for proper mastering).
     
     
     • PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE AI PRODUCED MUSIC IN YOUR MIX. If you're not sure if a certian song could be AI, please choose another one to be safe. THANK YOU
       
       

3. No Additional Audio:

   • Do not include voiceovers, jingles, or IDs in your mix.

     • A short bio about yourself.
     • Links to your social profiles and website.
     • Two high-quality photos of yourself.
       
       

5. Label Your Files Correctly:

   • Name the file with your DJ name (e.g., DJName-MixTitle.mp3).
