Quite often I receive mails asking about promotional material, so better to write policy here:

Generally, Special Interests magazine does not ask, beg or need promotional material. We write about material we have bought ourselves and believe are necessary to be introduced to more people.

If you insist on sending your (bands/labels) works, we are doing the best we can to get it reviewed. However, its not 100% guaranteed.

Accepted is:
-Vinyl records
-CD
-Tape of reasonable edition

We don't see need to review material that is impossible to get (ultra limited tapes, cdr's etc) or not put enough effort and commitment.
Do not send files, copies or damaged goods. No hole punches, not cut-outs, no "promo" texts written all over cover. Release should be as it is when buyer gets it.

As said, we don't beg or need material. But if you insist to send something, include clear letter saying it's for SI review purposes and mail to:
