Submit Unheard Sound Art & Contact Our Broadcast Team

Submitting Your Unheard Audio

We curate audio for environments where traditional listening breaks down. If you hold recordings that have never been played in public, distributed online, or pressed to physical media, we provide a temporary vessel for their release. The process requires trust—you send us the files, we broadcast them into a remote terrain, and then the digital traces are permanently erased.

Prepare your files in high-resolution WAV format. Include a brief text document detailing the origin of the sound, the instrumentation used, and any specific conceptual framework surrounding the piece. Do not send links to streaming platforms; the work must remain entirely offline until the moment of transmission.

Press, Media & Site Partnerships

Documenting an ephemeral event presents unique challenges. We welcome conversations with journalists, audio documentarians, and photographers who understand the delicate nature of capturing a broadcast that leaves no archive. When reaching out for press access, specify your intended medium and publication. We prioritize coverage that respects the isolation of our transmission sites.

Finding the right geography dictates the success of our projects. For several years we have maintained an ongoing partnership with various forestry commissions and private landowners to secure off-grid locations. If you manage a remote terrain, an abandoned structure, or a geographically isolated site that could host a future broadcast, we want to hear from you. The ideal location lacks cellular reception and offers natural acoustic boundaries.

Transmission Scope & Limitations

Operating independent FM transmitters in wilderness areas introduces strict operational boundaries. We cannot guarantee uninterrupted signal clarity across all topographies. Weather patterns, dense foliage, and atmospheric pressure actively shape how the sound travels from the antenna to the receiver. This unpredictability forms a core part of the listening experience.

Our equipment runs entirely on portable power banks and solar generators. Consequently, broadcast durations are strictly capped. We do not facilitate continuous around-the-clock programming. Each event operates within a defined temporal window, usually dictated by daylight and battery reserves.

While our transmission methods are proven within specific environmental parameters, signal degradation remains an inherent risk of off-grid broadcasting. We embrace this decay. If you have technical questions regarding our radio transmissions or hardware setup, direct your correspondence to our engineering team.
