How to Participate in our CD Giveaway

If you are a Hudson Valley artist or a Hudson Valley record label, we think we have an opportunity that will interest you. In exchange for a couple of copies of your CD, we'll set up a giveaway contest featuring your CD.

Here's what we need from you:

1. Two copies of your CD.
   • One to be used as a prize. This copy should be new and still shrink-wrapped.
   • One to be used for creating RealAudio demos of selections from your CD. Minimally, we want to offer at least one song, but we might be able to provide more if space allows. If you need it back, we will return this copy at the conclusion of the contest if you provide a self-addressed/stamped envelope or make other arrangements to pick it up.
2. Any promotional information about your band or CD that you'd like to feature with your CD. This might include:
   • Pictures or logos
   • Biographical information
   • Articles/reviews
   • Links to web pages
   • Appearance Schedule
   We reserve the right to select what information is presented.
3. A list of two or three songs that you'd like to feature.
4. Information on how your CD can be purchased and the cost.

Mail the above stuff to:

Steve Stiert

Ulster Park, NY 12487

Contest Agreement

Depending on current demand, your CD will be featured within the next one to three months. As soon as possible we will add your CD to our Hudson Valley CDs page. Minimally, your CD give-away page will include:

• Link to the page from our main page
• Front cover of the CD
• One or two complete songs in Real Audio format
• Brief description of the CD (provided by you)
• Information on how to purchase a copy (as provided by you)

Your CD will be featured for one month. At the end of the month, we will randomly select a winner from all those who registered. We will handle shipping the CD to the winner.

At the conclusion of the contest, depending on space constraints, we reserve the right to remove from HVmusic all pages and audio files associated with your CD (with the exception of the Hudson Valley Albums page).

Please note: The pages and audio files developed for the CD give-away are the creative property of HVmusic and cannot be reused without the permission of HVmusic. (Sorry, but we can't afford to develop web pages for the cost of a CD!).
