not submitted yet
You started a submission but haven't sent it. Nothing here is final, and we haven't received it.
Every step after "about you" is optional. You can send it with gaps and fill the rest in here afterwards.
A few tracks from your playlist aren't available on Apple Music, even though they're usually still on YouTube Music. For each one, either remove it, or replace it with a link to a new track on YouTube Music. I'll manually check Apple Music and let you know if it's available. You can check yourself too, without a subscription, at music.apple.com/us/search.

Your SoundCloud release plays your tracks back automatically, in order, no mixing needed from you. Prefer to record and mix it yourself on your own DJ equipment? Upload that recording here and we'll use it instead.

Change anything here and save, including things you skipped in the form. Artwork, photos and your mix are replaced from the dashboard; your release week and your email are handled by message, since we coordinate those with you.
A short introduction for listeners. It appears behind an "artist bio" button on your episode, and you can change it whenever you like.

You have an unfinished submission.
welcome
what is this?
After the after releases playlists from DJs and music lovers, not the music they play for others, but the music they keep for themselves. Formative records. Late-night listening. The honest stuff.
No rush, your progress saves as you go. Close the tab whenever you like and come back to this browser to carry on.
20–30 tracks from your actual listening life. No brief, no genre limits.
02
We release it
On Apple Music, YouTube Music, and SoundCloud, under your name.
03
It stays
A permanent episode in the archive. Something to point to.
04
We record it
Your tracks played back continuously on SoundCloud, automatic, in order, no mixing needed from you. Prefer to mix it yourself? Upload your own recording in the portal instead.
After you submit, you'll get sign-in details by email for your curator portal at aftertheafter.xyz/portal, come back anytime to update your playlist or artwork, talk to us, and see your finished graphics before release.
before you begin
the agreement.
A short agreement to protect both of us and keep the archive clean. Read it, then confirm below.
By submitting a playlist, you grant after the after ownership of the playlist as part of its archive. It may be uploaded to the different channels of after the after, social media, streaming platforms, and others.
2. Artist's usage rights
You may share and promote the playlist on your personal channels, provided after the after is credited. You may not upload or repost it on streaming services without prior written permission.
3. Image & promotion
After the after may use your name, image, and bio in connection with the playlist and the project's promotion: social media, website, newsletters, and paid advertising.
4. Duration
Playlists remain in the archive once published. Changes require mutual agreement.
5. Music streaming platforms
Streaming platforms may occasionally remove songs from their catalog, after the after has no control over this. A continuous recording will be archived on SoundCloud to preserve your selection.
Friendly understanding
This agreement is not intended to limit your freedom or creativity. If anything feels off, reach out. We'll work it out.
about you
who are you?
When you continue we'll email you your DJ name, which is how you sign in. Nothing is sent yet. That email is how you get back to this form, and how you change or finish things after you submit. Every step from here is optional, so you can send what you have and fill in the rest later.
We'll pick your release week and confirm it with you, usually a few weeks out. We set the running order ourselves, so submitting sooner isn't a queue ticket, but nothing can be scheduled until your playlist is in. Nothing here is locked in either: you can change your playlist, artwork and anything else from your portal right up until the day before your date.
We'll be in touch via email with next steps. In the meantime, listen to what's already out there.
your portal
Come back anytime at aftertheafter.xyz/portal to update your playlist or artwork, talk to us about any changes, and see your finished graphics before your episode goes out. These details are in your confirmation email too.
DJ name—
To sign in, enter that name at the portal and we'll email you a code. If it doesn't arrive, check your spam or junk folder.
