Can I play your music on my Podcast/radio station?
YES! By all means, do! And if you can plug www.TheFuMP.com while you're at it we would greatly appreciate it. Also note that our artists have recorded many songs that have not been released on The FuMP but are still podsafe. Visit our Artists page and click on the More Info link next to the artist's name to contact an artist or visit their web site.

I want to play one of the songs from your archive on my podcast. How do I download it?
You will need to register with us as a podcaster. Fill out this form and tell us about your podcast. Once your application is approved you will be given download access to all the songs in the archive.

How do I submit a song?
If you are not a pre-approved artist your songs must be submitted and approved one at a time. Upload a 128k MP3 for us to consider here. If your song is approved you will then be allowed to upload your song to our servers and you will be paid for your submission.

What does squick mean?
Squick is internet slang for something that you may find gross or disgusting. It's a combination of the words "squirm" and "ick." We use it for songs about topics or which contain lyrics that are considered gross or offensive. Some examples are "Heavyflow" by Seamonkey and "Give It To Everybody" by Sudden Death. We offer a "squick free" RSS feed for podcast listeners who do not wish to hear this material.
