General
Nearly everything released on Linear Obsessional is completely free to download, It really is as simple as that. The files are hosted at Bandcamp and Archive. At Bandcamp you are asked to "name your price" - you are welcome to enter "0", or more if you feel generous. Those on Archive are completely free. However any small amount of money generated is used for future projects. Linear Obsessional is not run for profit.
Most releases from January 2013 onwards are also available in very limited physical editions.
Every release includes a PDF booklet in the download which contain notes, images and further information.

Submissions
The majority of artists on Linear Obsessional are invited by me to contribute to the label.
I do welcome submissions, as long as they fit certain criteria. All material to be released by Linear Obsessional should be free and subject to a Creative Commons license, it should also fit with the visual style of the physical releases. My decision is final.
I'm generally looking for music which fits within my own tastes- I'm interested in acoustic music, free improvisation, field recordings, modern composition, noise, drone, music with lots of space, music of extraordinary density, experimental song form and traditional (folk) music. I'm really not interested in modern dance music, rock music, "new age" music, drum machines and sequencers, singer/songwriters or anything "dark"... but, you know, you can always try to persuade me...But please note preference will always be given to invited and commissioned artists.
If you have music you'd like me to consider for release on Linear Obsessional you can contact me via the contact form below or you can even send stuff to my address - 30 Pascoe Road, Hither Green, London, SE13 5JB. I will try to reply to everybody who writes (at least once!)
Please be aware that I have a backlog of things to release, so it may take months to get released.
