Glitch.FM Station ID-Contest



Glitch.fm, the best glitch hop / mutant bass station in the Internet is on the hunt to add some cool new Station IDs to Glitch.FM's archive system. To encourage the creative output from the listeners, they decided to make a competition out of it with some WICKED prizes to boot!

Dear bedroom / boardroom / ballroom / stadium DJ's and producers that's a great opportunity for you to contribute your skills for the extremely good cause of spreading heavy-bass vibe across the planet, while earning some nice prizes and boosting YOUR ego afterwards when hearing your Station ID's being played on air many times a day :) 

Read carefully all the details below and GET TO WORK!!

"What's a station ID? It's one of those short audio snippets, which radio stations play every-so-often that say something to the effect of "You're listening to Glitch.FM"
