Attention all music nutters: Happy new year! And down to business: RA is looking for writers, record reviewers, photographers and other people with mad skillz to join the RA team in 2007. Want to be part of the glamorous crowd hanging around in John Digweed’s DJ booth? No? Okay. Want shop staff to recognize the name on your cheque book? It might happen. Want to sit around at home doing actual productive things on your computer? This is the job for you. RA is looking for contribs in 2007. If you feel you’ve got the skillz to do any of the following, we’d love to hear from you.
- music reviews
- event reviews
- news
- features (okay, we're pushing the envelope here but you never know)
- interviews
- party photographs
- graphic art/illustrations
We’re looking for music nerds and party heads across all the electronic genres (that means trance, prog, minimal, electrohouse, breaks, drum n bass, house, experimental, techno etc – the lot.) And we’re an international site, so we’re looking for peeps all around the world. If you're a writer who can string a sentence together or a photographer who can take snaps without putting your thumb over the lens, and you’re interested in supporting the artists you love, this website and the dance music community as a whole, please get in contact with us. We'd love to hear from you.
Benefits to you include free music, free entry into events you’re reviewing or photographing, and the rapt attention of a huge number of dance music readers, who will pore over your words and pictures like you were God’s gift to music. Well, maybe not, but lots of people will look at your stuff. And if you’re really great, you never know what might happen. So how about it?
If you’re interested, please contact tami(AT)residentadvisor.net. Just as an introduction, please send along your top 5 tracks and top 5 DJs at the mo and a sample of your writing, photos and pictures if you’ve got them. Don’t worry if you haven’t got anything, get in contact anyway. Especially if you’re reliable. That counts for a lot.
Good luck with your mission should you choose to accept it! - Cheers, The RA team.
