LOUD WOMEN DIY Guide #7: How to write your own press release So you’ve recorded your banging new single or put together an EP that’s ready to set the world on fire (or at least, your local venues). Congratulations! Now, if you want people to hear it, you need to shout about it. And what better way to shout than with a press release? I know, I know. “But Cassie, writing a press release sounds way too professional for a DIY band like us!” Well, friends, strap in. It’s easier than you think, and I’ll show you how to do it in the most punk-rock way possible—without selling your soul or hiring a PR team.

Women of Funk: Essential Albums You Need to Hear Funk music is too often viewed as a male-dominant genre. But plenty of female artists, from Lyn Collins to Janelle Monáe, have torn the roof off just as hard.

Funk isn’t a just a man’s game. Since the beloved genre’s beginnings, women have been trailblazing a path through it, and breaking barriers in the process.

Pls RSVP through the link in our profile. This event is for gender diverse audio learners, practitioners and professionals. No one will be turned away for their gender expression, but we do ask cis men to be respectful of this space built for underrepresented genders in the audio industry.

The idea is to have interested participants preparing and giving 5-ish minute presentations. Audio playback, image projection, snacks and warm drinks will be provided. **You do not have to give a presentation to participate.

For us, community and learning support were the answer to facing a “male dominated audio industry” 💖 through our programming, we aim to make audio/sound tools and technology accessible for our gender diverse learners and colleagues ✨

son commun was created in 2023 by sound practitioner/independent archivist Mariana Mejía Ahrens, along with some of her close colleagues, out of rage and love…as a way to support each other while existing and working in an audio industry built for/by cis-men
