Write for Sampled

We publish reporting and criticism on music, production, gear, tech, business, upskilling and the scenes around them. If you know a corner of this world well and can write about it plainly, pitch us.

What we look for

  • — A specific angle, not a topic. Name the story.
  • — First-hand knowledge: rooms you have been in, gear you have used.
  • — Sources and numbers you can stand behind.
  • — Clear writing. No press-release voice.

How it works

  • — You send this form; it lands in the editor's inbox.
  • — We reply if the pitch fits, usually within a week.
  • — Accepted writers get an invite and a login to draft here.
  • — Every piece is reviewed by an editor before it goes live.
