"textContent": ".WAV Gallery started as a single curator's perspective on NYC's underground music scene. As .WAV Gallery grows from a personal voice into a fuller editorial publication, I'm inviting you to contribute.\n\nThe gallery has two sections. **The Curator's Crates** is free and publicly accessible: a recurring guide to must-hear music and cultural highlights, curated by OGD and guests. **The Backroom** is our members section (also free to join) where we publish deeper, longer-form work. Sign up with your email here.\n\n**What We're Looking For**\nThe Backroom publishes longform pieces rooted in NYC's underground music scene. Strong pitches tend to be specific and written with a clear point of view. Some formats that have worked well here:\n\n * **Profiles/ Interviews** : DJs, promoters, venue staff, and other figures whose stories complicate or enrich the way we understand the culture\n * **Scene reports:** Immersive accounts of events, residencies, or moments worth preserving.\n * **Essays:** Personal or critical writing that uses music as a lens into something larger\n * **Photo essays:** Photographers should be prepared to contribute a short written piece alongside their images\n * **On-going Series:** I'm also looking for guest writers for two recurring features: _The Curator's Crates_ (our music and culture newsletter, where you can pitch one section or a full volume) and _DJs with Day Jobs_ (profiles of artists who navigate a parallel career outside of music)\n\n\n\nIf you have an idea outside of the above, do not hesitate to share. The list is a starting point, not a boundary.\n\n**The Details**\nPitches should be 200 words or less and include a brief bio. Tell me what the piece is and why it resonates with you. Contributors are paid $20 -$100 based on length, format, and experience.\n\nSend pitches to **ogd@wavgallery.com** with the subject line:_Backroom Pitch - [Your Name]_. I read everything, and will follow up.\n\nSubmit a Pitch",
