How to Submit a Demo to Astana
Getting your demo accepted by Astana requires a track that matches their sound and meets professional production standards. Here are key tips:
- Match the genre and BPM. Astana releases Afro House, Organic House / Downtempo, Deep House music in the 118–126 BPM range. Make sure your track fits.
- Meet the quality threshold. Aim for a mix quality score of at least 65/100. Pay attention to loudness, frequency balance, and stereo imaging.
- Follow submission guidelines. Send a private SoundCloud or streaming link — not a raw file. Include a short bio and any relevant release history.
- Be patient. Labels receive hundreds of demos. Allow 2–4 weeks for a response, and do not send follow-ups within that window.
