Depths

In a weekly episode over four months, ten seekers will recommend unappreciated songs given a theme. A master playlist for each week will be created highlighting those pieces.

New depths of sound demand to be discovered, with the seekers being selected from diverse backgrounds and musical tastes. Music can be private; it's easy to share yet rarely is. The seekers are veiled, the listeners learn about them only through their selections.

Guidelines

• The Voyage lasts four months, and the ten seekers will participate for seventeen to eighteen weeks.
• The songs must be less than 12 minutes long, pieces under 6 minutes are preferred to keep the playlist around an hour.
• Seekers will be contacted each week through email with the theme, and will have six days to submit.
• The list of previous episodes is provided, please don't submit duplicates.
• Album versions are preferred, but if no good version is available, a live recording will be accepted.
• The “theme” is open to interpretation, it's there to reduce overchoice, make your choices your own, it yields more diverse pieces. There are no boundaries in language, genre, or content.
