ABOUT RED MOON MOUNTAIN:
The RMMU (Red Moon Mountain Universe) is an ongoing collaborative indie multimedia horror story that has been written and developed by Louis W, (me!)
Red Moon Mountain follows six post-highschool individuals navigating their lives as they find themselves stuck in their haunted hometown of Red Moon, Maine. Banding together, they form a group called the Red Moon Monster Hunters, and spend their free time attempting to capture the rumored monsters living in The Valley on film.

The RMMU can be followed on almost any social media (under the username redmoonmountain,) or on Patreon, where new content is consistently uploaded to develop both story and characters. Most of my content is uploaded to Patreon for the free membership, but a low-cost membership exists to help support the art and voice teams behind the project.
The RMMU has an incredible voice cast behind it, with the main cast's introductions available to view on YouTube and Instagram.

ABOUT THIS PROJECT:
I am creating a mock radio show, 158.5 The Fang, that will include music segments as well as scripted segments. This Casting Call is to find musicians who either have created music, or would be willing to create music inspired by in-universe bands to be included in the music segments of the show.
This show will be uploaded to Red Moon Mountain's YouTube, so copyright agreements would need to be made to ensure that the content is not flagged, and can still be monetized.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
I am looking for musicians or bands who are looking for their songs to be included in a scripted radio show project that exists within my ongoing indie horror multimedia universe.
THIS IS NOT BACKGROUND MUSIC OR INSTRUMENTAL! I am specifically looking for small artists that want to collaborate, promote their music, and depending on the project's success I am looking to pay per song used.
I ABSOLUTELY encourage "weird," "intense," or "garage-y" music. Two of my main characters are very into that scene, and frequently attend vageuly-illegal shows in an abandoned barnhouse in their town.

Musicians will be paid a fixed amount per song used/written, with any music written for the project collaborative between creator and myself to ensure content and creation is not misrepresentative or abused in any way.

All work will be done in a collaborative space via an exclusive Discord server for Cast and Crew of the project. You don't need to include your Discord handle in your audition, I'll reach out to you for it if you are accepted.

Show me your best work, your favorite work, or your weirdest work. If you are interested in perhaps working out other ways you can assist with the project, feel free to DM me and see if we can come up with something new! Like said, this project is multimedia, with lots of varying ways people can interact with the story. The more help, the merrier!

Thank you for reading.
