The Surgical Ear Test Is In Session

The Surgical Ear Test is the standard at HB Records Radio Worldwide. Every track submitted goes through a rigorous review process built on 25 years of broadcasting independent music globally. It's not about personal taste — it's about broadcast readiness. Is the mix clean? Are the vocals present and sitting on top? Is the master hitting the right loudness target for radio? Is the metadata complete? Does the track have the energy to stop a listener and make them stay? Pass it — you earn global rotation. Don't pass it — you get real feedback telling you exactly why, not a generic rejection. No gatekeepers. No labels needed. Just standards.

FAQ
Can I submit a mixtape cut or freestyle?
Standalone, mixed and mastered tracks only. Freestyles and mixtape snippets are not eligible for review or airplay consideration.
What if my track isn't fully mastered yet?
Do not submit until it's ready. Only high-quality, finished recordings will be evaluated. Unfinished tracks will not receive a review.
How do I know if my track was selected for airplay?
You'll be notified via the social link you provide. Priority submissions receive a written verdict within 48–72 hours.
Can I submit more than one track?
Yes — each track requires a separate submission and payment for priority.
