HzCollective Presents: ‘MegaHz’, a festival of international, touring and
local artists presenting experimental, noise & avant garde music and visual
media. Taking place between Charlottesville [Saturday October 11th] &
Richmond, VA [Sunday October 12th], ‘MegaHz’ will serve as an opportunity
for artists to collaborate, share & present their ideas of improvisation and
avant garde composition to the perceptive experimental communities that
exist within these two cities.

All experimental, noise, & avant garde musicians interested in participating
in this year’s festival are encouraged to submit a recording and short bio
for consideration. The deadline is August 1st. All submissions will be
carefully considered by the HzCollective Festival Committee and notice of
acceptance will be sent via email by September 1st.

Due to the D.I.Y. nature of this event (no grants, not-for profit status,
etc.) we can promise only a place to crash and nutritional sustanance. So we
ask that you come prepared to participate for the purpose of
community-building and networking with other artists and enthusiasts. If we
collect sufficient funds from the event, we will gladly compensate
performers with an equal slice of the door.

Please keep in mind that the two day festivals are in two different cities,
both two hours from D.C. and one hour from each other. Be sure to clarify
which date(s) your submission is to be considered for.

Day Two of the Festival in Richmond, Virginia will play host to a Record
Label Expo, so if your record label is interested in tabling merchandise and
