Contribute to Lost At E Minor
If you find something — or someone — creative, fun, and inspiring that you’d like to post about directly on Lost At E Minor, under your name (or an alias if that’s your want), then simply use this form to submit a post. If we dig it too (and chances are we will), then we’ll run it on Lost At E Minor.
Words and images
Please keep the post to between 20-80 words in length (as Randy Newman once noted, short is good) and, if possible, images should be ‘saved for web’ as JPGs, less than 80KB, and be 480 pixels wide (though they can be any height). If that all sounds like mumbo jumbo to you, then just submit the copy and the images at whatever size you can get them at and we’ll deal with it. You can use any images from across the web, as long as you provide a credit link to where you found them.
You can now also embed videos with your post! Yeeha. We love videos. Please ensure that the video embed is 480px wide.
Shoot us a message if you have any questions about contributing posts. We look forward to seeing your submissions!
If you’d like to submit your own work — your own art, fashion, music, photography, etc — then please use the submit work page and submit away.
Thanks for contributing! Keep an eye on the site to see your post featured and please spread the good word about Lost At E Minor to your friends, family and foes.

Pre-eminent Norwegian Viking metal band Enslaved has evolved over the years from a straight-forward black metal band into a moody, post-rock outfit without completely abandoning their roots. Their last few albums have seen a shift towards English lyrics, sweeping and majestic instrumentals, and diverse influences — everything from Pink Floyd and ’70s prog and psych rock to ’80s goth and shoegaze pop.

Yellow Bird Project, a Montreal-based organization, has teamed up with indie rock bands to raise money for charities.
