Terms & Conditions

Welcome to Above the Crowds.

By using this website, you agree to the terms below. Nothing too dramatic, just the basic rules that help keep the site clear, fair and legally sane.

Please do not use this website in a way that could damage it, interfere with its normal operation, attempt to access private areas, or misuse any forms, comments or contact details.

3. Editorial content

The articles, reviews, recommendations and opinions published on Above the Crowds are editorial content.

They reflect the views, taste and judgment of the writer or contributor at the time of publication. Music is subjective, thankfully, so you may disagree. That is allowed. Possibly even healthy.

We try to keep information accurate, but we cannot guarantee that everything will always be complete, current or free from mistakes. Venues, dates, line-ups, releases and links can change.

4. Copyright

Unless otherwise stated, all text, photography, design elements and original content on this website belong to Above the Crowds, Pablo Iriarte, or the credited contributor.

You may not copy, reproduce, republish, sell, modify or redistribute our original content without permission.

You may quote short excerpts as long as you credit Above the Crowds and link back to the original article.

5. Photography and images

Some images on this website may be original photography by Above the Crowds or credited contributors. Other images may be press images, artist-approved images, venue materials, label assets, embedded media or images used with permission.

If you believe an image has been used incorrectly, please contact us and we will review it.

6. Artist, label and PR submissions

If you send us music, press releases, photos, artwork, videos, links or other material, you confirm that you have the right to share that material with us.

Sending material does not guarantee publication, review, interview, feature or coverage.

By sending us material, you allow us to review it and, where appropriate, use it for editorial purposes related to Above the Crowds, including articles, interviews, reviews, recommendations and social media posts connected to the website.

We may edit submitted text for clarity, length, style or formatting.

7. Comments and user contributions

If comments are enabled, please keep them respectful.

We may remove comments that are abusive, hateful, spammy, defamatory, promotional, illegal or simply not adding much beyond noise.

You are responsible for anything you post in comments or send through the website.

8. External links

This website may link to external websites, streaming platforms, ticketing pages, venues, artists, labels, publications and social media platforms.

We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, privacy practices or availability of external websites.

Embedded content is provided by those platforms and may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

10. No professional advice

The content on Above the Crowds is for editorial, cultural and entertainment purposes.

Nothing on this site should be treated as legal, financial, medical or professional advice. Which would be an ambitious turn for a music magazine anyway.

We do our best to keep the website working and the content accurate, but we cannot guarantee that the site will always be available, secure, error-free or up to date.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Above the Crowds is not liable for any loss or damage resulting from the use of this website or reliance on its content.
