The M.etropolis Free Jazz & Outlaw Poetry M.arketplace is a new platform to present many of the ‘unheard’ and ‘unread’ to the public. It allows free jazz improv artists, outlaw poets, publishers, record labels and dedicated listeners and readers to come together and enjoy the benefits of an online community. To:
- Read and listen to great niche artists;
- Discover more work or new artists;
- Buy CD’s, vinyl records, books and downloads from the many record labels, publishers and independent artists that are present on our marketplace;
- Sell your second hand records.
At this point, the new platform is a work in progress. Many of the above is not ready for public yet. But while we are building features and adding more record labels, publishers and independent artists, we are always happy to talk to you.
Are you an artist, record label or publisher of niche free jazz, free improv or outlaw poetry?
Contact us about your work and we might have a space on our marketplace available for you. Our server space is not unlimited so it’s first come first serve, if you’re eligible of course.
Are you a dedicated listener/reader of the unheard/unread?
Leave us a quick note, question or suggestion and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

So what can you find here on this Network?
Quality downloads
Quality MP3 jazz and poetry downloads. And service. Plain and simple. Browse these pages or do a search for that lesser known artists and you might just find an interesting release. You will notice a short description, a track list and cover/album art images. And… one or two sample tracks to listen to before you decide. These tracks are of the same quality as all the others included in each release. In most cases this is 192kbps MP3 which should satisfy most but if you insist on the full CD or vinyl quality, please check out Metropolis | The Shop on The Free Jazz & Outlaw Poetry Network.
