I had found a website where you get to pitch directly to playlist curators for a certain number of credits. Didn't have much success with that, some of curators gave no feedback why they did or did not like it, if we heard a response at all.
@@joehuls265 Yeah that can be hit and miss for sure. I know some people it's worked really well for and others it hasn't, so it's more of a gamble. I find it always works best for songs that really do fit into a genre well :)
Like everyone I've had a mixed experience. Some of the platforms that say they can get you to curator's are to be honest, not worth it. Definitely the best approach is the smaller playlist and when and where you can in person by email etc. I've been getting regular plays on Amzing Radio, BBC Introducing and a couple of Spotify play lists under my The Secret Helicopters band name. And it's going great. I have a regular few dollars a week streaming revenue coming in now. It sounds small but maybe 15 to 20 dollars a month. Have to say though playlist is definitely a must but its hard graft kids!
The whole thing is a complete gamble. I’ve released 24 songs now. 4 of them have made it to editorial playlists. I couldn’t tell you how or why! It’s frustrating but now I just make good music. Do my best. Focus on art and not numbers. Build relationships, collaborate and hope that if I stick around for long enough….something will stick! It’s a mad intense industry. Big up Damien for giving the little people hope and making it a little easier to navigate :)
Sometimes you can’t always explain why, but for some reason that song caught the attention 😊😊 I would say 24 songs is part of it, you’re showing Spotify that you’re continuing to develop and push your career. You’re totally right, art and music first, numbers second. This is always the way to actually get the results you want anyway! 😂😊
Precisely, there is no way to know how to get to playlist. We’ve lost hope. open.spotify.com/track/6yYRMGgRH1dporbSz0FmM3?si=U34Oj09bT8iaiJ5Kgj4t7Q&dl_branch=1
@@zb-music4278 Hey Zeroblues, I debated whether or not to comment but i thought I would. It's so tough creating content for RUclips when the only way the algorithm pushes your videos if you make clickbait or sensaitionalt titles and make short videos with unrealistic goals. Its such a frustration. The problem i have is when i say the stuff which is real, which is this is about talent, hard work, stop trying to find a short cut, make better content every day, just becasue you write songs it doesnt mean they are good, etc etc only to see the people who argue with me post on Instagram once every week and think its Instagram algorithm not showing their stuff which is why they have no Spotify plays. Its tough. Anyway rant over... This is not a negative rant at you but I would like to know constructively what would you like me to make videos about? Give me some ideas and lets see what I can do All the best Damo
@@DamianKeyes it’s all business and I respect you even more for this comment. It makes us feel as if you’re still there for us and not just click baiting us. I would appreciate if there’s anything about SoundCloud
@@zb-music4278 I helped a friend release their first song with some things I learned doing a music business course.. I also got them to follow damian's video on how to release a song, step by step, and suggested submitting their track upon release to spotify playlists.. they got thousands of streams in their first month. The issue with giving advice on a specific topic for someone like Damian I'm guessing is that it's not enough to talk about the 'one thing', because so many aspects contribute towards a success, and sometimes one little mistake can mess things up.. WHICH MEANS: the videos will become repetitive to a degree. Because he doesn't want to miss out on any points. Imo this is very sensible! But each to their own :)
Great stuff, love your content! Is a cool strategy to go with user generated playlists. I got 35.000 streams last month because of user generated playlists. Every sunday I reach out to new curators that I found with the help of your video and using playlistowl.
Thank you for all your guides. We were not aware to take Spotify in our own hands. Now we finally did it after 4 years of our debut album^^. We just started to discover that marketing can be fun and we'll do everything we can from now on! We cannot thank you enough. Your content pushed us into it. I'm absolutely sure we'll see results quite soon. So much to do and I can't wait to put it all out! Kind Regards
Thanks for helping the little guy to navigate the system. It's weird how my music pops up on spotify, whatsapp, facebook, or wherever. I just put out music and don't worry about the numbers as much as I should.
This makes sense if you have small following. But it's the same pitch everytime. That you need to promote your single. But I'll say it again, "it doesn't make sense to promote to an empty room". I'm currently one of those musicians with zero fans. So I can spend a lot of time promoting a new single, but if there is no one to pitch it to, why bother ? How do artist with zero fans grow ?
I pre-released my single over a month in advance and I didn't get put on an editorial. I don't trust that whole "release your song early" advice. I was specific about the genre and the middle it delivers too.
cheers for this. I pitched my latest song Euphoria (came out 01/06/2021) and gave Spotify4 weeks but never made a playlist sadly. Now I'm frantically finding other sites like submit hub, daily playlists etc and still not having luck. Anyone know any other good places to pitch a song to please?
Hey.Should you put a track in a playlist if that’s the first track you release on Spotify.And should you first release the track and than send the track link to the playlist .How does it work?
All really great stuff for me to learn right now, as I've just finally joined my first serious band a few months ago! Done a couple of shows in our small town and written a decent amount of music, enough for us to start refining it and figuring out what works and what doesn't. Hopefully there's some more beginner-centric content coming in the future 😉 PS; the production of this video is FUEGO! 🔥🔥🔥
Hey Francesco, the Academy isn’t free because it costs money to run, I have 5 members of staff who work for the Academy, and just like I advise musicians - they don’t work for free! I price it as cheaply as I can, you can get over 50+ hours of courses for $20. Hope that helps :)
Great material thanks - one minor question - In the video you mention 60K song uploads a day to equal 1.8 million songs but 60K X 365 days is approx 22 Million songs per year. Are there more artists than listeners using Spotify? I would bet the rock star money is providing services to aspiring 20 yr olds who want to be rock stars vs actually becoming a rockstar. 22 million songs per year is what can only be termed as a astoundingly oversaturated market. The value isn’t the music it’s s the music services to artists.
Hey Damian. Thanks for the tips! I have a possibly 'stupid question alert'.... when you suggest "make a playlist including your music", should that playlist then be made public to get on Spotify's radar? Will that combination of songs in that playlist still make it to Spotify's "radar" if it doesn't have a lot of streams? Thanks.
Hi Damian, i really find it difficult to find contacts/curators for Prog Metal/Djent. Last year ive used the Unsigned Guide and it was a huge disappointment...just a waste of money and time due the lack of specific music genres. Do you have enough curators for that specific music style in DKMBA that would make the subscription worthy? Keep the good videos coming! Regards!
Hey! I don’t know every single playlist in there but it takes data directly from Spotify and you can search any word, so if it’s there, you’ll be able to find it. DKMBA has over 50 hours of courses, downloads, a private community and you can work with me on your music. So don’t join just for Sonar, the important aspects are in your development, not just playlists 😊 There’s a 7 day free trial, so I’d recommend checking it out and going from there 🤟
In the description it said to put down the process of making the song. I was going to send this: This was a beautiful nightmare to put together. From looking up tutorials on how to do this genre to putting in the man hours for this song to be complete. This song is a reflection of that. To get that “final run” in, you know that final push you need to finish something. May it be homework due the next day or getting cleaning done. This song reflects that and hopefully by the end of the song, motivates that individual accomplish that goal. Good?
Speaking of things that can go wrong, even if you 100% sure you've just uploaded the right version of the song... double check.... Thank fuck I haven't planned anything for that release
It's already been revealed that the Editorial Playlist is actually an Algorithm, it's basically impossible for 100 + (And thats probably a stretch) Spotify staff to listen to Millions of tracks coming in on every hour, every day, IMPOSSIBLE so it's definitely an Algorithm.
One question I always have about these lists of playlist contacts or playlist submission services is about niche genres, specifically classical (traditional classical, not “contemporary classical”). I’m aware that probably only about 1% of playlists are likely to be classical, and hence 99% of the contacts are useless to me. And in terms of services, it may be unlikely anyone working there has expertise in the field, and so wouldn’t know how to pitch effectively. For contact lists, main concern would be if either a) there are no classical playlists included at all, or b) the 5 or 10 included are ones I already know about and could easily find the contact info for on my own. But without first seeing them myself (which would take paying for them) I have no way to tell if they might have any utility. 7000 contacts, or 70,000, is useless if none of them are in my genre.
Hi mate! What I don't understand is, I follow my band on my private Spotify account. I have made personal playlists with my band and friends bands yet friends bands come up in Playlists Spotify makes for me but never my band.. it does come up in my New Release playlist when we drop a single but that is it! Some of my friends bands haven't even has as many plays as us, too.. 🤷♂️ #burncitysaints
@@DamianKeyes It still doesn't work.. Came across your channel recently, as I'm about to release a debut single and music video for the first time, and you've been super helpful man, thanks for your hard work, appreciate it!
I love most of your tutorials, man. I actually can't wait to sign up for your courses or academy. I only wait until I get done with the whole preparations of the contents which I'll need to promote so that I don't lack anything during the marketing process. By the way, this is the most stupid and amateurish reaction when someones says "I don't sound like anyone else". There's nothing new under the sun. You may sound like someone else but in your own way with a new touch. For example, I feel honored when I remind people of George Michael, both with my look and sound.
I am in the process of growing a playlist for a cappella artists. If anyone wants me to add your song to my Spotify playlist (called "A Cappella Voices"), send me a link to your a cappella song and I will listen to it!
@@DamianKeyes Yeah , totally true. I paid $50 canadian for 1 month in a playlist and i could easily tell they were all bot streams. Got 10k streams in a month but no followers lol
Don’t waste your time watching this. False advertising. It’s one of the wait for it videos. Good on you for trying to make money don’t don’t lie about it. Try a different strategy champion. Your eating peoples time. And getting nowhere with it
Definetely great stuff thanks for the advice and tips but unfortunately you’re charging ridiculous amounta just like everyone one else when I could do the research and work myself and save thousands, sorry good luck not interested, wish you the best!
This channel is great and very helpful, but why is there so much focus on Spotify with these music marketing channels, when it pays the artists a pittance and there is a ridiculous amount of competition? What about RUclips? You can control when you upload, you don't have to go through some annoying distribution service and when you reach monetisation you can earn something from it if you get enough views. And why so much on Instagram? Facebook has worked much better for me.
Unfortunately RUclips is paying even less than Spotify. But otherwise you‘re right about the ads as another way to make some money out of it. Anyway you should always upload your music on all platforms, that includes RUclips.
@@elleeff3710 I just reached monetisation recently, and it's something like £3 per 1000 views at first, I don't know how that compares to Spotify. I find Spotify a real pain, you have to pay $15 just to get a single on there, and it can be weeks before it's delivered, it just seems like a big waste of money when I can put things on RUclips for free and actually see growth. The reality is there is no money in recordings anymore, unless you're Ed Sheeran or Beyonce etc.
How have your experiences been with Spotify playlisting? I want to be able to help as much as possible so let me know your struggles :)

Unfortunately RUclips is paying even less than Spotify. But otherwise you‘re right about the ads as another way to make some money out of it. Anyway you should always upload your music on all platforms, that includes RUclips.
@@elleeff3710 I just reached monetisation recently, and it's something like £3 per 1000 views at first, I don't know how that compares to Spotify. I find Spotify a real pain, you have to pay $15 just to get a single on there, and it can be weeks before it's delivered, it just seems like a big waste of money when I can put things on RUclips for free and actually see growth. The reality is there is no money in recordings anymore, unless you're Ed Sheeran or Beyonce etc.
