cooliofranco Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 I've been wanting to try to move one of my self released albums on Spotify,. anyone have any recommendations on those services that put your tracks up there? I know you gotta pay for it, and I don't want to pay much, nor do I need any bells and whistles: just get 'em there, no promo or anything like that. if it's easy enough I wanna maybe dip into putting other tunes up made by folks I like. I dunno, what could go wrong if the service isn't that expensive? I'm not looking to make money, just get stuff up there so I can listen to it at work :) Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide cooliofranco's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/95421-easiest-cheapest-way-to-get-tracks-on-spotify/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

auxien Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) Distrokid is the cheapest from my understanding. There's a whole thread already about this though, forget which subforum it's in but it's around. edit: https://forum.watmm.com/topic/94035-spotify-artist-pages/ Edited July 4, 2018 by auxien Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide auxien's signature Hide all signatures / b c / m a s t o d o n / b l o t / Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/95421-easiest-cheapest-way-to-get-tracks-on-spotify/#findComment-2646281 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TubularCorporation Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 It absolutely boggles the mind that you have to pay to get on Spotify at all, with the cut they take. no part of it and BCM 2 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide TubularCorporation's signature Hide all signatures Lagoon City (from here to eternity/when I'm sick of it) Codemus2x43 (2013-14) Golfhammer 40,000 (2014-15) Tubular Corporation (2016-17) THawkins' archive of our livestreams since 2020 Instagram (new releases, music bullshit, non-music bullshit and sometimes photos of my lunch) Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/95421-easiest-cheapest-way-to-get-tracks-on-spotify/#findComment-2646325 Share on other sites More sharing options...

no part of it Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 On 7/14/2018 at 4:33 PM, BCM said: Distrokid is the way Distrokid said that my music wasn't mastered well enough. It was mastered just fine, it was just noise/experimental music. Plus I would rather go with a company that takes a cut instead of paying monthly fees. Routenote wants you to upload mp3s, and I think I had the same problem with them, ironically. Soundrop is absolutely horrendous with syntax. I used a photograph that I deliberately blurred in photoshop. It was hi res, and they still said it was "messy" or "upscaled", then they said to further validate my release, I'd have to put text on the cover, and they said that was too blurry too. They're just shitty people who are mad that I am complaining. So I am looking for another place currently.
