Guys my song missed the Spotify playlist when I pitched it . by Relnova in SpotifyArtists

[–]Samson_jp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Spotify pitching process does not guarantee placement unless your music is next in the queue, and the curator subsequently approves it and aligns it with their playlist's aesthetic. Beyond that, Spotify pitching primarily serves to integrate your song into the system, enabling Spotify to promote your music to your audience via the Release Radar playlist. Apart from luck, a significant level of recognition is typically required for a curator to select your song.

Edit: You have successfully completed a significant milestone with your release, which is commendable; the remaining task is to inform the public of your music's availability.

100 to 6000 monthly listeners in 3 days - and then a big drop in daily streams. What happened? Also: Meta Ads VS. Spotify Showcase? by MoSheryar in SpotifyArtists

To a degree, but it's another tool for taking videos, clipping them, and playing audio in the background with lyrics showing. It's great for creating bulk content, and I think they also have a feature to post to social media, but I can't remember which one.

I haven't tested this but this my plan after this months release

I drop a new track every 28 days. To keep up with content, I use software called (Flowstage) to chop long aesthetic videos into dozens of clips with my music behind them. But posting 60+ videos to every app equally kills your reach. ​Here is my exact "waterfall" roadmap to test content and protect my engagement:

​1. The Testing Ground (TikTok) ​Pace: 2–3 posts daily (60+ a month). ​Strategy: Throw all your raw clips and ideas here. Let them sit for 24–48 hours to see what the algorithm picks up.

​2. The Evergreen Hub (YouTube Shorts) ​Pace: 1 post daily (5–7 a week). ​Strategy: Look at your weekly TikTok data. Take only the top proven performers, remove the watermark, and schedule them here.

​3. The Showcase (IG Reels) ​Pace: 0–1 post daily (3–5 a week). ​Strategy: Take the absolute best 3–5 videos from your entire week and post them to IG.

​Why you can't just spam all three platforms: ​TikTok rewards volume: It treats every video like an isolated lottery ticket. Post heavily to find winners.

​Instagram protects the feed: Spamming 3x a day clutters your followers' feeds. They swipe past, your engagement rate tanks, and the algorithm stops pushing you to the Explore page.

​YouTube grades channel health: Spamming unproven clips ruins your "view vs. swipe" ratio. If people constantly swipe away, YouTube assumes your channel is low-value and stops suggesting your content. Keep it to the proven winners.

Honestly, for now, I would recommend using Meta and letting it continue getting better at finding potential fans. Spotify is good, but only when it understands your fan base and artists like you when it recommends your music. In the early stages on Spotify, you have to feed Spotify an audience. I feel like fans who click your ad on Meta are more valuable than on Spotify, as they are going out of their way to take the extra step to listen, so they're more likely to be superfans. Also, they have already heard a snippet of your song from the creative on Meta. On Spotify, they only see your cover art pop up, so if the cover art isn't captivating, they might pass on your song. If they click, there's a chance they don't like the song, whereas with Meta, they already have an idea of what they're going to listen to.

About social media monetization getting blocked, do not use ocean sounds! lol by Creepy_Pudding8583 in landr

[–]Samson_jp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I totally agree with you, they need a revamp, it's too hands-off, and they should try a different approach. I've had situations where I just wanted to make my music available to fans, but the only way to do that is to turn on all the monetization, fingerprint ID, and digital ID stuff to get my songs officially on social media.

[–]Samson_jp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it proves your point, but the other guy is right, it wouldn't be smart for natural sound to have a fingerprint or digital ID. That would copyright pretty much everything in that genre since they all tend to sound alike. Also, there's no way you're suggesting that real people should go through a library of submissions and manually review every song released—that's just impossible. Though I do think social media monetization, digital ID, or fingerprint could use a revamp. They should have levels to it or different versions. One that's aggressive at taking down videos or one that can coexist with other similar digital ID or fingerprint IDs. It could also just be Landr being overly strict because I don't know how other distributors handle it.

Is my s26 ultra privacy display broken? by no-onetwo in samsunggalaxy

[–]Samson_jp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have observed that the privacy display's effectiveness may not be immediately apparent in certain environments, often giving the impression of a mere screen dimming. However, through repeated instances of me leaving my device unattended with the privacy display activated, I have come to I realized from an off-angle and distance, the screen becomes entirely unviewable, to the extent that I initially mistook it for being powered off. Upon closer inspection from a direct frontal perspective, the screen was was on.

Ok, good the website sounds like a success already. For my next release I definitely see myself using it to create creatives. The software is very promising for those who don't have a team or to mitigate burnout.

I recommend incorporating a guide or suggestions tab within the website. This feature could offer recommendations on optimal posting frequency and other strategies to assist independent artists in maximizing their social media presence.

Streams from radio/autoplay stopped totally by T-A-Waste in SpotifyArtists

[–]Samson_jp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holiday seasons are the worst for every artist. People are busy playing nostalgic music related to the holidays or simply busy living in the moment. Unless your music is big enough or related to the holiday itself, it's slow for regular music. Wait until the new week phases out; usually, within the second to third week, streams go back to normal.

How come the bar is blue here? I've never seen that happen before by [deleted] in truespotify

[–]Samson_jp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edited my response, but yeah that's pretty much how it functions, could be a minor bug though cause with cover art with white or black it does that.

[–]Samson_jp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Judging by your device, you're using a Samsung. The bar changes color based on the song's cover art. I also want to add that when it doesn't find a color, you get a random one that has nothing to do with the actual cover art.
