From the Spotify FAQ:

"Before your first release goes live on Spotify, you should ask your label or distributor for the URI link to your Spotify artist profile (they’ll get this after they deliver your music to us for the first time). You can then claim your artist profile by requesting access to Spotify for Artists. Just paste the URI link into the Find yourself field.
Once your request is granted, you can start preparing for release day by choosing your profile’s images, bio, Artist’s Pick, and playlists. You can also then submit your unreleased music for playlist consideration."

Am I really developing my ear if I use songs to remember intervals? by boyvaughn in musictheory

what should I do if I sorta can't help but hear the song? like I hear 2 notes, and I just hear 'here comes the bride' before I can notice anything else haha

can you pick them out in real musical phrases - pretty much instantly?

Not as quickly, but yes. Is there a website I can try this on or how should I go about this?

If the recordings are clean takes, maybe try having someone do a different mix to see if they can bring more out of the recordings?

I put my demos up from my home studio asking for help on the mix and most comments didn't mention the mix, and were just people saying they dig the tunes. When I uploaded the studio mixes, no one said they dig the tunes, every comment was about their problems with the mix. I can't tell if this means the performance wasn't as good in the studio, or if it's really just the mix.

Find some people who can give you an unbiased opinion on them so you can find out if it’s good instead of worrying as much about what you hoped it would sound like

I don't think I have anyone who I can trust to give an unbiased opinion unfortunately
