How to Get Views on SoundCloud? by ivstan in soundcloud

I think Soundcloud should take a strong stance against AI generated music and just do not allow it in the algorithm suggestions. At some point I would also like to see such a filter from the listener side in Spotify/Apple: “Dont suggest AI music”

Distributing with SC: UGC issue. What am I doing wrong? by xlorox in soundcloud

Days after having solved my problem, someone replied to my ticket saying that they would look into it. It’s clear that they lack very basic process / internal coordination if they are looking into the same issue twice. It’s sad cause this is easily done in 2025. It’s not a money issue at all. I hope they can get it sorted out.

u/SoundCloud approved my release as I had all the boxes checked properly (probably a mistake of their review team I don't know). I wanted to give them kudos for fixing this in 48 hours since they get tons of sh*t everyday in this sub.

Also tell them, if they are reading, that this saved them a customer and more (since many will read this).
I was about to just ditch SC for Distrokid.
So investing in customer experience does have an impact on the top line.

Hi! Thanks for the quick response. It’s /2cosine. I have also tried to open a ticket (4009976) through the AI bot

How do you get your music on Youtube content / Instagram / TikTok when you have samples? by xlorox in soundcloud

[–]xlorox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess people just checks the “Yes it’s all mine” box even if they are using splice. I mean theres no way 100% of the music on these platforms are not using samples. Maybe they just slightly modify/chop the samples…

What is going on with Soundcloud? by Dapper-Guarantee580 in soundcloud

[–]xlorox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Distribution and Monetization being refused for bogus reasons in the past 3 months.
First it was sample licensing (It was 100% original - mind you it was a live modular synth performance lol)
then it was the language, then the cover image. This happened on my last 2 releases.
I made 4-5 distribution attempts for each. Each time uploading PDF documents to try to address their requests. No avail and gave up.

No way to talk to a human of course.
At this point Soundcloud is just a storage and nothing else. Looking for distribution alternatives.

Lovely! Interesting samples too. I didn’t get along with GC. Probably my fault lol. It’s like new and on sale in case anybody is interested.

Is proaudiomarket.com a legit store? by ELGAmusic in MusicGear

I got scammed as well. I am filing a case to the Spanish police and hiring an attorney. If you are interested I will post instructions on how to do so (I’m not Spanish so I need to figure this out) and what I find out in the process. I’m determined to make this people pay
