Getting a song on Spotify is a great way to reach a wider audience and gain more popularity as an artist. It can be difficult, however, to get your music on Spotify if it doesn’t already exist there. Luckily, there are a few different ways you can make this happen.
Distribute Your Music with an Online Distribution Platform
One of the best ways to get your music on Spotify is by using an online distribution platform like CD Baby, Tunecore, or Distrokid. These platforms allow you to upload your music and then distribute it across multiple streaming services including Spotify. With the help of these services, getting your music on Spotify is easy and takes very little effort from you.
Submit Your Music Directly to Spotify
If you don’t want to use an online distribution platform, you can also submit your music directly to Spotify for consideration. To do this, go to spotifyartists.com and click “Submit Music” at the top right corner of the page.
This will open up a form where you can upload your songs along with some other information about the track such as genre and release date. Once you’ve submitted the form, it will take some time for Spotify to review and consider adding your music to their library.
Reach Out to Playlist Curators
Another way to get your song on Spotify is by reaching out directly to playlist curators who might be interested in including it in one of their playlists. Many curators have websites or social media pages where they post the types of songs they are looking for and contact information where artists can reach out with their music for consideration. Reaching out directly like this isn’t guaranteed but it’s worth a try if you think one of their playlists would be a good fit for your song.
Conclusion
Getting a song on Spotify that isn’t already there is possible but it does take some effort from the artist. The best way to do this is by using an online distribution platform like CD Baby or Tunecore which makes the process much easier and faster than trying to submit directly or reaching out individually to playlist curators. No matter which method you choose though, getting your music on one of the world’s largest streaming services will still require some work from you so make sure that you’re prepared before taking that next step!
