I love how the Spotify for artists page itself wasn't fucking accurate or updated. Thank you for this.

Hey Ryan, I submit to Spotify Editorial Playlists 4 weeks before every release. Just to let you know, I was able to open my Spotify for Artists account before my first release, AND successfully submit to Editorial Playlists for my first release.

I was able to pitch my first ever release as well. I had to contact customer service first and they had to verify information with my UPC.

Hey, I loved this comment! It's awesome to hear about your diligence in submitting to Spotify Editorial Playlists. It's not often that artists manage to get access to Spotify for Artists before their first release, and it's even more impressive that you successfully submitted for playlist consideration right off the bat. I’m doing some research on best practices for artists who are looking to maximize their reach, and I think your experience could offer some valuable insights. I’d love to buy you some lunch over a phone call to talk more about this!

Hi, I had a problem with my latest release as it was released under another Artist's account. Is it still possible to submit my song even though it's now been released ?

Goos synopsis of the submitting to Editorial Playlists Ryan. My only quibble is that in the Description you did not address how youplanned to market/promote the song, which was in the query.

I'm able to pitch a song for one of my songs on the upcoming release, I'm not a featured artist and it's not a collection so I should be able to add a description but it's not letting me ad a description? Someone please provide some insight or information as to how this can be fixed

Can I use my Spotify for artist account to pitch for other people's song

They never accept any of mine 🤣

I'm new to this. I haven't yet submitted any songs to a digital distributor and would like advice on timing. I have 30 singles mixed and mastered and I would like all of them to be considered by Spotify for their Editorial Playlists. How do I time the submission of each song to get them all in Spotify's queue in a timely manner? Like, should I upload them all to my digital distributor then spread out the release dates?

I have a question, can i submit my song to ANY type of curator playlist if it's already been released? I know you said you can't but not any form of it at all?

Hi Ryan! thanks! I understand it has to be an unreleased track for playlist consideration. But it is ok to release a taster eg 15 sec of my track prior to release (like in my socials or in an advert)?? Would it still be considered an unreleased track?

Teasers are ok to post whenever,unless your label says otherwise. It's a good idea to make teasers and make people excited!

Hi! How long usually does it take to hear back from Spotify if they’ve accepted the pitch?

They will not tell you if you've gotten denied or they haven't listened to your submission yet, you will only POSSIBLY be notified if your submission is accepted.

Where’s the link to your song ???

I listened to this song, and it did not sound like it featured live drums, but you chose drum kit as one of the instruments on the track. I'm just trying to figure out what drum kit means, because I understand it to mean acoustic drums.

It can encompass electronic or synthesized drums too

In your opinion, would a person who just uploaded their first song, benefit from paying someone to submit to Spotify Curators on their behalf?

If you are paying someone from an online agency, I would not recommend it, unless you personally know the person or agency. Almost every submission service is a scam, they will have you pay money and place you on user-made playlists, not Spotify Editorial Playlists, and then they will generate fake streams for that playlist, you will get great numbers, but if Spotify even suspects that you are paying for streams or playlist spots, your music will be removed, you will be banned from uploading songs, and they can even take back any revenue you made.

Is there a service that can submit your song to various playlists and curator on multiple streaming platforms for u. Its a lot of work to do it yourself to individual curators
