Spotify Playlists
Playlist curation is a separate business.
The usual suspects: pushers, tricksters, hustlers, behemoths (like Spotify) etc.
It is highly advised for musicians to submit their music to all these playlists and especially to Spotify Curated Playlist, cos there is a chance that thousands of people will discover them.
I have to know how this crap works, so I’ve created a thematic playlist with the music I dig.
I’ll be updating it gradually. The replaced songs will go into a separate playlist (I will post the link later).

Spotify
Fire Death Cult
Rock'n'Roll, Retro Rock, Hard Rock. Gradually Updated. When it gets to 100, the replaced songs go into a separate playlist "Eternal Cosmic Warriors Temple".
🔥 This #playlist is on fire! 🔥
I’m continuing to experiment with Spotify playlists as a promotional tool.
The more followers the playlist has, the bigger the chance for the musicians on this playlist to be discovered. Trying to make a discovery loop. We’ll see what happens.
No matter the outcome, I really enjoy this. So many really cool bands.
Follow (💚) the playlist to support the musicians.

I just saw an article "Here are 6 Marketing Strategies to Get You Featured on Playlists"
But first FOLLOW MY PLAYLIST !
If you read my blog, you should already know all this:
- Engage with fans and other artists
- Promote your content.
- Reach out to blogs and publications
- Get Verified / Spotify
- Get more followers / Spotify
- Make your own playlists / Spotify
But I can tell you how I choose songs for my playlist and it's brütal.
1. I look for a specific kind of tempo, energy and sound. Retro Rock, Hard Rock and Rock'n'Roll.
2. "the journey":
four ways to explore on spotify to find a new artist:
a. fans also like - most often
b. other playlists - second often
c. radio based on an playlist - sometimes
d. radio based on an artist - sometimes
3. So I pick an artist and start the journey
4.
a. I need the first 1-5 sec to decide if the song fits, cos tempo, energy and sound are already there.
b. long intro, guitar bzz, drum count - skip
c. "one two three four" - skip
d. high pitched guitar sound - skip unless smth is different. my ears are too sensitive to high pitch sound
e. boring sound - skip
f. song longer than 5:30 - skip. not even listen to it
g. if i feel that a band in general is good, i give a better listen to all the songs and all above is ignored.
Usually i need 40 sec - 1 min to go through all the songs of an artist.
4. I listen to all the tracks until i find either a perfect song or a couple of candidates. Just need one song, cos one song per artist.
5. the songs go to a hidden playlist
6. in the hidden playlist i listen to them one more time
7. add them to FIRE DEATH CULT
8. listen to it, cos i actually make the playlist for myself
9. if after a while, i feel the song doesn't fit the atmosphere i delete it.
10. when the song quantity of the playlist reaches 100, i will be adding new artists and removing "famous" artists and putting them in another playlist called ETERNAL COSMIC WARRIORS TEMPLE
