New Music Friday remains one of the most coveted Spotify playlists for emerging artists in 2023. This playlist showcases the week's best new music additions on the platform and continues to draw over 60,000 daily streams, offering exceptional exposure for your tracks. The exciting news for independent artists is that, unlike in the past, now you don't necessarily need a major label deal to land your song on Spotify's editorial playlists. If your track garners enough streams and positive reactions, the Spotify algorithm may recognize your music and feature it on these sought-after playlists.

Getting your track added to Spotify editorial playlists can significantly boost your music career, providing several benefits:

1. Increased streams for your tracks and a growth in your Spotify follower count.

2. Recognition for your dedication and the quality of your music.

3. Enhanced income from your music streams.

4. The opportunity to be featured on popular Spotify playlists like New Music Friday, RapCaviar, Rock Anthems, New Pop Revolution, and many others.

While New Music Friday is well-known, there are numerous other editorial playlists, such as Dreamy Vibes, Soul Lounge, or RapCaviar, that may continue to include your songs for extended periods, offering ongoing exposure to Spotify subscribers for weeks, months, or even years.

We understand that success in the music industry takes time and effort, but we are here to guide you through the process and support you on your journey to becoming a successful artist.

How to Submit Your Music for Consideration on Spotify Editorial Playlists

The initial step to submit your music for a chance at Spotify playlist placement is to verify your artist profile. This step is crucial as it allows you to send your tracks to Spotify's playlist curators who make the playlist selections.

Here's how to do it:

1. Visit the Spotify Artist page (http://artists.spotify.com).

2. Log in with your artist account and ensure your profile information is complete and appealing.

Tips for creating an impressive Spotify artist profile:

• Add high-quality photos, logos, and artwork.

• Craft an engaging biography.

• Include links to your website and social media accounts.

Remember that while the Spotify audience may not frequently visit artist profiles, the platform's curators do. A well-crafted profile can leave a lasting impression and improve your chances of playlist inclusion.

Before you submit your playlist, keep these key points in mind:

• Your track must be unreleased to be considered for editorial playlists.

• Submit your song to Spotify at least four weeks before the release date to allow for pitching and distribution.

• The playlist submission form is accessible only through the desktop version of Spotify's website, not on mobile devices.

How to Get On Spotify Editorial Playlists

Now, let's dive into the essential steps for getting your music on Spotify editorial playlists:

1. Go to the submission page in the Spotify Artists section.

2. Under the "Upcoming" tab, look for the "PITCH A SONG" button. This button becomes available once your digital distributor has uploaded your track to Spotify. Ensure your distributor uploads your song at least four weeks before the release date.

3. The "PITCH A SONG" button will disappear once your song is live on Spotify.

The Spotify Editorial Playlist Submission Process

Once your song is uploaded, it's time to provide Spotify with the necessary track information. Here's how to do it:

• Select the main genre of your song and choose relevant subgenres.

• Specify any religious or cultural influences on your music in the "Music Culture" section.

• Highlight the emotions you intend to convey with your track in the "Moods" section.

• Describe the song style, such as live production, in-studio recording, or acoustic version, in the "Song Styles" section.

• Indicate the language of your lyrics and whether the song is a cover, remix, or instrumental.

• Mention the featured instruments in the track.

• Specify your location to target local fans and playlists near you.

The "Tell Us More" section is where you pitch your track to Spotify's curators. Provide compelling information that showcases your music's quality and your commitment to promoting it. Consider including details such as collaborations with renowned producers or artists, features in popular shows (e.g., podcasts, YouTube channels, radio, or television), and keywords that describe your target audience and genre.

Before submitting, carefully review your information to ensure it aligns with the most suitable playlists for your song. Additionally, research artists or bands that influence you to identify Spotify editorial playlists they have been featured on, whether major or niche, as follower counts don't always determine playlist quality.

Enjoy Greater Exposure and More Revenue with Spotify Playlist Placement

While your account won't show whether your track is being evaluated, keep an eye on your artist account's dashboard for newly added playlists to see if your song has been featured.
