interesting ideas Dr.Sounds, especially the playlist one. I have heard this is a good way to promote on iTunes. Otherwise for Spotify, there is always sharemyplaylists.com.

thats great Phloide, and i just goes to show the importance of name optimisation.

I did a noise project on another platform, and for the heck of it, named the songs after annoying songs that were popular in the US during the 80s. even though the music is way too experimental for most people, I actually sell songs off of it through various ringtone outlets…

Another powerful technique to promote yourself and get heard is to inject plays of your own tracks on collaborative playlists, which can be found on many places on the internet. However don’t inject serval tracks at one time, as they may consider this as spam.
Try instead to lookup so many collaborative playlists as possible, take some time and listen to the theme of the music, , inject tracks that suit the average characteristics of the existing tracks and peoples will discover you.

You have to work a bit but if you’re going to get some money out of your music, you have to put a little effort in the promotion.

This idea was used in my latest Aquasphere, I did name one of my ambient tracks with Piano of “Earth Song”, to make the song visible when peoples looks for this popular song.
Althrough it didn’t be on the top, many new songs was discovred just on the case that it got played unfortunally due to I started to play a song with similar name before and forgot to stop or change playlist
