Your First Steps to Connecting With Curators, Growing Playlists, and Discovering Playlists You Love
PlaylistFeed is designed to help artists and curators build real momentum through playlists. Whether you’re trying to gain more exposure for your music or expand your influence as a curator, PlaylistFeed offers a clear, professional environment to support that goal.
If you’re new to the platform, this guide will walk you through the essential steps to set up your account, start engaging with the community, and use PlaylistFeed effectively.
Step One: Set Up a Complete Profile
One of the most important things you can do early on is complete your profile. This helps build trust and credibility with both artists and curators on the platform. Your profile is what others see when deciding whether to accept a submission, collaborate on a playlist, or follow your work.
A good profile should include:
- A clear profile picture (either a professional headshot or recognizable logo)
- A short, informative bio (mention your genre focus, curatorial style, or artist background)
- Relevant links (Spotify profile, top playlist, website, or Linktree)
Taking the time to complete your profile ensures you’re taken seriously and helps you stand out from inactive or unverified users.
Step Two: Create and Boost a Playlist
After setting up your profile, the next step is to create your first public playlist. Creating and boosting a playlist allows it to be featured on the Feed and in the Explore tab. This increases visibility among curators, artists, and listeners within your genre.
To get started:
- Click “Create” and upload a playlist with a clear title and caption
- Choose appropriate genre and mood tags
- Click “Boost” to make it visible across the platform
Boosting also unlocks access to your Curator Network, which enables artists to send you submissions directly. It’s the key to beginning your curation journey on PlaylistFeed.
Step Three: Connect with Other Curators
One of PlaylistFeed’s strengths is its network of active curators. As you establish your presence, it’s important to connect with others who share similar musical interests.
To do this, explore other curator profiles and playlists using the “Explore” tab. If a playlist is boosted, you can request to join that curator’s network. Once accepted, you’ll be able to send submissions directly and collaborate more easily within the platform.
Step Four: Engage with Music and Playlists
Engagement is a key part of being successful on PlaylistFeed. Instead of waiting for activity to come to you, take time to explore and support other users.
Follow playlists that align with your style, like tracks that stand out, and share content that resonates with your audience. The more active and consistent you are, the more likely you are to gain visibility within the platform.
Step Five: Begin Submitting Your Music
If you’re an artist, PlaylistFeed allows you to submit songs directly to curators. The process is straightforward, and the platform includes tools that let you track your submissions in real time.
To start:
- Navigate to the Feed or Explore tab
- Look for playlists that fit your genre and mood
- Tap “Submit” to send your track directly to the curator
Keep in mind that relevance matters. It’s important to choose playlists where your music will truly fit. Submitting to the right playlists increases your chances of being accepted and helps maintain your reputation on the platform.
Submissions should be clear and professional. While the platform doesn’t require long messages, adding a short note about why your song fits the playlist can sometimes help.
Build Your Reputation Over Time
PlaylistFeed isn’t just a submission tool. It’s a community built around high-quality music discovery and ethical curation. Your reputation is built on how you interact with other users; from how you maintain your playlists to how respectfully you approach submissions.
To make the most of the platform:
- Keep your profile updated
- Post playlists that are thoughtfully curated and regularly refreshed
- Submit music selectively and professionally
- Respond to submissions with clarity if you’re a curator
- Promote playlists that you’ve been added to
