I did everything you taught with my first song on Spotify after a long time not uploading and I just got in an Editorials playlist in my country, it's a small one with 21k followers but still, super excited. Thank you so much.
Wooooo huge congrats man!!!!!
@@signature_d Thanks :D
Dude … this prolly the first time i’m commenting on someone’s youtube vid in Years , i just wanted to let you know that your content is super chill n u gotta keep it up
Thanks man! As soon as I get a break form school I'll be uploading again!
This is very insightful bro, thank you so much. I always struggle with pitching
Gotchu dawg
great video I love the way you just explained it in a chill way that wasnt so overwhelming. So many music promotion channels make me feel like If I dont make 1000 reels right now then my music carrer is over lol. signature d is a chill dude. new fan achieved!
Ayy thank you!! Yea it really isn't that deep fr
I've watched several videos on pitching and yours has been the most helpful and resonates with me most. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Glad I could help:)

Ayee preciate it Chaz
Great info!
Is there anything different we should do when it's the first time pitching a song from a debut EP?
Nah I approached it the same way!
Thanks for sharing your insights. I learned a lot. Your music is great too! Let’s collab on some Lofi Hiphop.
Never saw anyone using a kick mic like this 😂 but it works
gotta work with what you got!
Nice work! Thanks!
Thank you!
Hi Signature D, for the pitches that landed you on editorial playlists, did you always pitch it over a month before the song came out? A time frame would be really great! Thanks for the video.
No, i have pitched a song as late as 2 weeks in advance and it landed.
it's very helpful Thank you
Glad I could help!
How do you write a pitch to them? I can only smash the "pitch" button on the Spotify for artist App but not write something to describe the track. Also, I'm from Germany but I do English rap. Do you suggest to place a country with a native English language audience? Great video!
I did some research about you and your music, it's inspiring that you hardly have a strong social media presents but I believe your music is so beautiful that you don't need a strong social media presents. So I learned something from your releases on spotify and that is you release your music with labels right ? perhaps it's that key to open some of the ways to get playlisted. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm just learning as well. I feel like any one can do it. it's not a sense of luck but good quality work or music... Let's have a convo about this I want to learn more
Thank you! I think so. At least thats how it has worked for me personally. Me signing over specific songs to labels has seemed to open alot of doors editorially. However, there are tons of artists that just get on editorials without any help. so I think its a combination of luck and good work. I will say though, it seems like the hardest part is getting on intially. Once you get on once, you are much more likely to get repeatedly placed.
@@signature_d Alright brother, thank you very much your insight was very helpful. My last question If you say good work you mean good quality sound right. Sometimes I think to myself that it's the type of music we make as artist and how It sounds like for example if I make a beat that is similar to Oneheart or snowfall it is more likely to get playlisted but if you introduce and different type of lo-fi it will be difficult for curators to pick wouldn't you agree ?
I love you! ahahah thank you so much!
haaha of course happy to help!
Nuff respect for the tips. Do you usually do your pitch at least a month in advance or every 2 weeks?
I pitch at least 3 weeks in advance. basically as soon as i have the option to pitch, i pitch
Hey man, thanks for the video. I have a few questions if you don't mid me asking. Since me and bunch of people are making lofi cover themes form popular movies or anime, when we pitch and they ask "is this a cover", should I go with yes or no? Because before pitching I said it's original tune and you know you have to pay yearly fees for cover songs and nobody is doing that hahaha
So should I go with "it's a cover" or what?. THANKS!
Hi! I don't have much experience with posting covers unfortunately. I try to err on the side of caution because I don't want to make a cover and then get sued ahah. Maybe check out a CZcamsr named L.Dre. I know blew up off of his remix of the Steven universe theme and didn't ask permission from Disney. So I think it just depends on what theme you are working with.
thanks so much brooo
Thanks for watching!
Hey thanks so much for this. I’m curious to know the fate of this pitch. How did things work out?
This one didn't but another song "It will be okay" from the same EP landed which was the second pitch
@@signature_d Got it. Thanks
When Can i Add My Canvas ???
You should be able to as soon as it appears on your spotify for artists
Heyy...im bit confused i cant find any music under upcoming tab when i release my music instantly. Do i need to set a future release date for my new album when i release it through distrokid?
Yea it needs to be a couple days in advance, you can't pitch a song after its been released.
Yup, got it..ty@@signature_d
I wanna added to nature sounds with birds and rain my distributor is amuse i don't have many followers can you help me with description and release date?
Im sorry, I’m not sure exactly what you are asking
Did u get placements only by early pitching it on Spotify in the beginning of your career or did you make promotion outside of Spotify? Thank you. I just released my second track so this information could be very helpful for future releases. :)
I didn't land on an editorial playlist until my 4th year of producing music. up until then, I just did my own promotion and signed publishing deals with some labels
thank you. in the early 2000s i was producing drum&bass and had several vinyl releases. vinyl was still a thing. These times are over. Im trying to come back producing lofi hip hop...but it seems to be really hard to get heard these days.@@signature_d
very inspiring :)
Thank you!
Blessings
where do you send these pitches??
On your Spotify for artists dashboard
Which label do you release with beside Tsunami sounds bro?
Lopills, stereofox, brunch collect. Mainly Lopills and Stereofox rn though.
Why do you not self release
I would love to Collab with you. Best kitchen from Ghana
almost 200k montly listeners but only 700 followers on spotify??
yea all playlist based, editorials and labels
You said yes it is an instrumental, but then you said it has vocals? WTF??
I'm not singing words on it, just using my voice as an instrument. You can check the song out and then understand for yourself:)
@@signature_d vocals means voice
Great insight thanks 👊
Thanks for watching!
