You’ll pay a one-off fee of £36 (about $45) for a 21-day campaign on Musosoup, which puts your music in front of hundreds of active curators.

During your campaign, you’ll receive offers from curators who like your music and want to promote it.

Some of the offers for promotion you receive will have an associated cost, which covers the time taken to generate it, and any marketing costs to promote the content.

However, all chargeable offers must come with a free alternative promotion, so once you’ve paid your campaign fee, it is possible to receive coverage for no further cost.

We understand that sometimes music just isn’t of a sufficient quality for curators to support it. By having this approval system, we make sure you don’t spend any money unless you have a good chance of successfully promoting your music via our platform.

Submit your track and start promoting your music up to 90 days before your release date. Your 21 days start from the day your music is released, or from when you activate your campaign if you’ve already released your music. We recommend planning ahead and submitting your music early to generate as much interest and coverage as possible.

Yes! You can submit music that has already been released, whether this was recently or years ago. You can use Musosoup to promote either future or past releases. The process for submitting released music is exactly the same.

We ask that all artists have a full press kit ready with their submission, including release artwork and an artist press photo. This is to ensure our curators have everything they need instantly, to make covering your release as easy as possible.

But don’t worry if you don’t have everything to hand immediately when you submit your music, as you can easily step back into the process and add elements as and when you have them prior to your release date.

No, you can submit singles, EPs and albums to our curators, and you’ll receive coverage and offers for music promotion accordingly.

Yes. It’s not only artists themselves who benefit from using Musosoup. Many labels, managers and PR agents also use our platform to submit to curators and promote their artists’ music.

Yes. In fact, you’re more likely to receive offers in the second half of your promotion campaign. When curators log in, they’re automatically shown the tracks nearing the end of their campaign that they’ve not yet listened to. This ensures they are always discovering the best new music.

The average cost of a paid offer on Musosoup is £8.50, which can cover the cost of a curator’s time to produce the coverage, plus any marketing costs incurred to promote it.

Bear in mind that every offer made by a curator is always accompanied by a free music promotion alternative, which means artists can always receive free PR to some degree when their Musosoup campaign is active.

We’re determined to make a platform that’s fair and sustainable for both artists and curators. This is why we let our curators offer certain types of coverage and music promotions with an additional fee to cover their time and marketing costs.

However, every offer must be accompanied with a free alternative to promote your music, which you have the option of accepting for no cost.

Our platform lets you receive offers from bloggers, playlisters, podcasters, stations and influencers, giving you a wide variety of coverage options to suit your strategy and budget.

We monitor all curators on our platform closely (whether they’re asking for an additional cost or not) to ensure that they’re giving a high-quality level of coverage. This means no copy-and-pasting press releases or poor-quality writing, for example.

That hasn’t happened yet, most likely because we’ll never approve a submission if we don’t feel it will gain traction on our platform.

But if it were to actually happen, we’ll give you your next campaign free of charge so you can try again!

We currently have more than 400 active curators from more than 100 countries using the Musosoup platform to discover and promote emerging artists and new releases.

We currently have a wide range of bloggers, radio stations, podcasters, playlisters and influencers actively using our platform. This is reflected in the different types of offers you’ll receive during your campaign. A wide range of coverage is the best way to promote your music to a wider audience.
