    thank you so much for all the tips!! i literally watch your videos while i'm taking notes and writing e-mails, implementing your tips in real time! it's a lot of info you guys cover in a very short amount of time and it's much appreciated by us smaller artists and youtubers who are struggling to get noticed. hopefully by using your tips i'll be able to one day grow my fan base large enough to be able to hire you guys to work with me in real-time!!! :)

    Hi guys. Great vid, it’s very helpful thank you. The only thing about distro kid is they don’t distribute to Beatport, which I need as my next releases will all be Drum & bass. From what I can see Ditto seems the best choice for me in this case. Plus they have a Spotify Playlisted feature, which helps with what you discussed in this vid.

    • @Burstimo
      @Burstimo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      We'd suggest releasing a track, just any track, and this will claim your profile on Spotify and Apple Music, then it will make things a lot easier to submit to the curators. You can gain followers without music, it depends on the content you can create, if you can create content that people want to follow daily then that's definitely the best route. A lot of artists expect because their music is good that people will want to follow them on social media which really isn't the case.
