The Songstats Marketing Tools are an advanced collection of services that enable artists and labels to convert data into strategic marketing initiatives. A key element of this powerful suite is our Playlist Recommendation Engine, which utilizes the immense data pool gathered by Songstats to craft customized playlist suggestions for you to promote your music to.

We’re thrilled to share that Songstats has teamed up with SongRocket to incorporate their comprehensive playlist network into the Songstats Playlist Recommendations. This integration allows users to discover and connect with a wider range of playlists.

SongRocket is an AI-powered playlist promotion platform that allows artists, labels, and agencies to submit their music to playlist curators for potential inclusion in playlists. It aims to provide real music promotion by connecting artists with top music influencers and playlists on platforms like Spotify and SoundCloud.

SongRocket was founded in April 2021 by an artist and producer named Luk. He built a network of music curators and influencers around the globe, so that in minutes you can pitch songs to over 350 curators with a combined reach of more than 22 million playlist followers. Customers of SongRocket include Timmy Trumpet, Mike Williams, MOGUAI, HAWK and many more artists.

To use SongRocket, artists can join the platform and pitch their songs to carefully selected playlist curators and music influencers. If a curator likes the submitted music, they will notify the artist and inform them about the timing and manner in which they plan to share the song. This process allows artists to receive feedback on their music and potentially gain exposure to a wider audience through playlist placements.

SongRocket emphasizes the importance of getting placed in both editorial playlists and independent playlists to maximize the reach and impact of an artist’s music. While editorial playlists on platforms like Spotify can be accessed through Spotify for Artists and established distributors, independent playlist pitching can be more challenging due to the vast number of playlists and the need to filter them to find those with genuine engagement and active followers. SongRocket aims to simplify the process by providing a platform where artists can pitch their songs to a network of playlist curators and increase their chances of playlist placements.

On Songstats, you can use our Playlist Recommendations tool for personalized recommendations based on your related artists. You can filter to playlists which have contact info, and you can further narrow down to playlists in the SongRocket network.

SongRocket has provided an exclusive discount code for Songstats customers (Songstats20) to receive a 20% discount on a campaign with SongRocket that is valid until the end of September.
