The Playlist Project
The Playlist Project is a free to use playlisting service ran by musicians for musicians, negating effects of algorithm and virality. Every week a themed 20 song playlist will be released on Spotify highlighting the music of emerging artists. One of the biggest issues in the music industry today is over saturation of content on streaming platforms, artists find it difficult to be discovered and music fans find it difficult to discover new artists. The Playlist Project connects the artists and fans, matching tracks with mood curated on quality, sound, and energy. You can be heard today by submitting your track and signing up down below.
