A Game-Changer for Musicians

I recently had the pleasure of discovering GreaseRelease which has completely revolutionized my music career. As an aspiring musician, I've always struggled with getting my songs noticed and reaching a wider audience. However, this company's services have proven to be a game-changer in my journey, and I can't praise them enough for their invaluable assistance.

First and foremost, this playlist submission company boasts an extensive network of curated playlists across various platforms, including popular streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, and more. They have cultivated relationships with influential playlist curators who have an ear for exceptional music and a passion for promoting emerging artists. Through their expertise and connections, they have opened doors for musicians like myself, giving us a fighting chance to be heard.

The submission process itself is straightforward and user-friendly. The company's platform allows musicians to easily submit their tracks for consideration with just a few clicks. It's a seamless experience that saves valuable time and energy, enabling artists to focus on their craft while leaving the promotional aspect to the professionals.

What sets this playlist submission company apart from others is their personalized approach. They take the time to understand each artist's unique style, genre, and target audience. By tailoring their submissions to specific playlists that align with the artist's music, they increase the chances of getting featured in front of the right listeners. This level of attention to detail shows their genuine commitment to supporting musicians and maximizing their exposure.

Furthermore, the results speak for themselves. Thanks to the efforts of this playlist submission company, my tracks have gained significant traction and reached a wider audience than I ever thought possible. I've experienced a surge in streaming numbers, garnered new followers on social media, and even received positive feedback from fans who discovered my music through curated playlists. The impact on my career has been immeasurable.

Not only do they excel at playlist submissions, but this company also offers valuable insights and guidance to artists. They provide feedback on tracks, suggesting areas for improvement and helping artists refine their sound. Additionally, they share valuable marketing strategies and tips for building a solid online presence. It's like having a dedicated team of industry experts by your side, supporting your growth every step of the way.

In summary, the playlist submission company I have had the privilege of working with has truly exceeded my expectations. Their commitment to helping musicians thrive in the digital age is commendable. From their extensive network of playlists to their personalized approach, they have proven to be an invaluable resource for emerging artists like myself. If you're a musician looking to make your mark in the industry, I highly recommend partnering with this outstanding playlist submission company. They will undoubtedly help propel your music career to new heights.

Amazing Platform For Music Creators

For independent Artists, and even established, it has become very difficult to find (non botted) legitimate playlist. If you are looking for a group of curators, that are actually going to listen to your music, and potentially give your music a boost, look no further. Also, and yes, it may be a small upfront fee to submit your music, but keep in mind, it cost a lot more money to keep this platform, and curators running. I would highly recommend the service, just keep in mind, the music has to be good, and quality, or it will be rejected (it’s happened to me in the past), as you have real curators reviewing. Keep submitting with every release, as landing on a playlist can make a world of difference. I 100% recommend the service!

Scam and waste of money

It doesn't worth any money. A poor review, short and full of generalities and inaccuracies.

I loved the honesty in feedback

I loved the honesty in feedback I received. Music is subjective but I always embrace criticism as a chance to improve in my music. It really shows that whomever listened to my submissions, was listening intensively and was focused on giving a very truthful review.
I will remember the advice given when creating future projects.
I will definitely use this service again and would recommend 100%.

Thank you

Great service!!!

Quick response and got added to their playlist. It's just been a few days so we'll see how long they'll actually keep the song but this has been a great experience so far!

Single Indie-Pop Song Submittion

I usually make positive reviews, but I'm sorry, from my current experience GreaseRelease are currently not worth it.
And in summary - I expected more.

In details:
1. I submitted a song for a review + curating it to playlists.
2. It costs 17$ per submittion (which is ok comparing to other services)
3. They did give a detailed review of Some level, but it was just a written unorganized email, I would expect for that price they would send a detailed review organized by sections... there's huge amount of templates online for it.. I don't know..
- It does seem they have professional musical knowledge though.

4. My personal feeling from the experience - C'mon... I paid 17$ (!)
and I honestly felt like they gave me a review just a bit longer than reviews I got from other curators in SubmitHub/Groover for 1$-4$ .
- They didn't add my song to even 1 playlist!
- For *17$* ?!

5. Their negative sides were "The melodies after that and the guitars sounded a little untogether and not in sync here. If the track was better mixed, then it could have been taken to another level" - are you kidding me? I mean really? I don't know how you even decided guitars are not in sync, use a metronome. Try and measure it, I challenge you.
And by the way, I didn't mix it but the mixing process is the best one I ever heard in my long years in music.
This is a world-class song, which by the way, already has some recognition around the world, including radio stations, and already placed in almost 100 playlists! (most without even promoting it!) - and somehow, it doesn't deserve the most minimal playlist placement just out of respect from GreaseRelease for 17$.

I will let you, the reader, feel free to listen to the song here, this, according to GreaseRelease is a "bad mix" - search for "Benji Shohet - Greater" in Spotify or YouTube etc.

I would be really happy to change my review here.

Will contact GreaseRelease and will update :)

Hi Benjamin,

The reason we charge $17 is because your track is submitted to 80-90% of the curators on our network. The feedback you received is from the curators themselves. If you had to submit to each of them individually via other submission platforms, you'd probably have to spend more. We're trying our best to build an easy way for artists to submit to multiple curators with 1-single click and we're working hard on making this process smoother and better every single day.

Regardless, we apologize for the experience you had and that you felt the feedback was inaccurate. We hate seeing dissatisfied artists and we'd love to resolve this, please send us an email at support@greaserelease.co

Not worth it.

My song did not get placed although I have placed it on 8 playlists through Submithub two weeks before release date. The critique of the song was not helpful, and full of inaccuracies. They were trying to sound like experts giving precise criticism and what was wrong with the song in minute detail, but none of what they said was true or relevant. $17 for a rejection and a thorough but incorrect critique? I could have done better with Submithub for $2. Not worth it.

Kinda felt like a scam

Kinda felt like a scam. I feel like they use that 17$ Fee as a way to basically charge you money for playlisting but in reality I did some research and we are basically funding a musician named Tushar mathur. He basically is collecting money and probably not even reviewing peoples music. I don’t mind the 17$ but just wanted to give other fellow musicians a heads up.

Hi Karasha, this is Tushar, my face is pretty much plastered on the website and I mention my name in the footer of every email too so there's no secret there, I'm the founder of Greaserelease.

You aren't "funding" me, we run a service where we connect artists and curators and our curators most definitely reviewed your music. You can read more about how the service works in the FAQs section on our website.
Also, I apologize for the experience you had, feel free to email support@greaserelease.co and we'd love to resolve this! :)

GreaseRelease are serious professionals, really checking your tracks, evaluating them thoroughly and (!) giving very detailed description! I was amazed by their exact definitions!

GreaseRelease are serious professionals, really checking your tracks, evaluating them thoroughly and (!) giving very detailed description! I was amazed by the definitions they used to evaluate my music tracks: "track is a bit stagnant and monotonous...doesn't hold the listener's interest for the entirety of the play time… , hook here was somewhat underdeveloped … , track was missing an enthusiastic vocal performance, which really seals the deal… , unnecessarily slow for the nature of the track… , dynamics were quite stagnant … , crests and troughs through the progression of the track… , immersive listening experience… , lacking an out-right melodic hook that is exciting and memorable enough to keep the listener interested…. , transitions were quite abrupt and pulled us out of the listening experience … , lyrics need more depth and substance which we didn't really find here." Well, the guys know the business! This has been a first professional review of my music, and I can't agree more! Nobody teaches you about "hooks" and "immersive listening experience…"! Music is really subjective matter, but these guys know the business and give a great advice. They accepted some of my tracks, while helped correct the rest! Thanks & kind regards from SF.DM.
