Track Promotion

[ACYDE Music]

How do I promote my tracks?
I do not have facebook, twitter, ect...
Do you know any good soundcloud groups or other stuff to promote tracks?

On this thread I discussed the possibility of a Youtube channel for the purpose of promoting tracks made with LMMS. Interested?

I'm thinking of making a special YouTube channel for my music.
With nice cool effects, vids and other secret stuff.
It's kinda like promoting my music, without trying too hard.
"Let the listeners come to you." Is my motto.
I'm still planning it out though. Lots of work to be done.
But first, I need to finish my music.
It's long waaaay overdue.

Awww.
Give me a link for your Youtube channel.
I'll try and post it on my Twitter.
And lets see what happens from there.

I will.
But I must upload my newest songs, becaude after "Colors" I stopped uploading tracks. And I must change my Logo and Background.

EDIT
Actually, I am quite finished to complete my YouTube account. I started a completely new one. I will upload DBSTP, System Error and Space Journey and then I will send you the link.

That's a good start. Now, as you said, your channel needs an audience. Try to find (active) channels of other LMMS users and connect with them.

What kind of videos are you planning on uploading? Will your channel only feature your own music or will you also promote music of other LMMS users? The latter will likely give you a growth boost for your channel.

Also, make sure to interlink the tracks between your SoundCloud and Youtube, so that people can find your tracks easily across multiple platforms.

Ok I will do that.
I want to upload my songs (no tuts or song wips)
But promoting other tracks.... Should I create a playlist?

If the other tracks are hosted on other people's own Youtube channels, you can do that, but they won't count towards your own channel views of course. If you want to promote their tracks by uploading them to your own channel, just ask them, or if you think they don't mind having their music spread for promotional purposes, just go ahead and upload.

If you want to take it to a more formal/professional level, you can even set up a submission system, with a form like this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/16_3 ... ef=2&pli=1
