I have been on sound cloud a very long time and just bought artist pro. I am a bit of a procrastinator and stupidly believed if you make good music, listeners will come. I kind of now know this to no longer be true. I am looking for advice on promoting my Soundcloud music without play fraud. I use my socials now but am wondering if I am missing out on an idea like playlists, something you can do on the app?, or particularly something I never ever thought about, thx. Happy to share anything I have learned, one thing is that soundcloud has been a consistent source of plays of my music compared to YouTube ( now ruined by ai music burying everything too deep and their very needy algorithm to keep your stuff found), bandcamp ( most amazing platform but doesn’t have the exposure/listener numbers niche, even after all these years). Soundcloud is easily the best place for finding innovative music, there I add nothing else like it.

Part 2 of my adventure into futuristic synthwave. Huge soundscapes backed by strong beating drums and a driving bass. Love the moving ambient pads I made from huge delays.

Sounds based on classic Moog, Jupiter and Sequential Pro1. Made my own Shimmer reverb in ableton and it is as good as any. Feel like it is necessary to write this to make it clear there is no AI involved in my music, I play the keyboards and program all the sounds. Enjoy.

The first time I disputed and it was put back up, then 4 days later a full strike occurred due to the same reason ( same video) with a week ban. Ever since then my YouTube channel gets next to no traction. It was on fire previously. The video had multiple tracks that I made, however YouTube don’t even tell you which track it is. It is infuriating.
