When you run a campaign on Musosoup, you’ll receive a range of coverage from curators—either through direct offers or by reaching out via the marketplace.
Coverage spans reviews, interviews, playlisting, radio play, and social media content. We’re constantly evolving the types of opportunities available, working closely with curators to ensure they provide artists with high-quality press, promotional exposure, and creative content.
Each type of coverage can support different goals—whether you’re building assets for marketing (EPKs, websites, album materials, or industry pitches), reaching new fans, improving your presence across search engines, streaming platforms, and social media, or strengthening your press history to build credibility with tastemakers and industry professionals.

Summary
Reviews
A review is a curator’s critique of your music—often published on a blog or in a printed publication, though it may also appear in podcasts or video formats. Reviews range from short-form (around 200 words) to long-form, in-depth writeups of 1,000+ words. They might focus on a single track, EP, or a full album. Reviews are always honest—curators share their genuine impressions, which can provide artists with both validation and constructive feedback.
Interviews
Classic Q&A-style interviews allow curators to explore your story, background, and release in more detail. Formats vary—some are quick-fire, while others are long-form or focused around themes like inspiration, production techniques, or live shows. Interviews are a great way to help fans and industry alike understand who you are beyond the music.
Features
A feature is a deep-dive article exploring your artistic journey, inspirations, and creative process. While it may mention your latest release, it’s not limited to it. A feature provides a lasting piece of PR content that showcases who you are as an artist and offers insight into how you write, produce, and evolve.
News Posts
News posts are concise writeups announcing your release, often adapted from your press release or EPK. These posts are usually factual and are sometimes paired with a short review. They’re ideal for getting the word out across multiple platforms and reaching geographically diverse audiences.
Radio & Podcasts
Your music may be played on digital radio stations, added to their 24/7 streams, or featured in curated shows. Some curators also host podcasts where they discuss and showcase new releases. Radio and podcast placements are often paired with interviews and can expose your music to loyal listener bases over repeated airings.
Social Posts
Social coverage ranges from a simple shoutout to reaction videos, stories, and reels. Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube are the most common platforms, and social posts often accompany other coverage types like reviews and interviews. These posts are highly shareable and are excellent for building momentum around your release.
Playlisting
Curators may offer to add your track to their playlists—always free of charge on Musosoup. If they like your music, they’ll include it. Our focus is on strategic playlisting: placing music on smaller, genre-specific playlists with highly engaged listeners. These often generate stronger engagement—like saves, repeat listens, and completions—which signal quality to Spotify’s algorithm. This increases your chances of landing on algorithmic playlists such as Discover Weekly or Release Radar. We strictly prohibit pay-for-placement playlisting in line with Spotify’s guidelines.
