Sunday night I couldn’t sleep, so, naturally, I decided to look into getting some of the songs I’ve written available on Spotify and other streaming services. The process looked straight forward enough. I went digging through some of the tracks that I’ve recorded and that I am okay with the how they turned out. I chose one and uploaded it to the online music distributor. Filled out some information for identity verification, uploaded cover art, and clicked submit. As of the writing of this the distributor has sent it to the online stores and now, I am waiting for the stores to accept or reject it.
The whole process took maybe 30 minutes and cost me a whole $15. The $15 was for a year of unlimited uploads, so if this seems to work as advertised, the price per song should go down. Stay tuned for more updates.
