hello! im an electronic indie/underground trap producer and after 5 years of making music for myself I decided to actually start releasing my music on SoundCloud
I started releasing on July 27th and have put out 8 songs so far. i bought Artist Pro cause my friends that have used SoundCloud suggested it and am pretty happy with my numbers so far; 6,355 total streams, 132 likes, 15 comments, 14 reposts and 34 followers, with a remix at 3k and a recent song at 1.5k.
The only real marketing I’ve done is an Instagram account thats up to 122 followers where I mostly post cover arts when I drop and random photography and videos I take. But even this account is pretty minimal.
I think the main thing I want to do is gain more followers, but I’m not really sure how to go about it. Most of my followers right now are people I know in person, so I’m trying to figure out how to branch out and get my music in front of more people. I’d really appreciate any advice on what has worked for you and what to make of the engagement I have had so far!
