MusoSoup and reviews?

Have you used MusoSoup? I ran a campaign and received plenty of review offers, but it's quite difficult to make decisions between them. There are definitely quality bloggers among them, but some of the reviews looked like they were written by AI based on press releases. What would be good choices for neoclassical piano music bloggers? Do you have any favorites?

A little feedback on musesoup and reviews, which I got from there. They wrote some nice blog posts, but I can’t see any increase on spotify for artists stats on those geographical areas nor significantly more followers on instagram.

So: musesoup feels not worth the money I used on it - as almost all paid promotion I’ve tried during the last year. The only one, which I’ve found working somehow, is SubmitHub - they have prices low enough, and my pieces have been shared on some really nice playlists.

What do you mean by paid promotion? you have been running ads on instagram? because i feel like that's BY FAR the best way to grow an audience or get more streams that turn into followers on streaming platforms... now, if you just want more streams and nothing else, submit hub can help for sure.

I’ve tried insta-ad few times for minimal time to check out its effect. The options how the audience can be selected seemed quite limited for music promotion, and by the results, it felt that the audience was wrong - but of course the simple piano-playing video might’ve just been too boring. 🤔

I ’ve also collaborated with some piano-profiles with large audience, and got many likes and followers too, but I think the most difficult thing is to get the people from insta to spotify to listen to the actual pieces and not just to like the short video clips. 🤗

What kind of ads did you make and how did you define the audience?

I've experienced with ads in the past and had quite amazing results. haven't done it in a while now. In my opinion it's still the best way to grow followers, an audience, playlists... anything. But you have to do it the right way (through facebook ads manager). Never boost an instagram post, that's a waste of money.

I recommend TOM DUPREE III on YouTube. check out his channels and you will learn everything you need to know on how to run instagram ads through facebook.

Not familiar with MusoSoup so i can't say.. but i do know the ones Kjell mentionned so that would be a great start! And yeah we will see more and more articles written by AI, it's inevitable.

I've made some good experience with "Music Dances When You Sleep" and "Nagamag" via Submithub. If you're searching for a rather quick and cheap review. There may be even more quality out there though
