Do you want to get on up to 10 (TEN!!!) playlists for just 1 (ONE) premium credit? 😲
I've been a curator on Daily Playlists since early 2022. I get on well with the developers (H & J)Â and frequently contribute to helping making the site better for curators and artists.Some of the enhancements they have released have been influenced by my feedback. The developers know that I am a honest curator out to help artists get heard. Watch one of my YouTube videos if you need evidence.
What makes me a good curator?
As an artist myself, I can evidence that a lot of curators leave you on a playlist for no more than a month. This isn't really enough time for you to get enough streams to justify the money you spend. Some don't even get you a stream. I believe in giving you time on a playlist. Think of the saying "It's a marathon not a sprint". Getting streams is a slow process and anyone who claims to get you immediate results should be seen as a red flag.
I can't guarantee you thousands of streams. No one can guarantee you instant results. Be suspect of anyone that boasts such a thing. What I can assure though is time and quantity if you read on.
I offer slow stream numbers over multiple playlist adds over months and even years.
Evidence: One of the ways I judge other curators is to see how long tracks are on a playlist for. Open my 30 days playlist and as the name suggests, tracks are there for about 30 days and then are removed and this is common on premium curators. My research shows that most of my premium submissions to curators are removed between 20 and 60 days and like I said above, this is not good value for me. Open up another example of mine, '500 Yoga and Meditation Songs' and you will see that submissions here are on that playlist for almost a year. Yes, there is a lot of songs on this playlist, but you are given time to get streams over the course of months. Far better value as a premium submission.
I'm not here to steal your money. I have rules which I need you to read and understand. If you don't meet my rules, I advise you don't send me your tracks and you use someone else. Please ensure you have read the below rules to see if I am worth submitting to.
Grid Matrix: At the bottom, you will see a matrix of all my playlists (premium and non premium). You can work out where your track is best suited.
IMPORTANT: There are some curators who have a 99% approval rate and will stick you on a rubbish playlist. I have tested this out and compared my streams with my Artists for Spotify and these curators rip you off by getting you no streams. Don't be fooled by a high approval rate. It's a trick by some curators to get you to submit to them.
THE IMPORTANT STUFF: THE RULES: 📖
Only my 30 Day playlist has a very high approval rate but that is NOT worth a premium submission alone. This is the reason why I have high approval.
RELEASE DATE OF 2024 OR 2025 ONLY. I might except 2023 and before but you will only really get on 1 or 2 playlists at most.
VOCAL FREE is the main theme of my playlists. Lyrics will limit how many playlists I add you to.
DURATION OF 2-4 MINUTES IN LENGTH: Look at my playlists and you will see short tracks. I like a quick turnover of music.
AMBIENT MUSIC is the main theme of my playlists. I am open to other instrumentals and other genres but calming music is best.
Still want to submit? Here is how I do Premium Submissions. Please read: 📖
You send me a premium submission.Â
I will open your track in Spotify and listen so you will get a stream if not two.Â
I then follow the below steps:Â
PLACEMENT 1: Â Just for submitting, I add most tracks to my '30 Days of Great New Artists and New Music' playlist. Any curator with a 100% approval rate in terms of premium credits is actually breaching the official rules and should be avoided. I will add most but not all tracks here. Please listen to this playlist as much as you can during your 30 days placement.

PLACEMENT 2: If your song has a 2024 or 2025 release date and sounds half decent, I'll add it onto my playlist '2024 2025 Unsigned and Unleashed'. This is not guaranteed but a large % of tracks are added here as a thank you. You will stay on here for up to 9 months. The majority of tracks on here are premium submissions so follwo the playlist and support fellow artists.
PLACEMENT 3: I prefer short music so that listeners get through tracks quickly. If you send me anything less than three minutes and is 'relaxing', I'll see if there is a spot for you on 'Relaxing <3 minute Gems' playlist.
PLACEMENT 4: I prefer chillout music but I do get sent lots of pop music so if you send me a decent pop song, I will add you to ‘Pop Party Perfection’ which contains all the classics. It’s a brilliant pop playlist of all the classics and worth following.
PLACEMENT 5: If I like the track and is something I will want to listen to again, I will add to my 'Daily Playlists Premium Submissions'. Similar to placment 2, this can be for up to 9 months.. This is full of songs I have enjoyed so hopefully you will to. THIS CONTAINS ONLY PREMIUM SUBMISSIONS.
Please support those who have paid money by listening here : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2YtghGJkyhD1SWF0xp3Q6i?si=3a9464a508be47df
PLACEMENT 6: If I deem your music to be 'relaxing', I will add to 'Relaxing Music 100'. This is a First in First out so your track will be on there until I add another 100 songs. This is also vocal free. Please listen and support new artists who will probably do similar music to you. ONLY PREMIUM SUBMISSIONS are added here.
Thats 6 playlist placements already and I've not even pressed the accept or decline button yet so keep reading....
PLACEMENT 7: I will then accept or decline your track in Daily Playlists. If you read the above carefully, you might be able to work out where you were added to even without me telling you. You should then recieve an email with a premium placement email.
PLACEMENT 8:Â As a bonus, If I accept, I will also add some but not all tracks to a playlist where I think your music will do best e.g. Peaceful Piano or 500 Yoga songs.Â
Currently, I can only add a track to one playlist if I press accept. I am trying to get the developers to change this and select more than one playlist. You will need to check out my playlists to find other playlists. Sorry about this. Watch this space as I will get this fixed.
Some playlists also allow you to stay on a for a whole year. This will help you get a much better return on your premium credit. If you qualify, read this link:

LONG TERM - I'm looking for good quality music that I will be listening to in 10+ years time and become a fan of your music. Good music will be suitable for placements 9 and 10.
PLACEMENT 9: If and when you come off the above playlists, the music I love most will stay with me hopefully forever on my ' Recycle Bin of Great Songs'. This could be you if you send me beautiful music. This is one of the best playlists on Spotify:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5IqevMjXMLNachNS3Of8Ya?si=dac75e3346544fd3
PLACEMENT 10: The best tracks will also end up on my ‘Greatest Playlist on Spotify’ playlist. This just contains every great song ever recorded. It’s the only playlist you need really.
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0WkLHnJvj89WZLbkBPW3QG?si=14967b247ad946f1
So that's up to 10 playlist adds for the price of 1 credit. 10 placements is almost impossible but the better music I get sent, the more playlists you get put on. The more you understand the rules, the easier it will be for you to get an idea of where you will be placed.
I am a curator that likes calming music. My playlists centre around 'vocal free' music. If you listen to my playlists, they revolve around these different types of vocal free:
Atmospheric music with a Space feel
Dark and gloomy with a sinister and cold feel
Instrumental music like Piano, cinematic and a happy tempo
Chilled beats
Nature sounds with a feeling of the outdoors
General chilled music perfect for passive background music
Please don't send me music just because you think you will get on several playlists, you risk just getting on the 30 days playlist and you might as well do that for free on my other page.
Here are three examples which I hope clears things up for you.
Example 1:
 If you send me a banging techno song from 2021, you are only going to get onÂ
PLACEMENT 1 - 30 Days of Great New Artists and New Music and that won't be a good use of your budget. I'm here to help, not waste your budget.
Example 2:
You send me a 2024 pop song with singing, synths etc, you are only POSSIBLY going to get on:
PLACEMENT 1 - 30 Days of Great New Artists and New Music because I add all tracks here as a thank you.
PLACEMENT 2 - 2024 2025 New Finds and Top Hits because the release date is 2024.
PLACEMENT 4 -‘Pop Party Perfection’  but this is not guaranteed.
PLACEMENT 5 - Daily Playlists Premium Submissions but this is not guaranteed.
This is a risk you need to decide on.
Example 3:Â
Below the matrix is a Premium Submission for a track called 'The White Lodge' by Aftersun, released in 2024 and is 02:19 in length. It got on 7 playlists:
PLACEMENT 1 - 30 Days of Great New Artists and New Music because I add all tracks here as a thank you
PLACEMENT 2 - 2024 2025 New Finds and Top Hits because the release date is 2024
PLACEMENT 3 - Yes because I enjoyed the track and is under 3 minutes
PLACEMENT 4 - No because the track is not really 'Pop'
PLACEMENT 5 - Daily Playlists Premium Submissions because I liked he track and was submitted as a premium submission
PLACEMENT 6 - Relaxing Music 100 because I classify thistrack as 'relaxing'. You can't see it in this picture but is at the bottom out of sight
PLACEMENT 7 - Peace and Quiet because I accepted the track and this is the best Premium playlist I can add to currently
PLACEMENT 8 - Sleepy Space Sounds as it also sounds great on this playlist.
PLACEMENT 9 - No but could end up here.
PLACEMENT 10 - No because ambient music doesn't tend to be added here
So 7 playlists for one premium credit. It's that easy. Hopefully this is clear.
REMEMBER: Nothing is guaranteed but I will do my best.
So, short, relaxing vocal free music is what I am looking for and is more likely to get on multiple playlists. Long and loud music won't proove to be good value so I advise you to look elsewhere buit I could well like it but the risk is on you. I'm looking for music to listen to long term.
If you meet and understand the above, let’s work together. Don't be shy. I'm very generous and want to help. Just listen to the playlists on a frequent basis.

How to find me in Daily Playlists Premium
Due to the strange sort by options currently, just go to the 'search curators' box at the top and just type "possible music" and I should be the first option as shown below:
