Earlier this month, SoundCloud finally launched their own all-in-one platforms for artists, SoundCloud for Artists! Launched as a centralized home for all things distribution, promotion, monetization, and more, this platform is long awaited and we’re excited to share the details here. 🔊Here’s what’s new…
SoundCloud Officially Launches SoundCloud For Artists
“We believe that what’s next isn’t determined by algorithms and gatekeepers, but that the true path toward a long and successful career is best achieved by cultivating deep fan relationships and community. We believe that artists should be rewarded directly by their fans, so we launched Fan-Powered Royalties, a revolutionary new model that allows artists to be paid based on fans’ actual listening habits.” states the official announcement from SoundCloud.
New Dashboard
The new SoundCloud for Artists dashboard provides simplified access to all of your monetization, distribution, and promotional tools in one, easy to access place. You can also take a deep dive into who your biggest fans are and what tracks they’re listening to the most through artist insights.
In addition, all your existing tracks and releases have already been automatically migrated to your new dashboard.
