Promote Your Music on Reddit | Music Promotion SubReddits

Christopher Carvalho

Reddit is the “front page of the internet”.

A great community where people tell stories, share content, and discuss all manner of things.

Reddit is also home to a strong culture of independent music lovers, but you have to be mindful when going in there to promote your own stuff.

The key is to find the right subreddits (Reddit groups) for you and your music, otherwise you’ll come off as spammy and instantly get downvoted.

Below I have listed some music-centered reddit communities where independent artists like you can share music.

Make sure you read the rules and guidelines for every community that you intend to post to.

r/Music

https://www.reddit.com/r/Music

r/music is a huge sub, and possibly not the best place to start, but worth a punt all the same.

r/WeAreTheMusicMakers

WATMM is a fabulous place for music makers to connect and learn.

They also offer specific music promotion threads outside of the main feed which I have embedded below.

/r/WeAreTheMusicMakers Weekend Promotion Thread from WeAreTheMusicMakers

r/Listige

https://www.reddit.com/r/Listige/

Listige is an interesting concept.

It’s democratic system of playlist placement based on upvoted content that gets automatically funneled into their own Spotify and Youtube playlists.

r/NewMusic

https://www.reddit.com/r/newmusic/

A subreddit specifically designed for new music. Post here on release.

r/IndependentMusic

https://www.reddit.com/r/independentmusic/

For the indies.

A great community of independent music lovers.
