How to Submit Your Music to Blogs and Magazines for Free
Many artists search for "how to send music to blogs" and end up paying for services before trying the free route. You can reach real editors without spending anything, provided you send the right material to the right people.
1. Pick outlets that match your genre
Read a few recent posts before you pitch. If a blog covers indie folk and you make drum and bass, your email will go nowhere no matter how good the track is.
2. Send a complete, easy package
- A streaming link (Spotify, Bandcamp or SoundCloud) that works without a login
- A short bio and a two-sentence release description
- High-quality press photos with a photographer credit
- Your social links so outlets can tag you
3. Keep the pitch short
Editors receive a lot of email. Lead with who you are, what the song is and why it fits their site, in under 150 words. Attachments are risky, so use links.
4. Or submit once and let us do the outreach
BRiNSPOT lets you submit your bio, release and photos one time. Our editors review it and, once approved, share it with magazines, blogs and digital outlets in our network. It is free.
