What do the curator filters do?

The filters down the left side of the curator list narrow it to the curators that fit what you're looking for. Change one and the list updates right away. Some only show up when they apply to you, like the favorites and history ones.

Genres

Pick the genres that fit your song. By default you'll see curators who accept at least one of them. Switch "or" to "and" to see only curators who accept all of them.

Additional filters

• Recommended picks: narrows a long list to the curators where you have the best chance, based on genre preferences and approval rates. Curators who've approved you before always stay in.
• Really Good Bloggers: blogs that value written reviews over any other kind of share.
• Listed on Hype Machine: blogs that Hype Machine tracks.
• Response rate above 80%: curators who respond to at least 80% of what they're sent.
• Hide outlets in "weekend mode": leaves out curators who are taking a break.
• Shares AI music / Doesn't share AI music: shows curators by whether they're open to AI songs. If your song is flagged as AI, the first one is switched on for you.
• Only show ones with my notes: curators you've written a note about.
• My favorites: curators you've favorited. See the "How do I find curators I have favorited?" article.
• Hide the ones I don't like: on by default. Keeps curators you've hidden out of the list. See the "How do I hide or block a curator?" article.
• Previously approved: only curators who have approved one of your songs before.
• Curators who have approved this artist: only curators who have approved a song by the artist you're submitting.
• Shares across multiple platforms: curators who share each song to 3 or more platforms.

Submission history

This appears when you've sent the song before. "Hide those I've already sent to" and "Hide already responded" are both on by default, so you don't send to the same curator twice. "Let me resend to outlets" turns both off. History is tracked per upload, so if you've uploaded the same song twice, each copy has its own. See the "How do I avoid submitting to the same curator twice?" article.

How do they share music?

Choose where you want the song to land: music blogs, YouTube channels, radio, playlists on Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, Apple or Deezer, SoundCloud uploads and reposts, or social media.

Approval rate

Set a low and a high percentage, then hit Update. Handy for skipping curators who approve almost nothing.

Country

Show curators from particular countries or regions.

Price

With premium credits, filter by how many credits a curator charges per submission.

Genre match, Quality and Engagement

Three sliders from 1 to 10. Drag either end to set a range. Genre match needs at least one genre selected. See the "What is the "Genre Match" score?", "Quality" and "Engagement" articles.

Credits

Shows curators who take premium or standard credits. While you're submitting, this is locked to the credit type you picked on the first step.

Select all

Ticks every curator left in the list. It's for premium submissions and needs at least one genre selected.
