How to break the Spotify algorithm?

A&R DUTY


If you are trying to beat the Spotify shuffle algorithm, you need to remember their 30-second rule.

Your song should grab the listener immediately and make them stay for more than 30 seconds.

Otherwise, regardless of how many listeners initially listen to your song, it won’t count if they don’t pass that first 30 seconds.

Also, remember that timing is everything on Spotify.

For example, the first 12-24 hours after your track drops are crucial to your success or to gain momentum.

One of the better ways to get the algorithm to notice you in this timeframe is by getting a pre-saves boost before your release date.

Besides that, you have to pay attention to the competition, such as similar artists that may also be applying the same strategy as you.

For example, you want to avoid dropping a track on the same day as popular artists.

By avoiding this, you can naturally increase your chances to beat the Spotify algorithm.
