Sound Surfer Playlists
Spotify playlister on a mission to help out independent music artists and provide a platform to increase their reach! Currently curating 6 playlists: 1) Hip hop heads (Conscious hiphop, Oldschool rap, Boombap, UK rap) 2) Laid-back Lofi (Lofi hip hop, Chillhop, Jazzhop, Study beats) 3) Easy Listening (Adult contemporary, Singer songwriter, Acoustic, Indie folk, Soft rock, Folk) 4) Soulful Sounds (Alternative / Indie R&B / Neo-Soul / Contemporary R&B / Retro Soul / Funk) 5) Harmonic house (Afro house, Progressive house, Melodic house, Deep house, Organic House) 6) Radiating Rock (hard rock, alternative metal, metalcore, heavy metal, progressive metal, stoner rock, grunge) I want to help artists out in two ways: 1: ideally, if the song fully matches a playlist I'll be more than happy to share it on my Spotify playlist and thus get you more new listeners. I will put the shared song in my top 15 for at least 1 month! 2: If a song doesn't match the playlist, I'm happily provide you with honest and constructive feedback in a gentle manner to help you out!

Hi TKAT, I really liked the smooth funky groove of the instrumental but for me the vocal sounded much too loud in the mix and the timing didn't feel very cohesive with the groove of the instrumental. I'm sorry to turn this down for now.
1 month ago · Open threadHi Clockwork Lemons, I loved the lush retro feel of the instrumental and found the production quite well done but unfortunately I wasn't as drawn to the vocal because the melody had a slightly predictable pattern and didn't hit me in a catchy way. I'm sorry to turn this down for now.
1 month ago · Open threadHi Mama No Likey, really loving the intensity of the track, and I think the vibe/energy would work really well in my playlist selection. I'll be adding this for sure, keep it up!
1 month ago · Open threadHi there DJ Whit Allen, while I liked the energy of the track, the mix just sounded a tad muddy for me, particularly the low end. Also, the synth pluck had too much of a static unchanging melody for me and wasn't very catchy. I'm sorry to turn down your track for now but keep it up despite my feedback.
2 months ago · Open threadHi there DFalcon, the guitar melodies drew me in but unfortunaetly the song's mixing quality didn't meet my expectations as the vocals sounded much too airy and it had a really sibilant quality. I'm afraid I won't be including your song in my selection today.
2 months ago · Open threadHi Two Spoons, I loved the wholesome vibe and catchy vocals. I'll be adding this for sure, keep it up!
3 months ago · Open threadHi Stew Cutler and Tom Wilson, I'll be turning down your track for now because unfortunately my rock playlist focuses on much more aggressive and gritty sound and leans more towards metal. My R&B playlist leans more towards a hip hop/urban feel so this won't be a good match there either.
3 months ago · Open threadHi Chris Portka, I loved the smooth bass groove and the soulful vibe but unfortunately this doesn't fit my r&b playlist as they vocals were too sparse and lacked lyrics. This also doesn't quite have the punchier drums to fit my house playlist. I'm sorry to turn down your track for now.
3 months ago · Open threadHi Late Flight, I'm bummed to turn down your track but the vocal performance felt really stiff and uncanny and the mixing quality of the song didn't meet my quality standards as it had a thin, airy, and fuzzy sound.
3 months ago · Open threadHi Lex Ventura, I'm bummed to turn this down but it's too upbeat and lively for the slow vibe of my indie folk playlist and doesn't fit the more aggressive and gritty energy of my rock playlist.
