What is the best way for an independent artist to grow on Deezer?


Userlevel 1

Hello,

What is the best way for an independent artist to grow on Deezer? Is it true that the more people listen to my music on Deezer, the more the Deezer algorithm will start recommending my music to others?

Thank you for the help!

Deezer  recommendations is based on  personalized soundtrack, which includes favorites and recommendations based on the content which are favorited on Deezer, including:

Favorite tracks ,track, album, artist, and playlist from Favorites 
Music which are  listen from the Deezer catalog
The genres which are listen and artists which are favorite

 

If others listen Flow and adding more content to their Favorites and listening to music across the app ,hether it’s an album, an artist or a track, Flow absorbs it all.

By telling Deezer what tracks, albums and artists we love or dislike, Flow can make better recommendations to suit our musical taste.

So, if more people listen same kind of music like yours ,then will be Deezer start recommending your music in Flow to others and then they will be listen you .

@Nina Nebo Thank you for the answer! In your answer you said “So, if more people listen same kind of music like yours ,then will be Deezer start recommending your music in Flow to others and then they will be listen you.” How does Deezer determine what music is similar to mine? Is it based on songs that are commonly placed near mine on playlists on Deezer? Is it based on what listeners of my music also listen to?

In Deezer we have a lot Music Generes ( rock ,pop ,metal ,R&B ,jazz ,dance and EDM etc.)
So, if certan people listen rock music then will Deezer recommending more rock songs in FLOW . If your music is in that genre then will be recomended to them .

I forgot to tell
if users have favourited artist and albums which genre is for example  rock then also will be recommended similar artist in Flow .

Also

Launching a mix inspired by a track which users love is the perfect way to discover new artists and songs that they probably never listened to; step out of your comfort zone and discover a new musical horizon! When they launch a mix inspired by any track, we ensure that the next song will have a similar style and feel, but we also make sure most of these songs are brand new to them!

Directly from the Music ♫ tab, in the Mixes inspired by section, Deezer will regularly suggest mixes inspired by the tracks which they recently been streaming; it's essentially a gateway to new discoveries!

@Nina Nebo Thank you so much for these awesome and informative answers. One final question based on your response. You said “So, if certan people listen rock music then will Deezer recommending more rock songs in FLOW . If your music is in that genre then will be recomended to them .” When it comes to which songs Deezer chooses to recommend from that same genre that the listener is listening to, are songs with higher popularity given priority? And if so, is having your fans favorite and stream your song a way to increase its popularity on Deezer?

I’m glad if I help you  @elmtoivyrecords !

If is song more popular ,then is more streaming and if song have more streaming then is more popular .

😉

Deezer algorithm (artificial intelligence or AI )understand musical preferences of users and not only interprets user data but also continuously learns and evolves.
Each user’s have listening history, favorite artists, genres, and even time of day, Deezer’s algorithm studies and analyzing all and in the end can give recomandation to user .

@Nina Nebo So what you’re saying is: Popularity is not the only factor that determines what song gets recommended to a user, but it is one of the factors. Correct?
