Get notified about new releases of my favourite artists

For example:
I liked Three Days Grace a while back, and they released a new album this month. I get no notification from Deezer, but when I went to Browse -> Rock it is pinned there as album of the week. It's not in my "Hear This" tab as well, though I might have missed it. It would be really nice if any new release from the artists I liked would be suggested above the "popular" releases.

Hi there,

sorry for the late reply. Can you please be more specific?

So you would like to see in-app notifications if there is a new release from one of the artist that you have in your favourites? Is that what you mean?

Let us all know 😉

@Flo.Deezer Exactly! Maybe the tab 'notifications' could be stopped being used for recommendations (but still display changes people you follow make to playlists you follow as is) and instead of those recommendations e.g. "(one of your favourite artists) *insert name here* added a new album/single to their page. Check it out now!"
This way we will never miss another new release if the function applies to ever single change of every single one of our favourite artists. Thanks!

Alright, thanks for this. It has been noted!

Make more users vote for it to get more attention 😉

How can I make users vote 😃

Hi @N2gether sorry for the very late reply.

I have moved your topic to this one here as they are very similar.

Please vote for this one and thanks for your suggestion 😉

Hello @Flo.Deezer ,

Yes, push notifications are close to what I was thinking.

In my case - I use web version, so I was thinking that when you open https://www.deezer.com/, and scroll to bottom where "New Releases" are shown, they could be more personalized. Currently it shows mostly Pop music there, so I believe it just shows new releases that are more popular overall. However, I think it would be nice if it would show new releases from artists you like first.

@N2gether that is a good idea too but do you only mean that you can see new releases listed by renowned artists that would have been listed in 'Rock anyway e.g. as you mentioned 3DG or do you also mean that this personalised space shows all album and single releases by bands and artists that have like 10 followers bit you also are following them?

@Ego12Draconis what I suggest is that the "New Releases" on the front page could show more personalized options. For example, on my front page there is https://www.deezer.com/en/album/57375112 this suggestion. Not only this is totally irrelevant for me, but I think it's hard to consider this a "new release", since it's a 1.5 months old. Instead, before showing the popular options, it could probably suggest something from the artists I liked. Let's say new albums from the artists you like from the last week or two could come first, I am not sure how long a release is considered new in Deezer.

@N2gether I understand. Still I'd rather have a new releases tab where EVERY change/release by artists you like is shown. So you literally literally cannot miss it anymore

Identical as badges for new added tracks on playlists. Should be useful for knowing what an artists has a new release.

@Ego12Draconis Just following up on this. I noticed that I now get in app push notifications for new releases of my favourite artists. Have you noticed the same?

If so, I'd change the title of this idea to only focus on the tab with personalised new releases 🙂

@Anja I don't get any notifications at all, except for the permanent bar that let's you control the player

Thanks for the heads up. Not sure if you mentioned it before, but what's the device (model) you're using?

mostly it is a Samsung galaxy s7 I'm using for Deezer but I'll get myself a new one very soon

It is my understanding that notifications are already there. But Deezer has been having problems with notification so they are currently not working.

Hi there, sorry my late reply. Do you mean to be notified when there is a new release from an artist you follow?

Yes, exactly. Also, a blue dot symbol alike new songs in playlists to symbolize that an artist (in favorite artists page) has a new release. Would be very useful if you have many favorite artists. Notifications from the app would also be nice.

Thanks

This is the most important feature for me. I use streaming services for music discovery and if Deezer is unable to get me personalized notifications for songs my followed artists release, it is no different than other HiFi services IMO. Finding out I'm missing new tracks since the feature isn't working simply is not acceptable.

Hi Alexandru. thanks for the clarification. Got it 🙂 We've passed this on to the team and hope we'll have an update in the future 🙂

I'm pretty sure that this feature was included a couple years ago, even before they started showing new releases of popular artists. Why they don't still have it is beyond me. In my opinion it should be part of the home page!

It is very difficult to follow the updates of my artists and constantly check for new releases. The "New Releases" page is not convenient to use. In most cases, I discover new releases of my artists, exploring their profiles. It would be great to have notifications about new releases of artists from my library.

How is this something that has to be voted on? What's even the reason to add artists to your favorite list if you don't get notifications about new stuff they put out?

Anything new ? Its the main idea I'm not like spotify or deezer, only youtube can show you up new songs from your artists.
Please do something.

Thanks! Our devs are working on it and hopefully soon this feature will be improved!
