Wheel of Playlist:
– Choose a song

Your song will remain in that position until someone else spins the same number which will knock your song off the playlist until you spin again.
DistroKid’s new Promote Yourself tab has tons of great tools for connecting your music with fans and labels, like the Promo Card library. Select your release instantly generate dozens of mockups to promote your release on social media. There are plenty of great looking styles to choose from that can be downloaded with a single click.
DistroKid offers several options on the new Enhance Your Music tab.
In addition to submitting your lyrics you can now add Synced Lyrics. This is the feature that makes your lyrics sync up perfectly with the song as it plays, karaoke style.
Every DistroKid artist can easily create synced lyrics by uploading their lyrics and pressing space to trigger each line of the lyrics. The Synced lyrics are a great feature to add a simple lyric video to your playback. DistroKid increases the chance your song will be found the Google by allowing your lyrics to show up in search results and other online services.
The last tool is probably my favourite and that’s Spotify Canvas. Thru your Spotify for Artists page, DistroKid artists are able to upload a 3-8 second video that will loop throughout the play thru of your song. Very cool feature that will make your Spotify release really pop!
