How to get your music onto Spotify

Updated: Sep 22, 2021



Most articles you read about “How to get your Music onto Spotify,” will tell you how to upload your music and cover art.


But, before you do that, you need a professional recording.


It could be that you are a technology-whiz kid and you can manage the recording and production of your songs. But if you're not, the information may feel like a jumbled mess.


Here's an excerpt on how to format a song for Spotify.


Spotify can support either FLAC or WAVE format, but they recommend using FLAC as it’s much easier for Spotify to work with. Target the loudness level of your master at -14 dB integrated LUFS and keep it below -1 dB TP max. This is best for the lossy formats Spotify uses and will ensure no extra distortion is introduced in the transcoding process. The entire album will play back at -14 DB LUFS from start to finish, and the gain compensation applied by Spotify won’t change between tracks. If it is too soft, it means that your master is probably more compressed than other tracks. Because Spotify level matches, the most dynamic masters will stand out as the loudest. 16 bit (sample size) 44.1 kHz (sample rate) 1411 kbps (bit rate) stereo WAV files**


Let’s be honest. You are a songwriter. A soulful, truth-telling, musical storyteller.
