Welcome to the community! We do things differently here. There are no black-box algorithms deciding who gets heard and who doesnβt. You are the algorithm here. The more you interact, the more the community grows.
Here is how to get the most out of your experience:
- How to Share Your Music
Start a Discussion: Click the βStart a Discussionβ button or at the top the chat bubble and press post music at mobiel music icon
Pick a Tag: Select the category that fits your post (e.g., Feedback, Promo, Production). This helps the right people find your work.
Be Descriptive: Donβt just drop a link. Tell us about the track, what you struggled with, or what kind of feedback you are looking for. A little context goes a long way.
- How to Connect (Tagging & Following)
Tagging: Want to get someoneβs attention? Type @ followed by their username (e.g., @Tank_Marwin). They will get a notification, and itβs the best way to start a conversation.
Following: See a user or a discussion you like? Click the βFollowβ button (often a star or bell icon). Youβll get notified of new activity, so you never miss a beat.
Private Messages (DM): Want to chat privately? Click on a userβs profile icon. If they have messaging enabled, you will see a βMessageβ or βSend Messageβ button. Use this for collabs or personal questions.
- Sharing Without Algorithms (The Chatsong Philosophy)
On social media, you are fighting a machine. Here, you are building relationships. Here is how to grow your reach without βhackingβ an algorithm:
Give to Get: The best way to get eyes on your music is to show interest in others. Spend 5 minutes listening to a fellow memberβs track and leave a comment. They will notice you, and they will be much more likely to check out your music in return.
The Interactive Chart: Donβt just post a link and vanish. Submit your music to our Interactive Top 40. When you share your music elsewhere, donβt just link to the trackβlink to the chart and say: βIβm competing for a spot on the Chatsong Top 40, go vote for my track!β
Direct Engagement: Instead of hoping a βfeedβ shows your post, invite people directly. Send a DM or tag them in a discussion: βHey @username, I just uploaded a new track and would love your take on the mix.β
