Now, artists can choose to add a pre-save campaign alongside their Sound drop. Fans can pre-save the song through Sound to unlock exclusive access to hear it before anyone else. You’ll also get a free collectible to prove you were there early.
For Artists
This tool helps you build hype for your next release and reward your closest fans by granting them early access to your music. The more Pre-saves you get, the bigger the streaming boost when your song drops on DSPs.
How do I enable Spotify Pre-saves?
You can enable the Spotify Pre-save feature when uploading your drop, on the "Drop Configuration" step.
Once you have toggled on the Spotify Pre-save for your drop, you will need to put the Spotify URI for your track.
How do I find my Spotify URI?
- Log in to your Spotify for Artists account and go to your Upcoming Releases section.
- Once you find your release, click on "Copy URI" next to the album cover.
- Paste that into the "Spotify Album URI" field on Sound.xyz
For Fans
You get exclusive access to hear unreleased music from your favorite artists before anyone else in the world. The free collectible — dropped to you for free when the song is later released — proves that you’re an early supporter.
You will then need to connect your Spotify and click Approve. Once done you will have successfully pre-saved the song and will be airdropped a Free Edition once the public sale starts.
A seamless experience
We made this a completely frictionless experience with no gas fees and no mint fees. As always, artists have complete control over their drop. This tool is completely optional and the digital collectible is a simple cover art (no audio included). Artists remain in control of the price and supply of their Limited Edition.
