Disappointing to be rejected but got a 50% refund

My song which has had previous numerous playlistings and for which I've had no previous negative feedback, I sent to Greaserelease as a 'test' to see how reliable a service it might be........The email response was full of glowing comments initially, until the 'however' part and they admitted they don't (at the time of writing) have playlists to accommodate a 'slow paced' song (despite the song being 122 BPM - typically classified as a moderate-to-fast, energetic tempo, often described as Allegro (fast, quick, and bright). On the plus side, Tushar and the team were very courteous, offering a 50% refund which I have accepted. So this review which was originally 1 star has now been upgraded to 3 stars to reflect the more positive outcome.

Hi Erm.

We pitch your music to 80-90% of the curators on our network and we can’t possibly guarantee placements since that’s considered illegal (Payola) and goes against Spotify’s TOS. This is why the fees you pay is for the curators' time and effort and not for a guaranteed placement.

This is also how all the submission platforms work (Submithub, Groover, PlaylistPush etc) and we aren’t doing anything different here. We’ve also clearly mentioned how the service works on our FAQs and there’s a disclaimer on our website right before you hit the ‘Submit’ button and make the payment as well. We’ve been very transparent with how our service works right from the start.

Regardless, we're sorry you aren't happy with the results, please send in a mail to support@greaserelease.co and we'd love to resolve this :)

A very easy process

A very easy process. We like to test the water with any new promo company we use, so we tried the one track playlist option for 19 dollars. After a few days we received an email to show the track is now on a large, genre specific playlist. The playlist has an average rating and is at least regularly updated and has an organic, real following, so should get us a few streams. I think bang for buck, this is ok. Will investigate a bigger, more strategy driven campaign with Greaserelease.

Good playlisting option!

Grease Release is a good playlisting service, their process is simple & clear, and the results have been good so far. I'm able to track the progress on the playlists through my Spotify for Artists platform. Writing this a month after my tracks were added to the playlists. Looking forward to sending them more tracks, definitely worth a try. :)

Greaserelease came up trumps once again with their very professional approach to helping the independant music artist. It's a place where you'll find great playlists, no bots so you don't have to worry about what Spotify might do. Highly Recommended and Five stars all the way *****

The songs were placed in playlists for many followers, but there are very few active listeners. In the end, no significant streams were generated.

The service seems to be a scam

The service seems to be a scam. They sent an email trying to justify doing nothing with my song. I don't recommend this service to anyone.

Hi Alex,

Our process is exactly as outlined on our site. We submit tracks to independent curators for consideration, but placement is never guaranteed. The decision to add or reject a track is entirely up to the curator, based on their own technical and creative criteria. When a track isn’t chosen, we pass along their feedback as transparently as possible.

I know this doesn’t change your experience, but I want to assure you there’s no “scam” here. We work like every other submission platform out there. That said, we genuinely hate seeing artists dissatisfied and we'd love the opportunity to resolve this. Please feel free to reach out to us at support@greaserelease.co

Best,

YAY! My song was placed.

YAY, I was placed on a place list which was a beautiful surprise. They were on time and did exactly what they said they would do. I will be submitting my futures songs as well. I do think it would be really cool to get feedback for the songs placed as well so that I know why my song was placed and what they liked about it. Feedback is invaluable. If you’re hesitant to submit don’t be :)

Mike Storey Testimonial

I do like the company overall and appreciate the opportunity and honest feedback. I wish however, that the company would examine the submitted tracks and submit them to the Playlists that best fit the vibe of the song so that there is a higher chance of acceptance during submissions.

Freindly and efficient service

Having signed up to their promotional newsletter, GreaseRelease had sent me some honest and useful messages about the general nature of seeking Spotify playlists and I decided to give them a try to see what they were like themselves. It is the first time I had used the services of an actual company for such a purpose and I decided to submit five GM Jon songs. The process was very simple online - just answering a few questions and giving the link to the songs on Spotify. Not having a lot of spare time, this was a considerable benefit. The website promised feedback within a week and just short of a week the feedback did indeed come. They had liked all the songs, two were politely declined with some explanation and three have been placed on playlists. One of the playlists had over 70,000 likes and I was hoping it would generate a lot of listens. So far the numbers have been lower than I expected, but it is still a useful way to get some new people to hear your music. I say below expectation since I had been listed previously on a list with less likes that had generated more listens per day - I guess it is something to do with how many active listeners the playlists enjoy.
Anyway overall GreaserRelease provides a good and friendly service. They genuinely listen to your music and if it is good it will get a positive response. I intend to use them again. Jonathan Levitt (GM Jon)

I am a new artist and I haven't applied to many playlists yet. Greaserelease is the first playlist which chose one of my songs and I am really grateful! Thank you so much for your support. I appreciate it a lot! <3 Will definitely collaborate with you on my future songs ^_^

Greaserelease was super easy to work with and they delivered as promised. What I really like about them is that they vet music accordingly and will not just take anyone, which makes them that much more reputable in my books. I currently have one track on a very large Spotify playlist that is bringing in a good number of listeners daily.
