Contrary to most commenters, I'd believe there might be an audience for this.

All the rivalry and shady tricks on Spotify suggest that the competition to get attention as an emerging artist is huge.

What you mentioned about dropbox and screen recording was a great observation. I would double down on the niche and see how else are artist trying to gain an edge when promoting.

I think we here don't really appreciate how narrow the average online producers' technical expertise is.

Hey, thanks for the feedback and helpful advice. It's good that you mentioned attempts to "hack the Spotify algorithm". As an artist I can say that's really common, especially for aspiring artists.

And the thing about technical expertise of music producers: people commented about downloading open source visualizers and all that stuff is "easy to do" which is in reality it isn't, because it's hard to nerd and dive onto tech stuff when you work on music.
