GIGMIT FAQ: HOW TO ADD SONGS & WHAT’S A FAN BASE MODULE

 

It’s very necessary that you connect songs and videos with your Artist Page (EPK). No media = no visibility = no gigs, signings. So let’s talk about how to get your Artist Page especially with Spotify ready. 

Your Media Box represents your most powerful songs. The connection to Spotify also represents the data for the FAN BASE and the FAN LOCATION Module. 

How to Add Songs & What’s the FAN BASE Module

Do you want to make the most out of your gigmit Artist Page? Keeping it up-to-date and ensuring promoters can groove to your music is key! That’s where adding songs to your gigmit Artist Page comes in. You have the flexibility to integrate up to 5 tracks from your Spotify, SoundCloud, Mixcloud, or Bandcamp. Additionally, please remember to make sure your songs are set to “public” so they show up in your Media Box and can be played.

Pro tip: Don’t forget to provide valid song URLs to link your artist page with your amazing tunes. Let’s get your gigmit Artist Page rocking!

How to connect Spotify

If you happen to encounter an error while connecting to Spotify, please take a moment to review your link and remove the ‘/intl-de‘ or ‘/intl-en‘ segment. Try the connection again. If the issue persists, kindly contact support@gigmit.com.

 

How to manually add/remove songs

  • Paste the song’s URL link
  • Click on “Add”

Done! You can add up to 5 songs, which makes it much easier for promoters to quickly get a good idea of your music style, your talent, and if you fit what they are looking for. If you want to remove a song, click on the recycle bin icon and confirm with “Remove this song”.

How to Link your Soundcloud to your Artist Page

  • Log in

  • Click on the “connect” button next to “Soundcloud”

To connect songs from SoundCloud / Bandcamp / Mixcloud to your artist page, simply go to the songs section of your page and click

 

Click on the “Enter song URL” text box

Enter your song URL 

Click “Add”

You can add your top five songs to your artist page and this makes it much easier for promoters to quickly get a good idea of your music style, your talent and if you fit what they are looking for.

What Is the FAN BASE Module Good for?

The FAN BASE Module is a powerful tool showcasing your Fan Growth over the last 28 days since the connection with Spotify was established. Furthermore, the growing numbers not only demonstrate your project’s potential but also make your profile more attractive to bookers. Additionally, they increase your visibility and significantly boost your chances of getting booked.

Additionally, when you connect your Spotify account, you’ll effortlessly appear in the gigmit FAN CHARTS, catching the attention of local promoters who are actively seeking fresh talent to book.

To take the stage and secure bookings, make sure to keep your gigmit Artist Page up-to-date, add your best songs, and connect with Spotify.
