Why does release day matter?
Spotify's algorithm gives more weight to initial streams. Releasing when your audience is most active increases early plays and algorithmic momentum.
When do Spotify editorial playlists update?
Spotify updates most editorial playlists on Fridays. Submit your music at least 4 weeks before release for consideration on New Music Friday and genre playlists.
Should I avoid releasing when big artists drop?
For emerging artists, yes. Major releases dominate playlists and social media. However, your core audience will still find you, so consistent releasing is more important.
