Overview

Whether you’re pitching for sync, sharing with press, or sending music to collaborators, your Artist Page lets you present everything in one clean, accessible place - from desktop or mobile.

In this guide, you’ll learn how to:

• Upload and manage audio files
• Add essential metadata
• Create and customize an Artist Profile
• Design and publish an Artist Page
• Share your page professionally

Step 1: Upload Your Files

Start by uploading your audio and media files into DISCO. You can:

• Drag files into the Playlist Creator
• Import from Dropbox, Google Drive or Box

Once uploaded, your tracks are ready for organization and editing.

WAVs vs MP3s — What You Need to Know

WAV

• High quality
• Slower to stream
• Typically does not carry metadata

MP3

• Smaller file size
• Streams easily
• Carries metadata

When you upload a WAV, DISCO automatically generates a streaming MP3.
Uploading an MP3 does not create a WAV.

Hover over the Track Info icon to see available formats (you can also customize the info displayed on the hover):

Step 2: Add Metadata

Metadata makes your catalog searchable, professional, and ready for opportunities.

General Metadata

Complete the essential fields:

• Title
• Artist
• Album
• Genre
• Artwork
• Lyrics (if applicable)

Best practices:

• Keep fields clean and consistent
• Use your own name if the artist name is unknown
• Always include contact information in the Comments field
• Add artwork — even a simple logo improves presentation

‍

Sync Licensing Metadata

If pitching for sync, include:

• Song Publishing splits
• Sound Recording ownership splits
• Contact info for all rights holders

“One Stop” means you control 100% of both master sound recording and song publishing.

Accurate metadata builds trust and speeds up clearance.

‍

Learn how to fill out the metadata for more complex scenarios, including multiple writers, publishers, covers, etc.

Step 3: Design Your Artist Page

Now it’s time to present your work professionally.

Build Your Playlist

• Compile your strongest tracks and videos
• Add press photos if relevant
• Use sections to group themes or categories
• Feature at least one track above the first section

Save the playlist and open the Presentation tab

• Select the Artist Page template

• Choose/Select an Artist Profile (read more about this at the bottom of the article).

• Add or edit bio, photo, and social links

‍

• Embed YouTube, Vimeo, or uploaded videos

• Toggle the show lyric option (lyrics can be added to the metadata later)

Save the Artist page

Save your settings and preview the page before sharing.

‍

Step 4: Share Your Artist Page

Your page is now ready to send.

Open the playlist’s Share section from the playlist menu to:

• Email directly from DISCO
• Copy the playlist URL
• Preview the final design before sending

You now have a professional, mobile-friendly link you can share instantly.

‍

‍

Open the Public Playlist URL (below) in your browser to view the final design before sharing.

Artist Profiles vs Artist Pages

Artist Profiles (Internal)

You can edit profiles from the Artists section under Browse.

‍

• Add an image, bio and socials:

Artist Pages (External)

• A playlist presentation template
• Designed for sharing publicly
• Requires a linked Artist Profile
