Create an EPK in DISCO

A DISCO EPK is built around a specific release or campaign - bringing music, visuals, press materials, and supporting assets together in one page for a defined moment in time. Unlike an Artist Page, which is an ongoing artist presence you return to and refine, an EPK is project-specific and designed to give press, promoters, and industry contacts everything they need for a particular release.

CONTENTS

Step 1: Upload your audio and media files

Start by uploading the assets you want to include. This might include:

main audio tracks
instrumental versions
music videos
press photos
album artwork
bios or press releases
PDF documents
ZIP files such as stems or media packs

If you are uploading WAV or AIFF files, DISCO will automatically create MP3s for streaming.

Step 2: Clean up metadata

Before building the page, check that the audio files are clearly labeled and professionally presented. Important fields often include:

artwork
artist
album
year or release date
comments with contact information
lyrics where relevant

For tracks with alternate versions, use clear naming such as Instrumental, Clean, Explicit, Remix, or feat. [Artist]. Clean metadata helps recipients understand what they are hearing and makes the page more useful in professional settings.

Step 3: Organize the playlist

Create a playlist containing the core audio tracks and supporting assets. Use sections to group content clearly - for example main tracks, instrumentals, and media files. Arrange everything in the order you want recipients to experience it.

Step 4: Open the Presentation tab

Save the playlist and open the Presentation tab. For most EPKs, the Album Page template is the best choice, though an Artist Page may also work depending on the project.

Step 5: Design the EPK

Complete the main presentation elements:

hero image
album art
release date
bio or press release text
social links
embedded video

You can also adjust the theme, branding, and additional settings such as lyrics display or download access. The goal is one page that gives recipients everything they need to understand and engage with the project.

Step 6: Review settings and preview the page

Before sharing, review the page carefully. Check that the most important track appears prominently, media files are included where needed, images display correctly, social links work, embedded video loads properly, and the text is clean and current. Open the public page in your browser to see exactly what recipients will see.

Step 7: Share your EPK

Once the page is ready, open the Share area from the playlist menu. From there you can email the EPK directly from DISCO, copy the playlist URL, or adjust access settings if needed.

You now have a single professional link that can be used for press, promo, sync, industry outreach, or general presentation.

Wrap up

A DISCO EPK helps you present a project clearly and professionally without scattering files across multiple links and attachments. Strong assets, clean metadata, and a well-organized playlist are all it takes to create a polished destination that is easy for others to engage with.
